Radeon HD 8550G Game Requirement Analysis
Radeon HD 8550G is an integrated mobile GPU, first seen on the APU A8-5550M, based on the 32nm, Terascale 3 architecture.
It offer 256 Shader Processing Units, 16 TMUs and 8 ROPs, on a DDR3 memory interface of either a 128-bit bus width, if the laptop system RAM's is dual-channelled, or a 64-bit bus width, if not. The central units runs at 515MHz and goes up to 720MHz, in Turbo Mode. The memory clock can operate up to 800MHz, as the max memory supported by the CPU is DDR3-1600.
Its performance depends heavily on whether or not the memory is dual-channelled. Benchmarks put its performance on level with today's middle-class GPUs such as GeForce GT 625M or Radeon HD 7630M. Therefore, modern demanding games can be played with medium detail.
