Radeon R9 M280X Game Requirement Analysis
Radeon R9 M280X is an upcoming high-end mobile graphics Card, based on the 28nm GCN architecture.
Radeon R9 M280X offers a GPU codenamed Saturn XT which is at essence a mobile version of the Bonaire XT GPU. Thus, it offers 896 Shader Processing Units, 56 TMUs and 16 ROPs, on a 128-bit memory interface of fast GDDR5.
The central unit runs at 900MHz and goes up to 925MHz, in Turbo Mode, while the memory clock operates at 1000MHz. Expect a rated board TDP of 75W.
Its performance is therefore positioned between Radeon R7 260 and Radeon HD 7790 and thus the card is not suited for 1080p gaming but it needs to be paired with at least 8GB of RAM and a considerably powerful Dual-Core processor.
