eTeknix came across leaked benchmark results from AMD that reveal the performance of the upcoming Radeon HD 8570 graphics card. The entry-level card was pitted against NVIDIA's GeForce GT 630, which it seems to beat without much effort.
The HD 8570 which we are looking at today features 384 stream processors/ GCN cores, 24 texture units and a core clock speed of 730MHz. The memory bus is 128 but with 4.6GHz GDDR5 or 1.8GHz GDDR3 versions available. With 384 GCN cores it has about 33% less than a HD 7750 so we should expect a performance drop of around 25% or more over the HD 7750. However, the testing that was done pitted the HD 8570 up against the Nvidia GT 630 graphics card in its performance exposé. The reason being is that the GT 630 (OEM) and HD 8570 (OEM) will probably be priced similarly – around the £45-50 mark.
