AMD the famous processor manufacture recently launched the Radeon HD 6990M GPU (Graphics Processor Unit), AMD claimed the 6990M as the fastest single mobile graphics processor today. HD 6990M GPUs for notebooks which is soon replaced the AMD Radeon 6970M is now widely used. The AMD Radeon HD 6990M GPU was measured to be up to 25% faster than any other announced notebook enthusiast GPU. Furthermore, hardcore gamers can experience additional gaming performance through AMD CrossFireX technology.
AMD Radeon HD 6990M supports Microsoft DirectX 11 and 3D Stereo. The chip, which packs in 1.7 billion transistors, will have a clock speed of 715 MHz, 1120 stream processors, 2GB GDDR5 memory and 1.6 TFLOPS of computing power. HD 6990M also supports AMD’s CrossFireX technology
that combines the outputs of the two GPUs to improve the graphics performance of the notebook. It merge AMD’s HD 6990M and the previous A-Series Accelerated Processor (APU). The Radeon HD 6990M supports AMD Eyefinity technologies that can support up to six displays (via
DisplayPort and some complicated adapting), AMD App acceleration technology to improve video playback and Web browsing (in IE9 and Firefox, at least), and AMD HD3D technology for users who want to pop on some shutter glasses and tap into 3D games and content. The Radeon HD 6990M also supports OpenGL 4.1, AMD’s CrossFireX technology for multi-GPU support, and can handle DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort, and VGA output. The system sports 1120 stream processing units, 56 texture units, and a GGDR5 memory interface.
HD 6990 will be used on a notebook for gaming that require high performance graphics. On several benchmark test results released by AMD, the 6990M outperformed the Nvidia GeFOrce GTX 580M by about 20 percent on 3DMark Vantage and 3DMark11, and about 15 percent in Left 4
Dead 2. At the time of the announcement, AMD said that the 6990M will be available in the Alienware M18x, Clevo P150HM, P170HM, X7200, and select Eurocomm systems. With the battle for mobile GPU supremacy really heating up now, it will be interesting to see what NVIDIA will
be able to squeeze out of its Fermi architecture to try and claim its title back.
