ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470

ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470

The AMD ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 is a faster clocked HD 3450 and therefore also produced in 55nm and with DirectX 10.1 support (the enhancements over the HD 2400 series).

The 40 unified shaders count like 8 shaders on Nvidia cards (5-dimensional versus 1-dimensional).

The Avivo HD video support enables the gpu to decode HD videos (MPEG-2, H.264, VC-1).

The performance of the card can be suited for modest casual gamers. Demanding games like Crysis run only with very low details and resolution.

Compared to the desktop HD 3470, the Mobility version has a lower core clock speed and should perform a bit better than the desktop HD 3450.
