Good investment as solid AMD office workhorse: Acer TravelMate P4 TMP414-42 laptop review
AMD Ryzen 5 8540U | AMD Radeon 740M | 14.00" | 1.4 kg
The AMD Radeon 740M is an integrated GPU in the Ryzen 7040 series for laptops (Phoenix, e.g. Ryzen 5 7540U). The iGPU is based on the new RDNA3 architecture and has only 4 of the 12 CUs (= 256 shaders) clocked at up to 2.5 GHz (depending on the CPU model). The 740M supports hardware raytracing, although the performance is too slow to use it in current games.
Due to the reduced core count and clock speed, the performance is clearly below the Radeon 760M and 780M.
Thanks to the modern 4nm process and clever power-saving features, the power consumption is comparatively low (according to AMD). The whole chip of the first two models can be configured between 15 - 30 Watt TDP.
