Vivante GC4000 vs Vivante GC7000UL
Vivante GC4000
► remove from comparisonThe Vivante GC4000 is an integrated graphics card for ARM and MIPS based SoCs. It offers 8 VEC-4 or 32 VEC-1 shader cores. Built using the 40nm LP process at TSMC, Vivante specifies the card 200 M Tir/s geometry rate, 2.5 G Pixels/s texture rate and 45 GFLOPS processing power. It should be 5-8x faster than the GC800 but of course also larger than the GC 800 and GC2000.
Vivante GC7000UL
► remove from comparisonThe Vivante GC7000UL is an integrated low end GPU for ARM based smartphones and tablets. It is mostly used for Android based devices and the performance should be similar to the Adreno 305. It is used in the Marvell Technology Group Armada PXA1908 SoC (e.g. in the Samsung Galaxy Xcover 3).
The 3D performance is only suited for low resolution screens. In our review of the Xcover 3 for example Asphalt 8 ran fluently in high detail settings.
