IMG BXM-8-256 vs Qualcomm Adreno 616 vs Qualcomm Adreno 610

IMG BXM-8-256

► remove from comparison Imagination IMG BXM-8-256

The Imagination IMG BXM-8-256 is an integrated graphics card for ARM-SoCs. It first appeared in the mid-range MediaTek Dimensity 930 (6nm) clocked at up to 900 MHz. The iGPU is based on the B-Series architecture that should be about 30% more power efficient than the previous generation (PowerVR). According to Imagination the BXM-8-256 MC1 (single core) offers 8 texels / clock and 256 FP32 / clock. The wavefront width is 128 Bit.

The GPU supports OpenGL ES 3.X, Vulkan 1.3, OpenCL 3.0, and Android NN HAL.

Qualcomm Adreno 616

► remove from comparison

The Qualcomm Adreno 616 is a mobile graphics card for upper mid-range smartphones and tablets (mostly Android based). It is included in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 SoCs and based on the Adreno 600 architecture (like the Adreno 630, which should be fully compatible in software).

According to Qualcomm up to 30% faster than the previous generation (Adreno 512 in the Snapdragon 660).

The GPU supports modern standards like Vulkan 1.0 (according to Wikipedia), OpenGL ES 3.2, OpenCL 2.0 and DirectX 11 (FL 11_1).

Qualcomm Adreno 610

► remove from comparison

The Qualcomm Adreno 610 is a mobile graphics card for mid-range smartphones and tablets (mostly Android based). It is included in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 SoCs and based on the Adreno 600 architecture (like the Adreno 630, which should be fully compatible in software).

In synthetic benchmarks, the Adreno 610 positions itself between the old Adreno 510 and Adreno 512 / 612

The GPU supports modern standards like Vulkan 1.0 (according to Wikipedia), OpenGL ES 3.2, OpenCL 2.0 and DirectX 11 (FL 11_1).
