ARM Mali-G68 MP4 vs IMG BXM-8-256 vs ARM Mali-G51 MP4

ARM Mali-G68 MP4

► remove from comparison ARM Mali-G68 MP4

The ARM Mali-G68 MP4 (or G68MC4) is an integrated mid-range graphics card for ARM based SoCs (mostly Android based). The MP4 version uses four of the six possible clusters / cores.

It was introduced mid 2021 in the Mediatek Dimensity 900. It is based on the Valhall architecture and is advertised by ARM as a "sub-premium GPU". It offers all features of the Mali-G78 series including improvements for battery runtime and machine learning.

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.

ARM Mali-G51 MP4

► remove from comparison ARM Mali-G51 MP4

The ARM Mali-G51 MP4 is an integrated mid-range graphics card for ARM based SoCs (mostly Android based). It was introduced mid 2018 in the HiSilicon Kirin 710 and uses 4 clusters (hence the MP4name). 

The G51 is based on the Bifrost architecture and is intended for cheap mainstream phones. ARM suggests typical clock speeds of 650 MHz with up to 6 cores (MP6).

The GPU supports all modern graphics APIs like OpenGL ES 3.2, Vulkan 1.0, OpenCL 2.0, DirectX 12 FL9_3 (versus 11 in the G7x line) and Renderscript.
