ARM Mali-T760 MP8 vs ARM Mali-T760 MP6 vs ARM Mali-T760 MP4

ARM Mali-T760 MP8

The ARM Mali-T760 MP8 is a fast mobile graphics solution that can be found in ARM SoCs like the Samsung Exynos 7420 Octa (Galaxy S6). The chip is available since Q1/2015 and is one of the fastest solutions of its class at the time of the introduction. Besides OpenGL ES 3.1, the GPU supports OpenCL 1.1 as well as DirectX 11. According to ARM, the Mali-T760 can be scaled from 1 - 16 cores/clusters.

The MP8 version offers 8 clusters clocked at up to 772 MHz (302 GFLOPS). In most benchmarks, the GPU is able to beat the competing Adreno 420 (Snapdragon 805) and PowerVR GX6450 (Apple A8). Only a few tablet chips like Tegra K1/X1 or the GXA6850 (Apple A8X) are still somewhat faster. Overall, the Mali-T760 MP8 is the fastest smartphone GPU in early 2015 and will handle even the most demanding Android games fluently in high resolutions.

Despite its impressive performance, the Mali-T760 MP8 / Exynos 7420 has a very modest power consumption thanks to an advanced 14 nm FinFET process (Samsung LPE). Therefore, it can be used even in smaller smartphones.

ARM Mali-T760 MP6

The ARM Mali-T760 MP6 is a mobile graphics solution for (mostly Android based) smartphones and tablets. The chip is available since Q1/2015 and for example integrated in the Exynos 5433 Octa SoC. Besides OpenGL ES 3.1, the GPU supports OpenCL 1.1 as well as DirectX 11. According to ARM, the Mali-T760 can be scaled from 1 - 16 cores/clusters.

The MP6 version offers 6 clusters clocked at up to 700 MHz (143 GFLOPS). According to first benchmarks, the performance is similar to the Adreno 420 and PowerVR GX6450. Therfore, even very demanding games of 2014 should run in high resolutions fluently.

ARM Mali-T760 MP4

The ARM Mali-T760 MP4 (or Mali-T764) is a mobile graphics solution primarily for Android smartphones and tablets. The chip has been available since Q1/2015 and can be found on the Rockchip RK3288 SoC. Besides OpenGL ES 3.1, the GPU supports both OpenCL 1.1 and DirectX 11. According to ARM, the Mali-T760 can be scaled from 1 to 16 cores/clusters.

The MP4 version offers 4 clusters clocked at up to 600 MHz. GPU performance is middle-of-the-road as of 2014 and most Android games as of today should run fluently.
