PowerVR SGX530 vs ARM Mali-G72 MP3 vs PowerVR SGX543MP4

PowerVR SGX530

► remove from comparison

The PowerVR SGX530 is an integrated graphics card that can be found in mostly ARM based SoCs for tablets and smartphones. It offers 2 pixel and 1 vertex shaders that are usually clocked at 200 MHz. The GPU supports OpenGL ES 2.0 and was announced in July of 2005.

ARM Mali-G72 MP3

► remove from comparison ARM Mali-G72 MP3

The ARM Mali-G72 MP3 is an integrated mid-range graphics card for ARM based SoCs (mostly Android based). It was introduced early 2018 in the MediaTek Helio P60 and uses 3 clusters (hence the MP3 name). 

The G72 is based on the second generation of the Bifrost architecture and offers improvements in the machine learning efficiency and a bigger tile buffer for 16x anti-aliasing.

The GPU supports all modern graphics APIs like OpenGL ES 3.2, Vulkan 1.0, OpenCL 2.0, DirectX 12 FL11_1 and Renderscript.

PowerVR SGX543MP4

► remove from comparison

The PowerVR SGX543MP4 (series 5XT) is an integrated graphics card for ARM based SoCs. It is e.g. used in the Apple A5X and offers 16 unified shader cores that support OpenGL ES 2.0.
