Although more shader cores are available in the Kepler architecture as compared to the Fermi design, the Kepler shaders are still expected to be up to twice as power efficient. The GK107 Kepler core offers two shader blocks, called SMX, each with 192 shaders for a total of 384 shader cores that are clocked at the same speed as the central core. The Kepler architecture is the successor to the Fermi architecture that first appeared in laptops with the GeForce 400M series. Due to a higher core clock of up to 850 MHz the GT 650M is noticably faster than the 640M. The graphics card uses a 128-Bit wide memory interface with either the more common but slower DDR3 for VRAM or the more expensive and faster GDDR5. It is a Kepler-based GPU built on the GK107 architecture and is manufactured in 28nm at TSMC. The NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M is a mid-range, DirectX 11.1 compatible graphics card that was announced in the first quarter of 2012 for laptops.

The integrated HD audio processor is able to transmit HD Audio (TrueHD or DTS Master Audio) over HDMI and DisplayPort (e.g., for Blu-Ray videos). Other features include ZeroCore to reduce the power consumption when the display is turned off and Power Gating to power down areas of the chip that are not used. Furthermore, the M380 can directly support multiple monitors using Eyefinity Technology if Enduro is disabled. Called Enduro, the technology supersedes AMD's Dynamic Switchable Graphics and is similar to Nvidia's Optimus.

The R7 series also supports automatic graphics switching between the integrated GPU and discrete GPU. Multi-View Codec (MVC) and MPEG-4 part 2 (DivX, xVid) HD videos are compatible as well. The 640 shaders can be used with OpenCL 1.2 for general-purpose calculations (as 10 compute units).įeatures of the R7-M380 include video decoding for MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, VC-1, MPEG-2, and Flash directly by the AMD GPU. Therefore, demanding games are running in low to medium details. If slow DDR3 graphics memory is used, the performance should be somewhere close to a Radeon R9 M270 (see for gaming benchmarks). The R7 M380 is similar to the R9 M375 (which is slightly higher clocked) and therefore is position in the mid-range in 2015. Despite the similar name, the R9 M380 offers a better performance due to 2 more compute units and GDDR5 graphics memory. It is based on the a 28nm GCN core with 10 compute units and a 128 Bit DDR3 memory bus.
