Our overall benchmark score measures CPU performance in gaming and compute scenarios. Use the table to the left to compare both GPUs, the advantages and disadvantages of each are shown. In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the HD 610 over the Radeon HD 6800. Let's move to the next page where we'll look into GPU heat levels and noise levels coming from this graphics card.In our benchmarks the HD 610 beats the Radeon HD 6800 in gaming performance.

Mind you that the system wattage is measured at the wall socket.

System Wattage with GPU in FULL Stress = 355W.We'll be calculating the GPU power consumption here, not the total PC power consumption.

On average we are using roughly 50 to 100 Watts more than a standard PC due to higher CPU clock settings, water-cooling, additional cold cathode lights etc. Next to that we have energy saving functions disabled for this motherboard and processor (to ensure consistent benchmark results). Our test system is based on a power hungry Core i7 965 / X58 system. We however are not disclosing what application that is as we do not want AMD/ATI/NVIDIA to "optimize & monitor" our stress test whatsoever, for our objective reasons of course. We decided to move away from Furmark in early 2011 and are now using a game like application which stresses the GPU 100% yet is much more representable of power consumption and heat levels coming from the GPU. If we take a very-harsh-on-the-GPU gaming title, then measure power consumption and then compare the very same with Furmark, the power consumption can be 50 to 100W higher on a high-end graphics card solely because of FurMark. Furmark is so malicious on the GPU that it does not represent an objective power draw compared to really hefty gaming. Note: there has been a lot of discussion using FurMark as stress test to measure power load. The before and after wattage will tell us roughly how much power a graphics card is consuming under load. We simply stress the GPU, not the processor. The methodology: We have a device constantly monitoring the power draw from the PC. Let's have a look at how much power draw we measure with this graphics card installed. No further configuration is required or needed unless you like to tweak the settings, for which you can open the Catalyst Control Center.

Once done, we boot into Windows, install the latest ATI Catalyst drivers and after a reboot all should be working. Preferably get yourself a power supply that has these PCIe PEG connectors native (converting them from a Molex Peripheral connector anno 2011 we feel is a no-go). Once the card is seated into the PC make sure you hook up the monitor and of course any external power connectors like 6 and/or 8-pin PEG power connectors.

Installation of any of the AMD Radeon cards is really easy.
