GPU: AMD Radeon RX Vega 6 ( Ryzen 4000 Series) 

The AMD Radeon RX Vega 6 is based on the 5th Gen Vega architecture and 7 nm manufacturing process. Performance of the Vega 6 Graphics depends on a number of factors such as the configured TDP (12-25 Watts), Clock Speed, Cooling Solution, and RAM configuration. The integrated GPU greatly benefits from fast dual-channel memory.

The AMD Radeon RX Vega 6 (Ryzen 4000 series) graphics are almost 20 percent faster than the last-gen Vega 8 (2000/3000 series). When compared to its Nvidia counterparts the Vega 6 scales above the Mx230 and comes close to Mx150 and Mx330 in terms of performance.
