The Radeon HD 8530M was a mobile graphics chip by AMD, launched on January 10th, 2014. Built on the 28 nm process, and based on the Mars graphics processor, in its Mars S3 LE variant, the chip supports DirectX 12. Even though it supports DirectX 12, the feature level is only 11_1, which can be problematic with newer DirectX 12 titles. The Mars graphics processor is a relatively small chip with a die area of only 77 mm² and 950 million transistors. Unlike the fully unlocked Radeon HD 8670A, which uses the same GPU but has all 384 shaders enabled, AMD has disabled some shading units on the Radeon HD 8530M to reach the product's target shader count. It features 320 shading units, 16 texture mapping units, and 8 ROPs. AMD has paired 1,024 MB DDR3 memory with the Radeon HD 8530M, which are connected using a 64-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 650 MHz, which can be boosted up to 700 MHz, memory is running at 900 MHz.
Its power draw is not exactly known. This device has no display connectivity, as it is not designed to have monitors connected to it. Rather it is intended for use in laptop/notebooks and will use the output of the host mobile device. Radeon HD 8530M is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 3.0 x8 interface.
