Intel HD Graphics 4000 benchmarked

Ivy rocks! The integrated HD 4000 has become Intel's new backbone in the integrated GPU market. Not only does the new GPU trump the HD 3000 of yesteryear, entry-level GPUs from Nvidia and AMD may have a lot to fear as well. In this review, we go in detail with our initial gaming benchmarks of the Intel HD 4000.

"Intel has the upper hand by about 15 percent or more compared to AMD's Fusion Llano offerings." It's wrong, you always underestimate Llanos, HD4000 just only on A6 Llano level or slightly below that:

Sure, but those are desktop chips. Laptop Llanos as far slower.

Arc

Llano is faster in desktop configs (600MHz), but the mobile parts operate slower (443MHz).

Atom.A

The strongest mobile Llano with DDR3 1600MHz can make P894 points, which still lot more than desktop Ivy Bridge. http://3dmark.com/3dm11/3184019;jsessionid=1uge7da2zv79g1u3abt15rdqhm

Intel Mobiles are also slower than desktop version, so makes similar races:
i7 3920XM Extreme E. HD 4000 IGP: 615 Point http://amdfx.blogspot.com/2012/04/3dmark-11-trinity-a10-4600m-updated.html
A6-3400M with 6520G: 701 Point (own test)
A8-3500M with 6620G: 830 Point (own test)
A10-4600M with 7760D: 1135 Point http://amdfx.blogspot.com/2012/04/3dmark-11-trinity-a10-4600m-updated.html

Is there any manufacturer planning to build a subnotebook with these quads? Cooling a 45W chip wont be so hard i think...

Oh, COME ON!
How dare you tell that "The high specs ensure that we will not be bottlenecking the integrated GPU in any way." while you used 11-11-11 RAM!! And even more! It had 2T cycle time! The RAM itself is the video memory for integrated GPU! Why couldn't you use Corsair Vengeance 1600 RAM (cheap enough besides) and ensure that it works as specs say?

I suggest to retest
Intel HD graphics. Even though changes should be minimal, every percent of performance must be on count.

These tests are heavily biased towrds the HD 4000 which is using 1600 MHz memory. When Llano uses 1600 Mhz memory it's 15% faster on average than when using 1333 MHz memory. It's 20% faster when using 1866 MHz.

So no, mobile Ivy Bridge still isn't faster than Llano, and a fair test wouldhave shown this.

I am disappointed in NotebookCheck.

So you compare the 35W AMD A8-3520M and call it the most powerful integrated GPU with 6620G? (What about the 45W A8-3550MX which you have listed on your website 2.0Ghz to 2.7Ghz).

And you compare the 35W AMD with a 55W Intel. Do you think this is a fair comparison?

Could the low clock speed of the power efficient A8-3520M be hurting its performance?

Please compare the top ends with the top ends so I can get a real understanding of the power of the HD4000. I don't want to be guessing when buying. How can I know how well the 45W A8-3550MX performs in comparison to the HD4000???

Bonny

I've also just realized notebookcheck tests are suck; "HD Graphics 4000 was able to beat the HD 6620G in a fast Core i7-3820QM by about 15%" Ha ha ha ha....

Maybe Intel's dream, but if you want make fair test, than next time use A8-35x0MX with DDR3 1600MHz and use latest AMD driver. HD4000 nowhere will be faster!

Activision made Battlefield 3? Well that's news to me... and here I thought that it was a DICE/EA production. Silly me.

A few words about the article:

1) Unfortunately, there wasn´t much time to write it. I made it in two days between the Asus G75 and the MSI GT70 review. You can see that a little i guess  ;)

2) The verdict is updated since a couple of days (indeed, the sentence concerning Llano wasn´t really correct). And the translation from german to other languages can take a while.

3) The A8-3520M was the strongest Llano-CPU with enough gaming-benchmarks in our database. Of course, a MX-model would be more fair, but with Intels market-domination there are not a lot of AMD-notebooks coming to use.

Small update, we checked the smaller issues again with an Asus N56 sample provided by Intel and did not find any stutterings with Deus Ex. However, Black Ops still breaks down to 22fps even in the lowest detail settings. Fifa 12 and Metro also showed no problems (but we only noticed them with early dual-core samples).
As always all benchmarks for the HD 4000 can be found on the corresponding GPU page:

You are so biased towards Intel. You put desktop quad i7s with 1600Mhz RAM in the HD 4000 comp. You then can't compare it to the "top of the line Llano" when the Llano chips are lower power consumption laptop chips with 1333Mhz RAM. I guarantee you if you upgraded the Llano to a desktop version with faster clocked RAM it would do better than the HD 4000. I'm not sure what kind of comparison this is.
