Graphics Performance
The CMP 30HX scores 4,892 in the G3D Mark benchmark (the standard measure of rasterization GPU performance), placing it in the Budget tier as a Aging generation graphics card. It is built on the Turing (2018−2022) architecture (codename: TU116), manufactured on a 12 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 1408 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 88 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 48 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 5.027 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 1785 MHz from a base of 1530 MHz.
