According to AMD, GDDR5 Vs DDR3
Make of it what you will.
i hate when companies do this... by looking at the bar alone, you think, "the bar length diff is huge... the performance difference is huge!" but it's far from reality. You can only compare the 6470M & 6490M because they are the same chip, but the difference isn't just simply because of the diff ram types.... the 6490M runs 50-100mhz faster than the 6470M and the performance gain isn't huge. most is under 20%
gddr5 is much much better for sure than ddr3, but the graph is just one of those pet peeves of mine
