Radeon HD 6480G: FPS benchmarks and laptop guide

Radeon HD 6480G — 11 games benchmarked at 1080p, 2 models in the catalog.

Radeon HD 6480G — 11 games benchmarked at 1080p , 2 laptop models in the used-laptop catalog . This guide covers what the chip delivers in games, where it sits among mobile GPUs in 2026, and which laptops carry it.

The Radeon HD 6480G is a 2011 Llano APU integrated part — 240 shader cores sharing a 35W budget with the processor, the middle rung of AMD's first APU family. This guide covers its 11 recorded game benchmarks at 1080p and its two catalog hosts.

Where the HD 6480G sits in 2026

The composite ranks it #331 of 341 (score 0.6). The neighbors: HD 7340 (#328, 0.8), GT 730M (#329, 0.8) and HD 7310 (#330, 0.6) above; the Mobility HD 5470 (#332, 0.6), Quadro FX 880M (#333, 0.6) and HD 6470M (#334, 0.5) below. Bottom-ten — though its roster medians hint the CPU side of the APU aged better (best CPU score 40.4 in its fleet).

What the chip brings

The record lists 240 shader cores, a 35W envelope, a 32nm process and 0.21 TFLOPS, with system-shared memory. Public benchmark: PassMark 257. The 240-core count sits between its Llano siblings — the 7420G's 128 and the 7520G's 192 — a reminder that the family's tiers overlapped across APU variants.

FPS in games at 1080p

At the high preset: legacy ceilings (CS:GO/Overwatch 240, GTA V/PUBG 140), Valorant 27, Dota 2 12, The Witcher 3 6, Forza Horizon 4 5, Counter-Strike 2 3, Fortnite 2, Cyberpunk 2077 1 — one frame kinder than the smallest Llano trims on Dota 2 and Forza Horizon 4, otherwise the family's shared baseline.

Laptops that carry it

Two hosts: the Lenovo IdeaPad Z575 (2011, $122) — the archetypal budget A-series laptop of its year — and the HP ProBook 6465b ($140), the business variant of the same APU idea. One chip, one philosophy, two brands.

Bottom line

The HD 6480G is Llano's middle record: an APU whose processor half outlived its graphics half. For $122-140 the hosts are honest utility laptops — and this page exists so their owners know exactly which table their machine reads from.
