Both the 5450 and 5570 passed our video test suite with ease, using approximately
the same amount of extra power doing so. These figures may seem high compared
to the numbers we typically get when testing integrated graphics, but remember
our test system configuration has an energy inefficient Pentium D processor,
so even minor CPU usage can increase the power demand significantly.
3D Performance
While 3DMark is a completely synthetic benchmark, it is a good general indicator
of 3D performance, particularly when the score differences are quite high.

The 5450 scored significantly higher in both 3DMark05 and 3DMark06 than any
IGP, similar to the GeForce G210M in the Asus
UL80Vt laptop. For reference, we managed to play Call of Duty 4 on the
UL80Vt at 1366x768 resolution fairly smoothly with most of the extra details
turned on and 2x anti-aliasing. It should also be noted that our HD 5450 sample
had memory clocked 100MHz higher than the reference speed. According to ATI,
this results in 5~6% higher scores in 3DMark Vantage. AiB partners do have the
option of using faster memory if they so desire. The 5570's scores were just
below that of the 4670.
