What it is
Our main score for this model, 1–10. It combines specs, expert reviews, best-of lists and owners.
How we count it
Parts: Technical score 40%, Reviews score 25%, List score 25%, Sentiment score 10%
Marks: Each part gets a mark out of 10. For reviews, lists and owners, a typical model in this category gets about 8 and the best one gets 10.
No data yet: A part with no data shows "?". It counts as the mark of a weaker model in this category (4 in 5 models with data score higher). This way, models with reviews, lists and owners usually come out ahead.

What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).

What customers like about AMD Radeon 880M

  • Delivers approximately 15% better performance than the previous-gen Radeon 780M in benchmarks like Time Spy
  • Excellent power efficiency, consuming only 10W to 20W while rivaling entry-level desktop performance
  • Capable of running modern esports and casual titles smoothly at 1080p
  • Supports modern features including Ray Tracing, DirectX 12 Ultimate, and AV1 video encoding
  • Ideal for slim ultrabook designs due to low heat and power requirements

What customers don't like about AMD Radeon 880M

  • Significant performance drop-off in demanding AAA titles, often requiring low settings or 720p upscaling
  • Notably slower than its sibling, the Radeon 890M, which features more compute units
  • Lacks hardware support for the VVC codec, unlike some newer Intel competitors
  • Performance is highly dependent on system RAM speeds and TDP limits set by the laptop manufacturer
  • Does not support AI-powered upscaling like NVIDIA's DLSS, though it supports AMD FSR

Verdict

The AMD Radeon 880M is an integrated graphics solution based on the 4nm RDNA 3.5 architecture (Strix Point), featuring 12 compute units, 768 shading units, 12 raytracing cores, and a boost clock speed reaching up to 2,900 MHz. Its primary pros include highly power-efficient operation at a 15W to 54W TDP configuration, DirectX 12 Ultimate hardware raytracing support, and robust casual gaming capabilities delivering a ~15% performance uplift over its predecessor. However, its cons include performance strictly throttled by the lack of dedicated VRAM due to its shared system memory dependency, lower peak performance compared to its sibling Radeon 890M, and a complete lack of hardware acceleration support for the emerging VVC video codec.
