I bought Lenovo Ideapad 305-15IBD and upgraded ram to 2x8GB DDR3L 1600 myself. Then I did some benchmark with Unigine Heaven on the GPU and found out Intel GPU outperform than AMD Radeon... Intel HD Graphics 5500 (Power saving mode)  AMD Radeon R5 M330 (High performance mode)  Intel HD Graphics 5500 (CMAA override)  How come...? This post has been edited by yapmeo: Sep 6 2015, 06:43 AM

How did you update the drivers? You got the one direct from AMD or just the drivers from Lenovo?
But If I'm not mistaken, the R5 M Series memang semput already, some review said that it is not that much faster from a Intel HD 4600

It pays sometimes to read up on the actual review just to compare the speed.
In all, the R5 is basically your buying hook only, enabling them to advertise that they have a dedicated graphic card.

They don't have any review on R5-m330 yet. As for R5-m230, they clearly mentioned that "the performance is somewhat below a GeForce 820M and hardly beats Intels HD Graphics 4600"

Quite decent budget laptop, not gaming device. The keyboard sucks and the casing flexes from the center to left side when depress the keys.
