The Radeon HD 6510 was a graphics card by AMD, launched on May 14th, 2011. Built on the 40 nm process, and based on the Turks graphics processor, in its Turks LE variant, the card supports DirectX 11.2. The Turks graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 118 mm² and 716 million transistors. Unlike the fully unlocked Radeon HD 6570 OEM, which uses the same GPU but has all 480 shaders enabled, AMD has disabled some shading units on the Radeon HD 6510 to reach the product's target shader count. It features 320 shading units, 16 texture mapping units, and 8 ROPs. AMD has paired 1,024 MB GDDR3 memory with the Radeon HD 6510, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 650 MHz, memory is running at 667 MHz.
Being a single-slot card, its power draw is rated at 39 W maximum. Display outputs include: 1x DVI, 1x HDMI 1.3a, 1x VGA. Radeon HD 6510 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface. The card measures 165 mm in length, and features a single-slot cooling solution.
