There are few videocards with a similar name, you need to be more specific on what exact one is it that you got:

Nvidia 7600 series (from a few years ago)
AMD 7600 series that can include anything mobile.

Oh, I forgot to add. It's AMD 7600G.

Then it is a rebadged 6670 for the mobile world, unless it is integrated on the CPU like in Trinity.

Check if it has discrete RAM, if it does, and it is GDDR5, then it is faster than the DDR3 version, which are all faster than the APU (integrated on CPU) version.

I'd Check again I think that it might be a 76xxG the G indicates that that is integrated into and APU and is a mobile version. Amd's APUs are good processor and video card combinations for people who are on a budget. the easiest way to tell exactly what video card your looking at is to look up the CPU. For example the Amd A10-4600 has a 7660G while the A8-4500 has a 7640G which is much less powerful than the 7660G. All of the 76xxG cards will share system ram, and dont have any video ram which means they are not "discrete" cards, but they do perform comparably and a much lower price point. There is also the option to Corssfire the 76xxG with another AMD discrete video card, for example the 7670M I added to my laptop should increase it's performance drastically and only cost me $50.

The other big advantage of the CPU/GPU combo is battery life, these guys really dont use much power.
 
In dual-graphics with a HD7670M, either the 7660G or 7640G will *max* the video (something like an HD7775G2 designation in dual-graphics).

The APU graphics engine on the Trinity chip is a cut-down 'Turks' 40nm gpu.

I don't understand, I have a A8-4555m and the graphic card is the 7600G and it says it has 512 MB DDR3 dedicated. The catalyst software says so, Windows says so also. But everywhere on the web it says it's a sharded memory gpu. It's weird ...
 


It's the 7600G APU graphics. And, you could likely raise this to 1GB (or, more) from within your BIOS, or with an AMD utility. If you look around, you might also find some over-clocking tools, though, with mobile you must be careful.

If your graphics were designated Radeon 7600m Mobility that would be discreet.

THOUGH to further confuse you ... AMD also offers a Radeon 7600G2 which is the dual-graphics combination of the G plus the m.

You will be tested later :ouch:

 
The integrated Radeon HD 7600G is a relatively weak graphics core. Based on the benchmarks in the following link, the HD 7600G is slower than the Intel HD 3000 which is found in the 2nd generation Core i3/i5/i7 CPUs known as Sandy Bridge. Intel's 3rd generation Ivy Bridge CPUs have the Intel HD 4000 graphics core which is about 35% on average more powerful than the Intel HD 4000. The Intel HD 3000 does not beat the Radeon HD 7600G in every single game, but in most games. But the current Intel HD 4000 seems to beat the Radeon HD 7600G in every single game. The only benchmark where it performs worse than the HD 7600G is the last one; World In Conflict Benchmark.

Overall, the Radeon HD 7600G is a pretty weak graphics core.
