AMD Radeon R9 M375 2GB, with DDR5 and specs
Some exciting news about the Lenovo IdeaPad Y700 14″ laptop, its GPU uses DDR5 memory. Woot!
NOTE: For best performance I highly recommend upgrading the standard HDD to a SSD. You can find complete steps here: Lenovo IdeaPad Y700-14 SSD Upgrade

PS thanks to commenter Fee for asking the great question whether it utilized GDDR3 or GDDR5 🙂
PSS as the specs show, I have the 2GB version of the card… I do not know for sure what type of GDDR the 4GB version uses.
What!!? Not many budget laptop offer gpu that have ddr5 memory. That is something. I hope 4gb version use ddr5 memory as well. Thanks for the exciting news J. D.!! ??

Have a great day and thanks again for commenting!

Hi, I’m very interested in the Y700 14″. The model I plan on getting is the 80NU000UUS is that the same that has this GPU and the DDR4 RAM?
Thank you.
Hi rm, thank you for your comment!
Yes, I ordered the exact model you are looking at,
the Ideapad Y700-14, model number 80NU000UUS.
I do recommend upgrading the SSD once you receive it. Of course there is also room for 8GB more RAM too! 😉
Best regards and please keep me posted on your laptop decisions!
