GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q vs Iris Xe MAX comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q GPU is faster than the Iris Xe MAX in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q has a significantly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. Despite this, the Iris Xe MAX has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the Iris Xe MAX has a significantly lower TDP at 25 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q at 90 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q is faster than the Iris Xe MAX.
