HD 515 vs HD 530 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the HD 530 GPU is faster than the HD 515 in gaming.

In our comparison, the HD 530 has a slightly 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. In addition, the HD 530 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, both the HD 515 and the HD 530 have an identical TDP. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the HD 530 is better than the HD 515.
