HD 515 vs Iris Xe comparison

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

Our database shows that both the HD 515 and Iris Xe both have the same core clock speed. Despite this, the Iris Xe 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 Iris Xe 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 Iris Xe is better than the HD 515.
