HD 5500 vs Radeon Vega 3 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Radeon Vega 3 GPU is faster than the HD 5500 in gaming.

Our database shows that both the HD 5500 and Radeon Vega 3 both have the same core clock speed. Despite this, the Radeon Vega 3 has a slightly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, both the HD 5500 and the Radeon Vega 3 have an identical TDP. 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 Radeon Vega 3 is faster than the HD 5500.
