HD 5500 vs UHD 600 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the HD 5500 GPU is faster than the UHD 600 in gaming.

Our database shows that the HD 5500 has a significantly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the HD 5500 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the UHD 600 has a significantly lower TDP at 5 W when compared to the HD 5500 at 15 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the HD 5500 over the UHD 600.
