Iris 5100 vs Iris Plus 655 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Iris Plus 655 beats the Iris 5100 in gaming performance.

The Iris Plus 655 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 5100 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 Iris Plus 655 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the Iris 5100 at 30 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Iris Plus 655 is faster than the Iris 5100.
