Iris 5100 vs Radeon Vega 3 specs and performance

For gaming, the Iris 5100 graphics card is better than the Radeon Vega 3 in our tests.

In our comparison, the Radeon Vega 3 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.

In addition, the Radeon Vega 3 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the Iris 5100 at 30 W. 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 Iris 5100 is faster than the Radeon Vega 3.
