Iris 540 vs Quadro K2100M comparison

In our benchmarks, the Quadro K2100M beats the Iris 540 in gaming performance.

The Quadro K2100M 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 Iris 540 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the Quadro K2100M at 55 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Quadro K2100M is better than the Iris 540.
