Iris 6100 vs Radeon R5 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Iris 6100 GPU is faster than the Radeon R5 in gaming.

In our comparison, the Iris 6100 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 Iris 6100 also 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 Iris 6100 and the Radeon R5 have an identical TDP. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Iris 6100 is better than the Radeon R5.
