Iris 6100 vs Radeon R7 240 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Iris 6100 GPU is faster than the Radeon R7 240 in gaming.

In our comparison, the Radeon R7 240 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 6100 has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the Iris 6100 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the Radeon R7 240 at 30 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Iris 6100 is better than the Radeon R7 240.
