The Iris Plus 640 is an Intel GPU that was released in 2017 January. This GPU is bad at gaming with a score of 287 points in our PC benchmark.
The Iris Plus 640 has 0 GiB of memory. When choosing a GPU, plan ahead and select a model with enough memory for your needs. High resolutions such as 4K require significantly more memory than 1080p as there is more data to display on the screen.
In terms of clock speed, the Iris Plus 640 GPU core runs at a frequency of 300 MHz and if power and temperature permits, it can boost up to 1100 MHz. The core clock is directly related to the performance of a GPU, the higher the clock, the more processing can be done per second. A higher clock does not guarantee better performance by itself, this also depends on the number of shading units and other elements of the pipeline.
As for rendering API support, the Iris Plus 640 supports up to DirectX 12. In addition, in cross-platform titles, OpenGL 4.4 features are supported. If your GPU is too old and doesn't support a newer API certain titles may not be playable.
This chip has a Thermal Design Power of 15W: the total amount of waste heat generated. A card that runs hotter will need better cooling and will draw more power from the wall.
