Iris Plus 640 vs GeForce 930M specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce 930M graphics card is better than the Iris Plus 640 in our tests.

The GeForce 930M 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 Plus 640 has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the Iris Plus 640 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the GeForce 930M at 33 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce 930M over the Iris Plus 640.
