Iris Plus 640 vs Radeon R9 350 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Iris Plus 640 beats the Radeon R9 350 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the Radeon R9 350 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.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the Radeon R9 350 has significantly more memory with 2 GiB of memory compared to 0.5 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the Iris Plus 640 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the Radeon R9 350 at 60 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 conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Iris Plus 640 over the Radeon R9 350.
