Iris Plus 655 vs HD 4600 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Iris Plus 655 GPU is faster than the HD 4600 in gaming.

Our database shows that the HD 4600 has a slightly 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. In addition, the HD 4600 also 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 655 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the HD 4600 at 45 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Iris Plus 655 over the HD 4600.
