Iris Xe vs GeForce 930M specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Iris Xe beats the GeForce 930M in gaming performance.

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

In addition, the Iris Xe 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.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Iris Xe is faster than the GeForce 930M.
