Iris Xe vs GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU is faster than the Iris Xe in gaming.

The GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop 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. In addition, the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop also has a significantly 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 RTX 4060 Laptop at 115 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop is faster than the Iris Xe.
