Iris Xe vs GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop beats the Iris Xe in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 4080 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 4080 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 4080 Laptop at 110 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 4080 Laptop is faster than the Iris Xe.
