Iris Xe vs Radeon 660M benchmarks

For gaming, the Iris Xe graphics card is better than the Radeon 660M in our tests.

Our database shows that the Radeon 660M has a significantly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the Radeon 660M also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, both the Iris Xe and the Radeon 660M have an identical TDP. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Iris Xe is better than the Radeon 660M.
