Radeon R5 vs Iris Xe benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Iris Xe GPU is faster than the Radeon R5 in gaming.

Our database shows that the Iris Xe 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 Iris Xe also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, both the Radeon R5 and the Iris Xe have an identical TDP. 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 Radeon R5.
