Radeon RX 5500 vs Radeon Pro W5500 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Radeon RX 5500 GPU is faster than the Radeon Pro W5500 in gaming.

The Radeon Pro W5500 has a slightly 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 Radeon Pro W5500 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, the Radeon Pro W5500 has a slightly lower TDP at 125 W when compared to the Radeon RX 5500 at 150 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon RX 5500 is faster than the Radeon Pro W5500.
