UHD 730 vs Iris Xe MAX specs and performance

For gaming, the Iris Xe MAX graphics card is better than the UHD 730 in our tests.

Our database shows that both the UHD 730 and Iris Xe MAX both have the same core clock speed. Despite this, the Iris Xe MAX 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 UHD 730 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the Iris Xe MAX at 25 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Iris Xe MAX is better than the UHD 730.
