Intel Iris Pro 5200 vs. HD Graphics 4600

For the processor-focused test profiles, the Gazelle Pro comes out ahead as is expected due to the higher clock frequencies with the i7-4900MQ processor.

These results are pretty much as expected with the Galago UltraPro delivering faster OpenGL graphics over the Gazelle Pro thanks to the Iris Pro 5200. What was most interesting from this two-comparison was seeing just how much faster the Iris Pro 5200 graphics are over the HD Graphics 4600 when both systems were running Linux 3.11 and Mesa 9.2.

Remember, you can see how your system's performance compares to these performance numbers by installing the Phoronix Test Suite and simply executing phoronix-test-suite benchmark 1309163-SO-GALAGOULT68.
