CPU benchmarks

In the 3D Rendering benchmark with Cinebench 20, the Ryzen 5 5500U scored 9% higher. For the second benchmark, which uses Adobe Photoshop, the AMD CPU was faster again, this time by nearly 0.2 seconds.


GPU benchmarks

Moving over to the graphics side of the comparison, the Radeon RX Vega 7 (15W) won in two out of the three benchmarks. It was 25% faster in 3DMark Fire Strike and 97% better in Unigine Heaven 4.0. The Unigine Superposition benchmark, however, completely turned the tables, with the Iris Xe Graphics G7 with 80 Execution Units outperforming the AMD GPU by 5%.


Conclusion

Overall, the Ryzen 5 5500U was the better processor in both the CPU and GPU benchmarks. It had a 9% higher score in 3D Rendering and was nearly 0.2 seconds faster in Photoshop. The Radeon RX Vega 7 (15W) was the better iGPU in two out of the three benchmarks. It had 25% and 97% faster performance in 3DMark Fire Strike and Unigine Heaven 4.0, respectively. In Unigine Superposition, however, the Iris Xe Graphics G7 was 5% faster than the AMD iGPU. You should keep in mind, though, that the difference will change, depending on the configuration you choose, and on other factors, such as RAM setup and cooling.

I expected much more performance differences in the Cinebench benchmark (+2 cores should add more power than +%9 performance). I wish Intel use better manufacturing technology.
