Intel Iris Graphics 550 Review:
Intel Iris Graphics 550 was released by Intel on 1st September of 2015 it is based on Skylake GT3e and generation 9 architecture which is built on 14nm+ Technology and comes with PCIe 3.0. It has a boost clock of up to 1050MHz and a base clock of 350MHz. Intel Iris Graphics 550 can be mostly found in workstation laptops of Intel Core i7 And i5 with Skylake generation and many other PC processors. It comes with the revised video engine which decodes H.265/HEVC. It has so many outputs like DP 1.2 / eDP 1.3 (max. 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz), but if you want HDMI you will need an external connector.
Intel Iris Graphics 550 has 384 shading units(double than other Intel HD Graphics GPU) and execution units are 48 (double than other Intel HD Graphics GPU) inside it. It has 48 TMUs(Texture Mapping Units)(double than other Intel HD Graphics GPU) and 6 ROPs(Render Output Units)(double than other Intel HD Graphics GPU). It comes with the support of 4K and the maximum resolution of this GPU is 4096×2304 pixels. Intel Iris Graphics 550 supports multiple outputs like DVI, VGA, and HDMI if you put an external connector for it. This Intel Iris Graphics 550 comes in many notebook and desktop processors with a TDP of 15W.
