7-Way Low-End Open-Source Linux GPU Comparison
As the Xonotic graphics intensity increased, the Haswell HD Graphics were able to pull further ahead of the Radeon HD 4550 / 6450 and NVIDIA GeForce GT 220 graphics compared to at low quality settings where these GPUs were neck-and-neck.
For the GpuTest benchmarks, the Intel HD Graphics 4400 on the Core i3 4130 "Haswell" CPU were running significantly ahead of the Radeon HD 4550, Radeon HD 5450, Radeon HD 6450, and GeForce GT 220 discrete graphics cards. The Radeon HD 4670 and Radeon HD 6570 graphics cards continued to run multiple times faster.
If you wish to see how your own Linux system(s) graphics performance compares to these seven low-end GPUs on the latest open-source drivers (Linux 3.12 + Mesa Git), it's a matter of just installing the Phoronix Test Suite and then running phoronix-test-suite benchmark 1310124-SO-OPENSOURC92.
