Not measurable with Geekbench
“With double the graphics performance of the A5 chip, the A5X provides a superb balance between performance and power efficiency so users can enjoy all the benefits of the stunning new display while experiencing a smooth Multi-Touch™ interface, immersive gameplay, incredible visual depth and all-day battery life that iPad is known for delivering.”
No Metal before A7: the baseline has no Geekbench 6 GPU score and none can be converted.
