Analysis: AMD Ryzen 3 110 vs Intel Core 3 304
# Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded database contains benchmark results for only one of these two processors: the Intel Core 3 304. The AMD Ryzen 3 110 has no benchmark entries in the database, which limits direct numerical comparisons. However, the Intel Core 3 304's results can be examined against its nearest rivals to establish a performance baseline.
The Intel Core 3 304 achieves a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 5263 and a single-core score of 1765. In Cinebench R20, it records 4160 multicore and 587 single-core. The older Cinebench R15 test shows 849 multicore and 264 single-core. These results place the processor in the 68th percentile of all CPUs in the database.
PassMark results for the Intel Core 3 304 include a multithread score of 11625 and a single-thread score of 3614. The data compression test produces 114775, while data encryption reaches 8501. Extended instruction performance scores 9686, floating-point math scores 29722, and integer math scores 24640. The processor finds prime numbers with a score of 68, completes random string sorting at 13659, and posts 868 in the physics test.
The Intel Core 3 304's average benchmark score sits at 13745. Its nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3975WX, records an average score of 13786, which places the Intel part 0.3% behind that processor. The Intel Core i7-8750H scores 13868, putting the Core 3 304 0.9% behind. The AMD EPYC 7443 reaches 13936, a 1.4% gap. Conversely, the Intel Core 3 304 sits 1.1% ahead of the Intel Core 5 120UL, which scores 13594.
Because the AMD Ryzen 3 110 lacks benchmark entries, the head-to-head comparison cannot rely on measured scores. The database records zero wins for each processor in direct comparisons. This absence of data means the analysis must focus on architectural specifications and the available performance profile of the Intel Core 3 304.
# Architecture Differences
The two processors diverge substantially in their underlying designs. The AMD Ryzen 3 110 uses the Zen 3+ architecture under the codename Rembrandt-R, manufactured on a 6 nm process by TSMC. The Intel Core 3 304 uses the Wildcat Lake codename with a 3 nm process produced by Intel foundries. The fabrication node difference suggests the Intel part employs a more advanced manufacturing technology, though no transistor counts are recorded for either chip.
Core configurations differ notably. The AMD Ryzen 3 110 provides 4 cores with 8 threads, indicating simultaneous multithreading support. The Intel Core 3 304 provides 5 cores with 5 threads, meaning each core handles exactly one thread.

# The Verdict
The database contains asymmetric information for these two processors. The Intel Core 3 304 has a complete benchmark profile with an average score of 13745, placing it at the 68th percentile of all CPUs. The AMD Ryzen 3 110 has no benchmark scores and sits at the 50th percentile by default, which reflects a lack of recorded data rather than measured performance.
From a specification standpoint, the AMD Ryzen 3 110 offers advantages in multithreading, memory bandwidth, ECC support, and PCIe lane count. Its 8 threads against 5 threads gives it a theoretical edge in heavily threaded workloads. The dual-channel memory bus with 76.8 GB/s bandwidth compared to 59.7 GB/s on the Intel part suggests better memory throughput. ECC support and 20 PCIe lanes make it more suitable for reliability-focused or expansion-heavy configurations.
The Intel Core 3 304 offers advantages in physical core count, manufacturing process, and power efficiency. Its 5 cores provide more parallel physical execution units, even without multithreading. The 3 nm process node indicates a more advanced fabrication technology than the 6 nm node used by AMD. The 15 W TDP versus 28 W TDP points to lower power consumption, which matters in mobile designs.
The benchmark data for the Intel Core 3 304 shows it performing within 1.4% of the AMD EPYC 7443 and 0.9% of the Intel Core i7-8750H, while leading the Intel Core 5 120UL by 1.1%. These margins are small, indicating the Intel Core 3 304 sits in a competitive performance band relative to those established processors.
For the AMD Ryzen 3 110, the absence of benchmark data means the verdict cannot rest on measured performance. The specification comparison suggests it targets a different set of priorities: more threads, wider memory, ECC, and more PCIe connectivity. The Intel Core 3 304 targets efficiency with fewer threads, newer process technology, and lower power draw.
# Where Each One Wins
The AMD Ryzen 3 110 wins in scenarios that benefit from multithreading. Its 8 threads double the thread count of the Intel Core 3 304, which helps in workloads that scale with thread availability. The dual-channel memory bus at 76.8 GB/s provides a bandwidth advantage over the Intel part's 59.7 GB/s, which matters for memory-intensive operations.
ECC memory support on the AMD Ryzen 3 110 gives it an edge in environments where data integrity is critical, such as error-sensitive computing tasks. The 20 PCIe Gen 4 lanes versus 6 lanes on the Intel part allows for more attached devices or expansion options in a mobile platform.
The Intel Core 3 304 wins in efficiency-oriented scenarios. Its 15 W TDP compared to 28 W indicates lower power consumption, which extends battery life in mobile systems. The 5 physical cores provide additional parallel execution units for workloads that prefer more cores over more threads per core.
The Intel Core 3 304's measured benchmark results confirm its competitive standing. Its Cinebench R23 multicore score of 5263 and single-core score of 1765, along with a PassMark multithread score of 11625, provide a concrete performance profile. The 68th percentile ranking places it above the default 50th percentile assigned to the AMD Ryzen 3 110, though that ranking reflects missing data rather than measured inferiority.
The Intel Core 3 304 also supports LPDDR5X memory in addition to DDR5, which the AMD Ryzen 3 110 does not. This adds flexibility for system designers choosing memory types. The newer release date of April 2026 versus September 2025 suggests the Intel part comes from a later design cycle.
In direct specification terms, the AMD Ryzen 3 110 leads in thread count, memory bandwidth, ECC support, PCIe lane count, L3 cache capacity, and base clock speed. The Intel Core 3 304 leads in physical core count, process node efficiency, TDP, memory type flexibility, and benchmark percentile. Users prioritizing multithreading, memory throughput, and expansion capability would favor the AMD design. Users prioritizing power efficiency, physical core count, and verified benchmark performance would favor the Intel design.
