AMD Ryzen 3 110 vs Intel Core 5 223PQE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data for these two processors contains no head-to-head benchmark results. Both entries show empty benchmark arrays, zero win counts for either side, and identical percentile rankings at 50 against all CPUs in the database. The average benchmark score for both is zero. This means the database currently holds no measured performance comparisons between the AMD Ryzen 3 110 and the Intel Core 5 223PQE.

What the data does provide is a complete specification profile for each processor, which allows for a structural comparison. The Intel Core 5 223PQE doubles the core count of the AMD Ryzen 3 110: 8 cores and 16 threads versus 4 cores and 8 threads. The Intel part also runs at a significantly higher clock envelope, with a 4.00 GHz base clock and a 5.50 GHz boost clock, compared to the AMD's 3.00 GHz base and 4.30 GHz boost. That is a 1.00 GHz base clock advantage and a 1.20 GHz boost clock advantage for Intel.

Cache allocation further separates the two. The Intel Core 5 223PQE carries 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 24 MB of shared L3 cache. The AMD Ryzen 3 110 has 64 KB of L1 per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and 8 MB of shared L3 cache. In total L3 terms, Intel has three times the shared cache. Per-core L2, Intel has four times the allocation. These are substantial structural differences that would likely translate into measurable performance gaps in multi-threaded workloads, but the absence of actual benchmark scores means any quantitative conclusion remains speculative.

The memory subsystem also differs. Intel supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory with a recorded maximum bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. AMD supports only DDR5 with a recorded maximum bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s. Intel's bandwidth figure is approximately 16.7% higher than AMD's, based on the recorded numbers. Both use dual-channel memory buses. Both support ECC memory.

PCIe connectivity shows a generational split. Intel uses PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU. AMD uses PCIe Gen 4 with 20 lanes from the CPU. Intel's Gen 5 interface offers higher per-lane bandwidth, while AMD offers more total lanes. The database records these as raw configuration facts, not as tested throughput numbers.

Integrated graphics differ as well. AMD pairs the Ryzen 3 110 with a Radeon 660M. Intel pairs the Core 5 223PQE with UHD Graphics 770. Neither has any graphics benchmark data in the database, so relative iGPU performance cannot be quantified.

The manufacturing process separates the two clearly. AMD uses a 6 nm node from TSMC. Intel uses a 10 nm node from Intel's own foundry. The AMD die size is recorded at 210 mm², while Intel's die size is not recorded. Smaller process geometry typically correlates with lower power draw per transistor, and the TDP figures in the database reflect that: AMD is rated at 28 watts, Intel at 125 watts. That is a 97-watt difference, making the AMD part more than four times lower in thermal design power.

The Verdict

Based strictly on the recorded data, there are no benchmark results to declare a performance winner. The database shows zero wins for each processor in head-to-head testing. The percentile rankings are identical at 50. The average benchmark scores are identical at zero. Any claim of outright performance superiority would require fabricated numbers, which the data does not support.

What the data does support is a clear segmentation by intended use case and platform constraints. The AMD Ryzen 3 110 is a mobile processor on AMD Socket FP7, with a 28-watt TDP, a 6 nm process, and Radeon 660M integrated graphics. The Intel Core 5 223PQE is a desktop processor on Intel Socket 1700, with a 125-watt TDP, a 10 nm process, and UHD Graphics 770.

For systems where power draw and thermal output are primary constraints, the AMD part has a decisive structural advantage. The 28-watt TDP is less than one-quarter of Intel's 125-watt rating. For systems where raw core count and cache depth matter more than power efficiency, the Intel part presents a stronger configuration on paper: 8 cores versus 4, 16 threads versus 8, and 24 MB of L3 versus 8 MB.

The clock speeds also favor Intel in single-threaded scenarios if the architecture scales linearly, which has not been measured here. Intel's 5.50 GHz boost is 27.9% higher than AMD's 4.30 GHz boost, based on the recorded values. Intel's 4.00 GHz base is 33.3% higher than AMD's 3.00 GHz base.

The launch MSRP of the Intel Core 5 223PQE is $319. The AMD Ryzen 3 110 has no recorded launch MSRP, so no price comparison is possible. The Intel part is listed as active in production, as is the AMD part. The Intel release date is 2026-03-08, while the AMD release date is 2025-09-30. The AMD part launched earlier by roughly five months.

Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier. Both are locked parts. The AMD part number is 100-000000549(FP7r2). The Intel part number is SA4QC.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen 3 110 wins on power efficiency. The 28-watt TDP is the standout figure. For thin-and-light mobile systems, fanless designs, or any chassis with limited cooling headroom, this processor presents a far more manageable thermal profile than the Intel part's 125 watts. The 6 nm process node from TSMC also points to denser, more efficient transistors, although the database does not include efficiency measurements.

The AMD part also wins on PCIe lane count. Twenty Gen 4 lanes from the CPU versus Intel's sixteen Gen 5 lanes. For systems that need many simultaneous PCIe devices, the AMD configuration offers more lane availability, even if each lane runs at an older generation speed.

The AMD part wins on integrated graphics brand identity, if not measured performance. The Radeon 660M is a recognizable AMD GPU line. But the database contains no graphics benchmarks, so this is a nominal advantage only.

The Intel Core 5 223PQE wins on core count and thread count. Eight cores and sixteen threads is double the AMD's four cores and eight threads. For rendering, compilation, virtualization, or any workload that scales with thread count, the Intel part has a structural upper hand.

Intel wins on cache capacity. The 24 MB shared L3 is triple the AMD's 8 MB. The per-core L2 of 2 MB is four times AMD's 512 KB. Larger caches reduce memory latency pressure in repetitive workloads, though the database does not quantify this effect.

Intel wins on clock speed. A 5.50 GHz boost and 4.00 GHz base are both higher than AMD's 4.30 GHz boost and 3.00 GHz base. For lightly threaded tasks that depend on single-core frequency, the Intel part has a clear specification advantage.

Intel wins on memory bandwidth. The recorded 89.6 GB/s exceeds AMD's 76.8 GB/s by 12.8 GB/s, or approximately 16.7%. Intel also offers DDR4 compatibility in addition to DDR5, giving platform builders more memory choice.

Intel wins on PCIe generation. Gen 5 support means double the per-lane bandwidth of Gen 4, even with fewer lanes. For a single high-bandwidth device, such as a modern graphics card or NVMe drive, Gen 5 is the newer standard.
