AMD Ryzen 3 30 vs Intel Core 5 223PTE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The direct comparison data for the AMD Ryzen 3 30 and Intel Core 5 223PTE is limited, as the Intel processor has no recorded benchmark scores in the database. The AMD Ryzen 3 30, however, has an extensive set of PassMark measurements, allowing for a detailed analysis of its strengths and weaknesses on its own merits.

The AMD Ryzen 3 30 delivers its highest raw score in the data compression test, achieving 135,834. This is a substantial result, more than four times higher than its floating point math score of 14,448 and its random string sorting score of 14,431. The integer math test produces a score of 29,846, while the multithread benchmark records 9,027. The single-thread score is 2,465, which is also recorded under an alternate test name with an identical value.

The Ryzen 3 30 shows more moderate results in specialized workloads. The data encryption test yields 6,461, and the extended instructions test produces 6,075. The physics test records a much lower score of 436, and the find prime numbers test is the weakest area at just 20.

The average benchmark score for the AMD chip is 20,137, placing it at the 74th percentile of all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals in the overall rankings provide context for this figure. The Intel Core Ultra 7 165U scores an average of 20,249, which is 0.6% higher. The Intel Core i7-9700K scores 20,271, or 0.7% higher. On the other side, the AMD EPYC 7713P scores 20,024, which is 0.6% lower, and the Intel Core i7-11800H scores 19,998, which is 0.7% lower. These narrow deltas indicate that the Ryzen 3 30 sits in a tightly contested performance band, with the four closest competitors all within less than a single percentage point of its average score.

The Intel Core 5 223PTE has no benchmark entries, no wins, and no nearest rivals recorded in the database. Its average benchmark score is listed as zero, and its percentile ranking is 50. This means any head-to-head comparison must rely on the architectural and specification data, rather than direct performance measurements.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different manufacturers and use fundamentally different designs. The AMD Ryzen 3 30 uses the Zen 2 architecture with the Mendocino codename, built on a 6 nm process node at TSMC. The Intel Core 5 223PTE uses the Bartlett Lake codename, built on a 10 nm process node at Intel. The AMD chip has a die size of 100 mm², while the Intel die size is not recorded.

Core and thread counts differ sharply. The AMD Ryzen 3 30 has 4 cores and 8 threads, while the Intel Core 5 223PTE has 8 cores and 16 threads. This gives the Intel part twice the core count and twice the thread count. The clock speeds also differ. The AMD chip has a base clock of 2.40 GHz and a boost clock of 4.10 GHz. The Intel chip has a slightly lower base clock of 2.30 GHz but a significantly higher boost clock of 5.40 GHz.

Cache configurations are another major division. The AMD Ryzen 3 30 has 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 512 KB of L2 cache per core, and 4 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel Core 5 223PTE has 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 2 MB of L2 cache per core, and 24 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel part offers substantially more L2 and L3 cache per core and in total.

The memory support also diverges. The AMD chip supports LPDDR5 memory in a dual-channel configuration with a bandwidth of 88.0 GB/s. The Intel chip supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, also dual-channel, with a slightly higher bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel part supports ECC memory, while the AMD part does not.

The PCIe capabilities are markedly different. The AMD Ryzen 3 30 uses PCIe Gen 3 with 4 lanes from the CPU. The Intel Core 5 223PTE uses PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU. This represents a significant difference in both generation and lane count.

Integrated graphics also differ. The AMD chip uses the Radeon 610M, while the Intel chip uses UHD Graphics 770. The market segments differ as well: the AMD part is classified as Mobile, the Intel part as Desktop. The sockets are distinct, with the AMD chip on AMD Socket FT6 and the Intel chip on Intel Socket 1700.

The power envelope is a clear separator. The AMD Ryzen 3 30 has a TDP of 15 watts, while the Intel Core 5 223PTE has a TDP of 45 watts. The production status for both is listed as Active. The AMD chip was released on September 30, 2025, and the Intel chip was released on March 8, 2026. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier.

The Verdict

The recorded data presents a clear split. The AMD Ryzen 3 30 has a full set of benchmark results and a percentile ranking of 74, placing it above the median. The Intel Core 5 223PTE has no benchmark scores, a percentile ranking of 50, and no rivals for comparison. The database cannot confirm any performance advantage for the Intel part because it has no measurements.

The AMD Ryzen 3 30 is the only processor in this comparison with verified performance data. Its average score of 20,137 and its position among rivals with deltas under 1% indicate it is a solid mid-range performer. The Intel Core 5 223PTE offers a higher core count, a higher boost clock, more cache, and a larger PCIe lane allocation, but none of these specifications are backed by measured results in the database.

For users who require verified data, the AMD Ryzen 3 30 is the only choice with evidence. For users weighing specifications alone, the Intel Core 5 223PTE offers a larger core count and more cache, but its actual performance remains unmeasured.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen 3 30 wins in the data compression workload, scoring 135,834. It also performs well in integer math at 29,846 and floating point math at 14,448. Its multithread score of 9,027 and single-thread score of 2,465 provide a baseline for general productivity tasks. The mobile segment classification and 15 W TDP suggest it is designed for power-constrained systems, and its 74th percentile ranking confirms it outperforms a majority of CPUs in the database.

The Intel Core 5 223PTE has no benchmark wins recorded. Its advantages are entirely specification-based. It offers double the cores and threads, a higher boost clock of 5.40 GHz, a larger 24 MB L3 cache, PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes, ECC memory support, and a higher memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The desktop segment classification and 45 W TDP indicate a higher power envelope, and the launch MSRP of $232 positions it in the mainstream desktop market. Without measured scores, the database cannot assign any workload-specific win to this processor.
