Analysis: AMD Ryzen 3 5305G vs Intel Core 5 213PE
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The benchmark data available in the database provides a complete picture for the Intel Core 5 213PE, but the AMD Ryzen 3 5305G currently has no recorded benchmark scores. This means a direct comparison of measured performance cannot be constructed from the measurements on file. The Intel part, however, has a full set of results across Cinebench and Passmark workloads, allowing for a detailed assessment of its own capabilities.
The Intel Core 5 213PE delivers a multi-core score of 22,468 in Cinebench R23, while its single-core score in the same test reaches 3,172. In Cinebench R20, the multi-core result is 9,436 and the single-core result is 1,332. The older Cinebench R15 workload shows a multi-core score of 2,264 and a single-core score of 319.
Passmark results for the Intel part show a multi-thread score of 26,434 and a single-thread score of 4,060. In specific workloads, the data records 92,089 in integer math, 68,587 in floating point math, 29,8804 in data compression, and 15,916 in data encryption. The processor also scores 19,565 in extended instructions, 32,027 in random string sorting, and 114 in find prime numbers.
The database places the Intel Core 5 213PE at the 85th percentile among all CPUs tracked, with an average benchmark score of 35,428. Its nearest rivals in the database are tightly clustered. The Intel Core i7-13700T sits 0.1% behind with an average score of 35,403, the Intel Core i7-12700KF is 0.2% behind at 35,365, the Intel Core i5-13600T is 0.3% behind at 35,305, and the Intel Core i7-12700K is 0.4% behind at 35,287. These delta values indicate that the Core 5 213PE holds a narrow but consistent lead over a group of established desktop processors.
Architecture Differences
The two processors come from different manufacturing and design lineages. The AMD Ryzen 3 5305G uses the Zen 3 architecture under the Cezanne codename, built on a 7 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core 5 213PE uses the Bartlett Lake codename, with a 10 nm process fabricated by Intel. The AMD part belongs to the 5000 series, while the Intel part is listed simply as Core 5.
Transistor counts and die sizes are only recorded for the AMD side. The Ryzen 3 5305G integrates 10,700 million transistors on a 180 mm² die. The Intel part has no transistor count or die size listed in the database.
Cache layouts differ substantially. The AMD processor uses 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and 8 MB of L3 cache. The Intel processor uses 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 24 MB of shared L3 cache. The larger L3 allocation on the Intel side, combined with double the L2 per core, gives it a notable cache capacity advantage.
Core counts also separate the two. The AMD Ryzen 3 5305G has 4 cores and 8 threads, while the Intel Core 5 213PE has 8 cores and 16 threads. Clock speeds differ as well. The AMD part runs at a 4.00 GHz base and 4.20 GHz boost. The Intel part runs at a 2.70 GHz base and 5.20 GHz boost. The Intel chip reaches a much higher peak frequency, despite starting from a lower base.
Both parts carry a 65 W TDP, placing them in the same thermal envelope. The AMD part uses AMD Socket AM4, while the Intel part uses Intel Socket 1700. Memory support differs: the AMD part supports DDR4 only, while the Intel part supports both DDR4 and DDR5. Memory bandwidth is recorded as 51.2 GB/s for AMD and 76.8 GB/s for Intel. The Intel part also supports ECC memory, while the AMD part does not. PCIe connectivity differs, with the AMD part using Gen 3 with 16 CPU lanes and the Intel part using Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes.
Integrated graphics also differ. The AMD Ryzen 3 5305G uses Radeon Vega 6, while the Intel Core 5 213PE uses UHD Graphics 730. The Intel part has a locked multiplier, while the AMD part has an unlocked multiplier.
Where Each One Wins
The AMD Ryzen 3 5305G has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, so its wins cannot be quantified from the data. The Intel Core 5 213PE, by contrast, has a full benchmark profile. The recorded results show strength in multi-threaded workloads, consistent with its 8-core, 16-thread configuration. The Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 22,468 and the Passmark multi-thread score of 26,434 both indicate solid throughput for heavily parallel tasks.
Single-thread performance on the Intel part is also strong, with a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 3,172 and a Passmark single-thread score of 4,060. The 5.20 GHz boost clock appears to support these results. The data compression score of 298,804 and the integer math score of 92,089 suggest that productivity-oriented workloads benefit from the Intel part's core count and cache size.
The AMD part's only recorded advantage in the database is architectural. Its 7 nm process node is smaller than Intel's 10 nm node, and its base clock is higher at 4.00 GHz compared to 2.70 GHz. The unlocked multiplier on the AMD side offers adjustment potential that the Intel part does not have. The AMD part also has a lower L3 cache at 8 MB versus 24 MB, but its smaller die size of 180 mm² and transistor count of 10,700 million are documented figures. Without benchmark scores for the AMD part, the database cannot assign it any measured wins.
