AMD Ryzen 3 5305GE vs Intel Arc G3 EXTREME Comparison

The database contains no direct benchmark pairing for the AMD Ryzen 3 5305GE and the Intel Arc G3 EXTREME. The Ryzen 3 5305GE has no recorded Cinebench or PassMark scores, while the Intel Arc G3 EXTREME carries a set of Cinebench R15, R20, R23 and PassMark results. The analysis below therefore treats measured performance for the Intel part separately from architectural comparison for both processors.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows no direct wins for either processor in this pairing. The Intel Arc G3 EXTREME is the only part with benchmark output. Its average benchmark score is 36699, placing it at the 85th percentile of all CPUs in the database. The AMD Ryzen 3 5305GE is listed at the 50th percentile, but no benchmark scores accompany that placement.

In Cinebench R15, the Arc G3 EXTREME scores 2192 in multi-core and 267 in single-core. In Cinebench R20, it scores 10945 in multi-core and 1545 in single-core. In Cinebench R23, it scores 14655 in multi-core and 1862 in single-core. These results show a consistent multi-core advantage over its own single-core scores, but no rival Cinebench scores are available for this part in the database.

The PassMark results cover a wider range of workloads. The Arc G3 EXTREME records 307094 in data compression, 23881 in data encryption, 24017 in extended instructions, 248 in find prime numbers, 86929 in floating point math, 71164 in integer math, 30659 in multithread, 2515 in physics, 37331 in random string sorting, and 4293 in single thread. The data compression score is the highest single PassMark result for this processor, while find prime numbers is the lowest. The floating point math score of 86929 and integer math score of 71164 are both higher than the multithread score of 30659, indicating that the math subtests are the strongest recorded PassMark categories for this chip.

Relative to its nearest rivals, the Arc G3 EXTREME sits in a narrow band. Intel Core Ultra 5 225 has an average score of 36938, AMD Ryzen 5 5600F has 36945, AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D has 37018, and AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 450 has 37093. The Arc G3 EXTREME trails these four parts by 0.6%, 0.7%, 0.9%, and 1.1%, respectively. The gaps are small enough that the Arc G3 EXTREME belongs to the same performance tier as those processors. The Ryzen 3 5305GE has no nearest rival entries, so it cannot be placed in any such tier.

The biggest win for the Intel part in this comparison is therefore not a direct victory over the AMD part. It is the existence of a complete measured profile: Cinebench R23 multi-core at 14655, Cinebench R23 single-core at 1862, and a PassMark single-thread score of 4293. The AMD part has no measured profile to set against those numbers.

The Verdict

Strictly from the recorded data, the Intel Arc G3 EXTREME is the only processor in this pair with a measurable benchmark profile. Its average benchmark score of 36699 and 85th percentile rank provide a concrete reference point. The AMD Ryzen 3 5305GE has no recorded Cinebench or PassMark results, so no performance verdict can be derived from the database for it.

The choice between these two parts is therefore determined by platform and measurement availability, not by a head-to-head result. The Arc G3 EXTREME is the only option when verified benchmark scores are required. The Ryzen 3 5305GE is the only option when the target platform is an AMD Socket AM4 desktop with DDR4 memory, because the Arc G3 EXTREME uses Intel BGA 2540 and LPDDR5X.

The data does not support a claim that the Arc G3 EXTREME outperforms the Ryzen 3 5305GE, because the Ryzen 3 5305GE has no scores. It only supports the conclusion that the Arc G3 EXTREME has measured performance and the Ryzen 3 5305GE does not. Any selection of the AMD part must be based on socket, memory type, and desktop compatibility, not on benchmark evidence.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen 3 5305GE is a 5000 series desktop processor using Zen 3 (Cezanne). The Intel Arc G3 EXTREME is an Arc G3 (Panther Lake) mobile processor.

Where Each One Wins

Based on recorded benchmark wins, the Intel Arc G3 EXTREME wins every category in which a score exists, because the AMD Ryzen 3 5305GE has no scores. The Arc G3 EXTREME delivers measured results across Cinebench R15, R20, R23 and PassMark workloads. Its highest recorded PassMark score is data compression at 307094, and its Cinebench R23 multi-core score is 14655.

The Ryzen 3 5305GE has no benchmark wins in the database. Its case rests entirely on platform specifications: it is the only part in this pair with an AMD Socket AM4, DDR4 support, PCIe Gen 3 with 16 CPU lanes, and an unlocked multiplier. It is also the only desktop-class part, while the Arc G3 EXTREME is mobile-class.

For workloads that require a measured multi-thread profile, the Arc G3 EXTREME is the only part with relevant data, such as its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 14655 and PassMark multithread score of 30659. For workloads tied to a desktop AM4 platform, the Ryzen 3 5305GE is the only compatible processor in this comparison, though its performance remains unmeasured.

In specification terms, the Arc G3 EXTREME leads in core count, cache capacity, memory bandwidth, boost clock, process node, and integrated graphics model. The Ryzen 3 5305GE leads in base clock, PCIe lane count, and multiplier flexibility. These are architectural advantages, not benchmark wins. The recorded data gives the Intel part the only measurable performance profile, while the AMD part remains a specification-only entry in this pairing.
