AMD Ryzen 3 8300G vs AMD Ryzen Embedded 9900X3D Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database does not contain any direct head-to-head benchmark results between the AMD Ryzen 3 8300G and the AMD Ryzen Embedded 9900X3D. The head-to-head benchmark array is empty, and both win counters are zero. This means there are no matched test scores available that run the same workload on both processors under identical conditions.

What the database does contain is a full benchmark suite for the Ryzen 3 8300G and no benchmark scores at all for the Ryzen Embedded 9900X3D. The Embedded part has an empty benchmarks array, an average benchmark score of zero, and a percentile ranking of 50th among all CPUs. That percentile value is present in the database, but it does not correspond to any measured score, so it cannot be interpreted as a performance result.

For the Ryzen 3 8300G, the database lists 17 individual benchmark scores. In Cinebench R23, the multicore score is 12217 and the singlecore score is 1724. In Cinebench R20, the multicore score is 5131 and the singlecore score is 724. In Cinebench R15, the multicore score is 1231 and the singlecore score is 173. PassMark results include multithread at 14018, singlethread at 3778, integer math at 40534, floating point math at 25336, data compression at 158952, data encryption at 9115, extended instructions at 12354, find prime numbers at 47, physics at 755, and random string sorting at 19013.

Since the Ryzen Embedded 9900X3D has no recorded scores, no head-to-head deltas can be calculated. The database shows the Ryzen 3 8300G sits at the 72nd percentile among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 18169. Its nearest rivals, all within roughly one-tenth of a percent in average score, are the AMD Ryzen 7 5700U at 18176, the Intel Core i7-1365U at 18177, the Intel Core i7-9700 at 18180, and the Intel Core i5-1334U at 18154. These figures position the 8300G in a tight cluster where a single benchmark run can shift relative placement.

The absence of data for the Embedded part means any comparative statement about measured performance would be unsupported. The only legitimate conclusion from the head-to-head section is that the database has no matched results, so performance parity or advantage cannot be established from direct comparisons.

The Verdict

The data supports only one clear selection criterion: which processor has measurable benchmark results. The AMD Ryzen 3 8300G has a complete set of 17 benchmark scores, an average score of 18169, and a 72nd percentile ranking. The AMD Ryzen Embedded 9900X3D has no benchmark scores, an average score of zero, and a 50th percentile ranking that does not correspond to any tested workload.

For users who require verified performance data from the database, the Ryzen 3 8300G is the only one of the two with recorded results. It shows strong single-threaded behavior in Cinebench R23 with a score of 1724, which is notably higher than its multicore-to-singlecore ratio would suggest for a 4-core, 8-thread part. The multicore Cinebench R23 score of 12217 is consistent with a modern 4-core Zen 4 desktop processor.

The Ryzen Embedded 9900X3D, by contrast, offers no measured data in the database. Its specification sheet indicates a 12-core, 24-thread design with a 4.40 GHz base clock and 5.50 GHz boost clock, but no benchmark confirms how those specifications translate into workload performance. The 50th percentile figure appears without supporting scores, so it should not be taken as evidence of mid-pack performance.

The choice between these two parts, strictly from the database, comes down to data availability. The Ryzen 3 8300G has a documented performance profile. The Ryzen Embedded 9900X3D has specifications but no verified results. Any user needing benchmark confirmation should select the 8300G. Any user who requires the 12-core, 24-thread configuration of the Embedded part must accept that the database cannot validate its performance.

The Ryzen 3 8300G uses a monolithic 137 mm² die, while the Embedded 9900X3D uses two dies of 70.6 mm² each. The transistor counts differ, with the 8300G listing 20,900 million and the Embedded part listing 16,630 million. Memory bandwidth is also different: the 8300G lists 83.2 GB/s, while the Embedded 9900X3D lists 89.6 GB/s. Both use DDR5 memory and a dual-channel memory bus. Both use the AMD Socket AM5 and are produced on a 4 nm process by TSMC.

Architecture Differences

The architectural split between these two parts is substantial. The Ryzen 3 8300G belongs to the 8000 series and uses the Zen 4 architecture with the Phoenix2 codename. The Ryzen Embedded 9900X3D belongs to the 9000 series and uses the Zen 5 architecture with the Granite Ridge codename. The database lists the architecture field as null for the Embedded part, but the generation field specifies Zen 5 (Granite Ridge).

The cache hierarchy differs in both size and organization. The 8300G has 64 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 8 MB of shared L3. The Embedded 9900X3D has 80 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 128 MB of L3. The 128 MB L3 figure on the Embedded part is 16 times larger than the 8 MB L3 on the 8300G, which indicates a substantially different approach to cache capacity. Neither part lists a 3D V-Cache figure in the database.

The I/O capabilities also differ. The 8300G provides PCIe Gen 4 with 14 lanes from the CPU. The Embedded 9900X3D provides PCIe Gen 5 with 24 lanes from the CPU. This gives the Embedded part both a newer PCIe generation and nearly twice the lane count, which matters for expansion and peripheral bandwidth.

The integrated graphics differ as well. The 8300G uses the Radeon 740M, a specifically named iGPU. The Embedded 9900X3D lists only "Radeon Graphics" without a specific model name. Both parts support ECC memory, which is common for AMD desktop and embedded processors.

The production status for both is listed as Active, and both target the Desktop market segment. The 8300G has a locked multiplier, while the Embedded 9900X3D has an unlocked multiplier, meaning the latter allows frequency adjustment through the multiplier. The release dates are separated by roughly 21 months, with the 8300G releasing on 2024-01-07 and the Embedded part on 2025-10-06. The 8300G has a launch MSRP of $176; the Embedded part has no launch MSRP recorded in the database.

The architectural differences point to two distinct design goals. The 8300G is a compact 4-core Zen 4 part with modest cache and PCIe Gen 4, built for mainstream desktop workloads with a specific iGPU. The Embedded 9900X3D is a 12-core Zen 5 part with 128 MB of L3, PCIe Gen 5, and a higher TDP, aimed at embedded or workstation-class scenarios where core count and cache capacity take priority over power efficiency. The process node is identical at 4 nm TSMC, so the differences come from core configuration, cache, and I/O rather than manufacturing technology.
