AMD Ryzen 3 8300G vs Intel Core i5-14501TE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data for the AMD Ryzen 3 8300G provides a full set of benchmark results, while the Intel Core i5-14501TE has no recorded scores in the database. This makes a direct side-by-side comparison impossible for individual tests. The Ryzen 3 8300G posts a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 12217 and a single-core score of 1724. In Cinebench R20, it reaches 5131 multi-core and 724 single-core, while Cinebench R15 shows 1231 multi-core and 173 single-core. These are the only measured values available for either processor.

The database does not list any head-to-head benchmark entries, nor does it assign win counts to either chip. The Intel Core i5-14501TE appears with an average benchmark score of 0 and a percentile rank of 50, which reflects the absence of recorded test data rather than an actual performance level. The AMD Ryzen 3 8300G, by contrast, holds an average benchmark score of 18169 and sits at the 72nd percentile among all CPUs in the database.

Without Intel scores, the comparison relies on what the AMD chip demonstrates on its own. The Ryzen 3 8300G shows strong multi-threaded throughput for a 4-core, 8-thread part, with the Cinebench R23 multi-core result of 12217 indicating solid scaling across its threads. The single-core score of 1724 in the same test suggests competitive per-thread performance, though no rival number exists to anchor it. The PassMark suite reveals varied strengths: integer math reaches 40534, floating point math hits 25336, and extended instructions score 12354. Data compression posts 158952, while data encryption reaches 9115. Random string sorting records 19013, and find prime numbers scores 47. The multi-thread PassMark score is 14018, with single-thread at 3778.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen 3 8300G wins in every category by default, simply because the Intel Core i5-14501TE has no benchmark results in the database. The AMD chip demonstrates a broad set of recorded strengths across rendering, math workloads, and data processing. The Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 12217 positions it as capable of handling multi-threaded productivity tasks, while the single-core score of 1724 indicates responsiveness in lightly threaded applications. PassMark results show a notable gap between integer math at 40534 and floating point math at 25336, suggesting the architecture favors integer-heavy workloads. Data compression at 158952 is particularly strong, pointing to file compression and archival tasks as a clear use case. Data encryption at 9115 is more modest, implying encryption-heavy operations may not be the primary strength.

The Intel Core i5-14501TE offers no measured wins in this dataset. Its absence of scores means the database cannot attribute any performance advantage to it. The AMD Ryzen 3 8300G therefore takes all recorded victories, with its PassMark single-thread score of 3778 and multi-thread score of 14018 providing the broadest overall picture. The physics score of 755 is relatively low, indicating that simulation or physics-based workloads might not be ideal targets. The extended instructions score of 12354 suggests AVX and similar instruction set extensions deliver moderate throughput. These results collectively show a processor that suits everyday desktop computing, content creation, and data manipulation tasks, but the lack of Intel data leaves the comparative picture incomplete.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen 3 8300G uses the Zen 4 architecture under the Phoenix2 codename, built on a 4 nm process at TSMC. It packs 20,900 million transistors into a 137 mm² die. The Intel Core i5-14501TE employs Raptor Lake architecture under the Raptor Lake-R codename, fabricated on a 10 nm process at Intel, with a die size of 215 mm². The process node difference is substantial: the AMD chip uses a smaller manufacturing process, which typically correlates with higher transistor density and potentially better power efficiency. The Intel chip has no transistor count listed in the database.

Core and thread configurations differ significantly. The AMD Ryzen 3 8300G offers 4 cores and 8 threads, while the Intel Core i5-14501TE provides 6 cores and 12 threads. Despite the AMD chip having fewer physical cores, its base clock of 3.40 GHz and boost clock of 4.90 GHz are notable. The Intel part starts at a lower 2.20 GHz base but boosts to 5.10 GHz, which is the highest recorded clock speed between the two. Thermal design power also diverges: the AMD chip is rated at 65 watts, while the Intel chip draws 45 watts, making the Intel part the lower-power option on paper.

Cache hierarchies show clear differences. The AMD Ryzen 3 8300G uses 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 8 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel Core i5-14501TE has 80 KB of L1 per core, 1.25 MB of L2 per core, and a much larger 24 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel chip's triple-sized L3 cache could benefit workloads that repeatedly access larger datasets. Memory support differs: the AMD chip supports DDR5 only, while the Intel chip supports both DDR4 and DDR5, offering more flexibility in platform choices. The AMD chip has a recorded memory bandwidth of 83.2 GB/s, whereas the Intel chip has no bandwidth figure listed.

Socket and platform requirements separate the two. The AMD Ryzen 3 8300G fits AMD Socket AM5, while the Intel Core i5-14501TE uses Intel Socket 1700. PCIe capabilities differ as well: the AMD chip provides Gen 4 with 14 lanes, while the Intel chip offers Gen 5 with 16 lanes. The newer PCIe generation on the Intel side could matter for storage and GPU bandwidth, though the lane count difference is modest. Integrated graphics also differ: the AMD chip carries a Radeon 740M, while the Intel chip includes UHD Graphics 770. Both support ECC memory, a feature that may appeal to certain workstation users.

The Verdict

The data supports choosing the AMD Ryzen 3 8300G for anyone who needs verified performance metrics. Its benchmark scores are fully recorded, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core result of 12217 and a PassMark multi-thread score of 14018 that demonstrate real capability. The Intel Core i5-14501TE has no benchmark data at all, so no performance-based case can be made for it from the database. The AMD chip also carries a launch MSRP of $176, which is the only pricing information available.

The Intel Core i5-14501TE appeals strictly on specification grounds. It has more cores and threads (6 and 12 versus 4 and 8), a higher boost clock (5.10 GHz versus 4.90 GHz), a larger L3 cache (24 MB versus 8 MB), lower TDP (45 W versus 65 W), PCIe Gen 5 support, and dual DDR4/DDR5 memory compatibility. These features could translate to better multi-threaded performance and platform flexibility, but without benchmark scores, the database cannot confirm any actual advantage.

The AMD Ryzen 3 8300G remains the only processor in this comparison with measurable results. Its 72nd percentile ranking among all CPUs, average benchmark score of 18169, and complete PassMark suite give it a solid evidence base. The nearest rivals in the database include the AMD Ryzen 7 5700U and Intel Core i7-1365U, both with average scores around 18176, and the Intel Core i7-9700 at 18180, which places the Ryzen 3 8300G in familiar company. For users who prioritize verified performance data, the AMD chip is the clear selection. For those who value the Intel chip's higher core count, larger cache, and lower power draw, the lack of recorded benchmarks means any performance claim remains unverified in this dataset.
