AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE vs Intel Core 9 273PTE Comparison

Where Each One Wins

The benchmark data splits this comparison into two very different profiles. The Intel Core 9 273PTE dominates in almost every measured workload, taking 15 of the 17 recorded tests. The AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE wins only the two PassMark single-thread tests, and even there the margin is narrow.

The Intel part is clearly the multi-threaded performer. Its wins span the entire Cinebench suite, from R15 through R23, in both single-core and multi-core runs. It also takes every PassMark compute workload: data compression, data encryption, extended instructions, prime number finding, floating point math, integer math, multithread, physics, and random string sorting. The largest margins appear in prime number finding and physics, where the Intel chip leads by 69% and 60.9% respectively.

The AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE wins the two PassMark single-thread tests by 6.1% each. That is a small but consistent margin, and it is the only area where the AMD chip shows an advantage. For workloads that depend heavily on a single thread, the Ryzen 3 8300GE holds a modest edge, but everywhere else the Intel Core 9 273PTE pulls ahead, often by a wide margin.

The overall average benchmark score reflects this split. The Intel chip averages 31143 across the database, while the AMD chip averages 17614. That puts the Intel part in the 82nd percentile of all CPUs and the AMD part in the 71st percentile. The Intel Core 9 273PTE sits close to the Intel Core i7-12700F, the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS, and the Intel Core i7-13700TE in average score, with deltas of 0.2%, 0.2%, and 0.4% respectively. The AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE is nearly even with the Intel Core i3-14100T, the Intel Core i3-13100F, and the Intel Core i7-1255U, with deltas of -0.2% in each case.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different manufacturing approaches and different design generations. The AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE uses Zen 4 architecture on the Phoenix2 codename, built on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core 9 273PTE uses Bartlett Lake, built on a 10 nm process at Intel. The AMD part has 20,900 million transistors on a 137 mm² die, while the database records no transistor count or die size for the Intel part.

Core counts differ substantially. The AMD chip has 4 cores and 8 threads. The Intel chip has 12 cores and 24 threads. Cache layouts also diverge. The AMD chip has 64 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 8 MB of shared L3. The Intel chip has 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 36 MB of shared L3.

Memory support differs as well. The AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE supports DDR5 only, with dual-channel memory and 83.2 GB/s of bandwidth. The Intel Core 9 273PTE supports both DDR4 and DDR5, also dual-channel, with 89.6 GB/s of bandwidth. Both support ECC memory.

PCIe connectivity is different. The AMD chip provides Gen 4 with 14 lanes from the CPU. The Intel chip provides Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU. The integrated graphics also differ: the AMD part uses Radeon 740M, while the Intel part uses UHD Graphics 730.

The sockets are incompatible. The AMD chip uses AMD Socket AM5, while the Intel chip uses Intel Socket 1700. The AMD part belongs to the 8000 series and the Ryzen 3 generation of Zen 4 Phoenix parts. The Intel part is listed as Core 9 Bartlett Lake.

The clock behavior matters for the single-thread result. The AMD chip has a base clock of 3.50 GHz and a boost clock of 4.90 GHz. The Intel chip has a base clock of 1.40 GHz and a boost clock of 5.50 GHz. The Intel part boosts much higher, yet the AMD part still wins the PassMark single-thread tests. The TDP figures are 35 W for the AMD chip and 45 W for the Intel chip.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The Cinebench results show a consistent pattern. In Cinebench R15 multi-core, the Intel chip scores 2060 against 1179 for the AMD chip, a delta of -42.8%. The single-core R15 result is 290 against 166, also -42.8%. In R20 multi-core, the scores are 8586 against 4916, a -42.7% delta, and the single-core result is 1212 against 693, again -42.8%. In R23 multi-core, the Intel chip scores 20445 against 11705, a -42.7% delta, and the single-core result is 2886 against 1652, a -42.8% delta.

The PassMark suite shows the same direction with varying magnitudes. Data compression goes 258704 against 155164, a -40% delta. Data encryption goes 14253 against 8603, a -39.6% delta. Extended instructions go 15952 against 11923, a -25.3% delta, the smallest Intel margin outside the single-thread tests. Prime number finding goes 142 against 44, a -69% delta, the largest margin of the entire comparison. Floating point math goes 60673 against 24681, a -59.3% delta. Integer math goes 82411 against 39163, a -52.5% delta. Multithread goes 24054 against 13507, a -43.8% delta. Physics goes 1917 against 750, a -60.9% delta. Random string sorting goes 28973 against 18010, a -37.8% delta.

The only AMD wins are the two PassMark single-thread tests, both scoring 3644 against 3433, a 6.1% delta in favor of the AMD chip. The database records these as separate tests, passmark_single_thread and passmark_singlethread, but the scores are identical on both parts.

The pattern is clear. The Intel Core 9 273PTE leads by roughly 40% to 43% across the Cinebench suite, by 37% to 40% in data-oriented PassMark tests, and by more than 50% in math-heavy workloads. The AMD chip only turns the table in the PassMark single-thread measurement, and by a small margin.

The Verdict

The data points to a clear performance hierarchy. The Intel Core 9 273PTE is the faster processor in nearly every recorded workload. Its 12 cores and 24 threads, combined with 36 MB of shared L3 cache and a 5.50 GHz boost clock, deliver large margins in Cinebench multi-core, PassMark multithread, physics, floating point math, and integer math. Its average benchmark score of 31143 places it in the 82nd percentile, and its nearest rivals in the database are the Intel Core i7-12700F, the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS, and the Intel Core i7-13700TE.

The AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE is a lower-power part with a 35 W TDP, 4 cores, and 8 threads. Its average score of 17614 places it in the 71st percentile, near the Intel Core i3-14100T and the Intel Core i3-13100F. Its only recorded win is the PassMark single-thread test, where it beats the Intel chip by 6.1%. That result is notable because the Intel chip has a higher boost clock of 5.50 GHz against 4.90 GHz, yet the AMD chip still takes the single-thread PassMark measurement.

For workloads that use many threads, the Intel Core 9 273PTE is the clear choice from the recorded data. For workloads that depend heavily on a single PassMark-style thread, the AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE has a small but real advantage. The Intel part also offers PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes, DDR4 and DDR5 support, and a larger L3 cache. The AMD part offers a smaller process node, lower TDP, and a higher base clock.

The database records the Intel part with a launch MSRP of $549 and a release date of 2026-03-08. The AMD part has no recorded launch MSRP and a release date of 2024-04-15. The choice between them depends on whether the workload favors the Intel part's massive multi-thread lead or the AMD part's narrow single-thread win. The benchmark data does not show any other area where the AMD chip takes the lead.
