AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G vs Intel Core 3 201TE Comparison

# AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G vs Intel Core 3 201TE

The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G holds a decisive performance advantage over the Intel Core 3 201TE, based on recorded benchmark data. The Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G posts an average benchmark score of 17,278, placing it in the 71st percentile of all CPUs in the database, while the Intel Core 3 201TE has no recorded benchmark scores and sits at the 50th percentile. The Intel part's average benchmark score is listed as 0, indicating that no measurement data exists for it in the database. Consequently, every performance comparison in this analysis relies exclusively on the AMD processor's scores, with the Intel Core 3 201TE evaluated on its architectural and specification differences alone.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark entries comparing the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G and the Intel Core 3 201TE directly. The Intel Core 3 201TE has an empty benchmark record, meaning its raw performance cannot be quantified against the AMD part in any of the standard test suites. The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G, however, has a full benchmark profile that establishes its capabilities.

In Cinebench R23, the Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G scores 12,359 in multi-core and 1,744 in single-core. These figures represent strong throughput for a 4-core, 8-thread desktop processor. In Cinebench R20, the same processor scores 5,190 multi-core and 732 single-core. The Cinebench R15 results show 1,245 multi-core and 175 single-core. PassMark results reinforce the pattern: multi-thread score of 13,368, single-thread score of 3,550, integer math at 37,292, floating point math at 23,374, and extended instructions at 11,451. Data compression reaches 150,567, data encryption hits 8,607, random string sorting completes at 19,703, and the find prime numbers test yields 47. Physics testing records 772.

Because the Intel Core 3 201TE has no benchmark data, the relative performance gap is not measurable in percentage terms. The nearest rivals to the AMD processor in the database provide context: the Intel Core i5-12450H averages 17,239 with a delta of 0.2% relative to the Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G, the AMD Ryzen 3 210 averages 17,321 with a delta of -0.2%, the AMD Ryzen 5 4500 averages 17,333 with a delta of -0.3%, and the Intel Core i5-11400F averages 17,177 with a delta of 0.6%. The Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G thus sits within a tight cluster of comparable performers, trailing the Ryzen 3 210 by 0.2% and the Ryzen 5 4500 by 0.3%, while leading the Intel Core i5-12450H by 0.2% and the Intel Core i5-11400F by 0.6% in average score.

The Intel Core 3 201TE, with no scores recorded, cannot be positioned in this cluster. Its percentile ranking of 50 against all CPUs suggests mid-pack placement, but the absence of measurement data leaves its exact standing undefined.

Architecture Differences

The two processors diverge fundamentally in architecture and manufacturing. The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G uses the Zen 4 architecture with the Phoenix2 codename, built on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core 3 201TE uses the Bartlett Lake codename with a 10 nm process at Intel's own foundry. The AMD part belongs to the Ryzen 3 line under the Zen 4 (Phoenix) generation, while the Intel part belongs to the Core 3 line under the Bartlett Lake generation.

Transistor counts and die sizes differ substantially. The AMD processor integrates 20,900 million transistors on a 137 mm² die. The Intel processor reports no transistor count in the database, but its die size is larger at 163 mm². Cache hierarchies also differ. The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G allocates 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 8 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel Core 3 201TE allocates 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 1.25 MB of L2 cache per core, and 12 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel part therefore carries larger per-core caches and 50% more shared L3 cache, while the AMD part compensates with a denser process node.

Memory support separates the two as well. The AMD processor supports DDR5 memory only, with dual-channel configuration and a memory bandwidth of 83.2 GB/s. The Intel processor supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, also dual-channel, with a memory bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s. Both processors support ECC memory. PCIe connectivity differs: the AMD part provides Gen 4 with 14 lanes (CPU only), while the Intel part provides Gen 5 with 16 lanes (CPU only). Integrated graphics also differ, with the AMD Radeon 740M on the Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G and the Intel UHD Graphics 730 on the Core 3 201TE.

Clock speeds favor the AMD part. The Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G has a base clock of 3.40 GHz and a boost clock of 4.90 GHz. The Intel Core 3 201TE has a base clock of 2.90 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. Both processors have unlocked multipliers set to false, so neither supports user overclocking through the multiplier. Thermal design power differs, with the AMD part rated at 65 watts and the Intel part at 45 watts.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G wins in every measurable performance category, simply because it has recorded scores and the Intel Core 3 201TE has none. The data shows the AMD processor delivers strong multi-threaded throughput with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 12,359 and a PassMark multi-thread score of 13,368. Single-thread performance is equally solid, with a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1,744 and a PassMark single-thread score of 3,550. The processor handles integer-heavy workloads at 37,292 in PassMark integer math and floating-point workloads at 23,374 in floating point math. Data compression tasks complete at 150,567, and data encryption at 8,607.

The Intel Core 3 201TE, by contrast, has no benchmark wins recorded in the database. Its architectural advantages, namely larger per-core caches (80 KB L1 and 1.25 MB L2 per core), a larger shared L3 cache of 12 MB, and PCIe Gen 5 support with 16 lanes, suggest potential strengths in cache-sensitive or I/O-bound scenarios, but no measurement data confirms these advantages. The Intel part also supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, giving it broader memory compatibility than the AMD part's DDR5-only support.

The thermal envelope favors the Intel part in power-constrained contexts. The 45 watt TDP of the Intel Core 3 201TE is lower than the 65 watt TDP of the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G, which could make the Intel processor easier to cool in compact desktop builds. However, the database records no efficiency benchmarks, so the actual performance-per-watt ratio cannot be stated.

Specification Differences

Both processors share 4 cores and 8 threads, but nearly every other specification differs. The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G has a base clock of 3.40 GHz versus 2.90 GHz on the Intel Core 3 201TE, and a boost clock of 4.90 GHz versus 4.60 GHz. TDP is 65 watts for the AMD part and 45 watts for the Intel part. Sockets differ: AMD Socket AM5 for the Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G, Intel Socket 1700 for the Core 3 201TE.

The Verdict

The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G is the clear choice for anyone seeking measured performance, based on the database records. Its average benchmark score of 17,278 with a 71st percentile ranking across all CPUs places it in the upper tier of desktop processors, and its full suite of Cinebench and PassMark scores demonstrates capability in both single-threaded and multi-threaded workloads. The nearest rivals, all scoring within 0.6% of the AMD part, confirm that the Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G performs on par with established mid-range processors from both AMD and Intel.

The Intel Core 3 201TE cannot be recommended on performance grounds, because the database contains no benchmark scores for it. Its architectural features, including a larger 12 MB L3 cache, PCIe Gen 5 support, dual DDR4/DDR5 memory compatibility, and a lower 45 watt TDP, give it theoretical advantages in specific use cases like memory flexibility and reduced power draw. Its 50th percentile ranking, however, indicates an average standing with no measured evidence to support a performance claim. The Intel part also carries a launch MSRP of $134, while the AMD part has no recorded launch price, but pricing considerations fall outside the performance analysis.

For users who require verified performance data, the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G delivers across the board. For users who prioritize low power consumption, broader memory compatibility, or PCIe Gen 5 connectivity, the Intel Core 3 201TE offers those features, but without benchmark confirmation of its actual speed. The data, as recorded, favors the AMD processor in every measurable benchmark category.
