The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G is a 4-core, 8-thread processor built on a 4 nm process with a 71st percentile ranking among all CPUs. The Intel Core i5-14501E is a 6-core, 12-thread processor built on a 10 nm process with a 50th percentile ranking among all CPUs.

The AMD processor has an average benchmark score of 17278 across its recorded tests, placing it in the 71st percentile of all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals include the Intel Core i5-12450H with an average score of 17239 and a delta of 0.2 percent, the AMD Ryzen 3 210 with an average score of 17321 and a delta of -0.2 percent, the AMD Ryzen 5 4500 with an average score of 17333 and a delta of -0.3 percent, and the Intel Core i5-11400F with an average score of 17177 and a delta of 0.6 percent. These deltas are all within one percentage point, indicating that the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G sits in a tightly packed performance cluster.

The Intel Core i5-14501E has no benchmark scores recorded in the database and an average benchmark score of zero, so its percentile ranking of 50 reflects a lack of available measurements rather than a direct performance comparison. The database contains no head-to-head benchmark results between these two processors, and the win counts for each are zero.

For users who prioritize single-thread frequency, the Intel Core i5-14501E offers a higher boost clock at 5.20 GHz versus 4.90 GHz. For users who prioritize multi-thread capacity, the Intel Core i5-14501E offers more cores and threads at 6 cores and 12 threads versus 4 cores and 8 threads. For users who prioritize a smaller process node and higher memory bandwidth, the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G offers a 4 nm process and 83.2 GB/s of memory bandwidth.

The AMD processor has a smaller die size at 137 mm² versus 215 mm² for Intel. The Intel processor has a larger L3 cache at 24 MB versus 8 MB for AMD. The Intel processor also supports PCIe Gen 5, while the AMD processor supports PCIe Gen 4.

The data suggests that the Intel Core i5-14501E is positioned for workloads that benefit from more cores and a larger cache, while the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 8300G is positioned for workloads that benefit from a more modern process node and higher memory bandwidth. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier, so both are fixed-frequency parts.
