AMD Ryzen 5 5605GE vs Intel Core 5 213PE Comparison

The Verdict

The database contains benchmark records for only one of these two processors. The AMD Ryzen 5 5605GE has no recorded benchmark scores, no average score, and no percentile ranking. The Intel Core 5 213PE, by contrast, carries a full set of benchmark results across Cinebench and Passmark tests, an average benchmark score of 35428, and sits at the 85th percentile of all CPUs in the database.

For the AMD Ryzen 5 5605GE, the data cannot support any performance claims. It is a 6-core, 12-thread Zen 3 processor on a 7 nm TSMC node, with a 35 W TDP, a 3.40 GHz base clock, and a 4.40 GHz boost clock. It uses AMD Socket AM4 and supports DDR4 memory. The processor is marked as Active in production and was released in February 2025, but no measurements exist for it in the database.

For the Intel Core 5 213PE, the recorded measurements are extensive and consistent. It scores 22468 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 3172 in single-core. Its average benchmark score of 35428 places it within 0.1% of the Intel Core i7-13700T (35403), within 0.2% of the Intel Core i7-12700KF (35365), within 0.3% of the Intel Core i5-13600T (35305), and within 0.4% of the Intel Core i7-12700K (35287). That clustering indicates the Core 5 213PE performs at a level comparable to those established desktop parts, despite its 65 W TDP and 8-core, 16-thread configuration.

Who should pick which, strictly from the data: any selection based on measured performance must favor the Intel Core 5 213PE, because the AMD part has no recorded scores. The AMD Ryzen 5 5605GE offers a lower TDP (35 W versus 65 W) and an unlocked multiplier, but the database provides no benchmark evidence for its performance. The Intel part also supports ECC memory, which the AMD part does not, and it has a launch MSRP of $221.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core 5 213PE wins every measurable category in the database, simply because the AMD Ryzen 5 5605GE has no benchmark entries. The Intel processor's recorded wins include multi-threaded rendering, single-thread rendering, integer math, floating-point math, encryption, compression, and sorting workloads.

In Cinebench R23, the Intel part scores 22468 multi-core and 3172 single-core. In Cinebench R20, it scores 9436 multi-core and 1332 single-core. In Cinebench R15, it scores 2264 multi-core and 319 single-core. Those three Cinebench generations all show the same pattern: strong scaling from single-core to multi-core, with the multi-core score roughly seven times the single-core score in R23.

In Passmark tests, the Intel part shows particular strength in data compression, scoring 298804, and in integer math, scoring 92089. Floating-point math reaches 68587, and extended instructions reach 19565. The multithread score is 26434, single-thread is 4060, physics is 1624, random string sorting is 32027, and data encryption is 15916. The find prime numbers result is 114.

The AMD part has no wins because it has no data. The architecture differences, however, suggest where the AMD part might compete if measurements existed: its 35 W TDP and unlocked multiplier are traits the Intel part lacks, but those are features, not benchmark results. The Intel part's 85th percentile ranking and 35428 average score are the only performance facts the database supports.

The Intel part's boost clock is 0.80 GHz higher, but its base clock is 0.70 GHz lower.

Cache layouts are distinct. The AMD part provides 64 KB of L1 per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of L3 cache. The Intel part provides 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 24 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel part has larger per-core L1 and L2 caches and a larger total L3 cache.

Memory support diverges. The AMD part supports only DDR4, while the Intel part supports both DDR4 and DDR5. Both use dual-channel memory buses. The recorded memory bandwidth is 51.2 GB/s for the AMD part and 76.8 GB/s for the Intel part, a 25.6 GB/s difference in the Intel part's favor. ECC memory support is present on the Intel part and absent on the AMD part.

PCIe connectivity differs by generation and lane count. The AMD part uses PCIe Gen 3 with 16 lanes from the CPU. The Intel part uses PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU. Integrated graphics also differ: the AMD part uses Radeon Vega 7, while the Intel part uses UHD Graphics 730.

Other differences: the AMD part has an unlocked multiplier, while the Intel part is locked. The AMD part uses AMD Socket AM4, while the Intel part uses Intel Socket 1700. The AMD part was released in February 2025, and the Intel part was released in March 2026. The AMD part has a 35 W TDP, and the Intel part has a 65 W TDP, a 30 W difference.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The head-to-head benchmark table in the database is empty, and the AMD Ryzen 5 5605GE has no benchmark entries at all. The only measurable head-to-head comparison available is the Intel Core 5 213PE against its nearest rivals, and the AMD part's absence from the data.

The Intel Core 5 213PE's Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 22468 is its largest absolute multi-threaded result. Its R23 single-core score of 3172 is its largest single-thread result. In Passmark, the largest scores are data compression at 298804, integer math at 92089, and floating-point math at 68587. The multithread score is 26434, and single-thread is 4060.

The AMD Ryzen 5 5605GE's architecture provides context for what could have been measured, but no numbers exist. Its 6 cores and 12 threads at a 4.40 GHz boost clock, with 16 MB of L3 cache and 51.2 GB/s memory bandwidth, are the only specifications recorded. The Intel part, with 8 cores, 16 threads, a 5.20 GHz boost clock, 24 MB of shared L3 cache, and 76.8 GB/s memory bandwidth, holds advantages in every one of those specifications.

The nearest rival comparisons for the Intel part are tight. The largest delta is 0.4% ahead of the Intel Core i7-12700K (35287), and the smallest is 0.1% ahead of the Intel Core i7-13700T (35403). The Intel Core 5 213PE's 85th percentile ranking across all CPUs in the database reflects that positioning.

For the AMD Ryzen 5 5605GE, the percentile versus all CPUs is 50, and the average benchmark score is 0. Those are placeholder values, not measured results. The database contains no Cinebench or Passmark scores for the AMD part, so no head-to-head win can be credited to it. The Intel Core 5 213PE, with 17 recorded benchmark results, is the only processor in this comparison with performance data, and it wins every available benchmark by default.
