AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS vs Intel Core 5 213PE Comparison

The benchmark data shows a decisive, one-sided contest: the Intel Core 5 213PE wins every single head-to-head test against the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS, recording 17 wins out of 17 comparisons. The Intel processor leads by margins ranging from roughly a third to nearly two-thirds across the board, making the AMD part competitive only in the sense that it is a lower-power mobile chip facing a desktop-class part.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The most striking result is in floating-point math, where the Intel Core 5 213PE scores 68,587 against the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS’s 27,800, a delta of -59.5% for the AMD side. That is the largest single deficit in the entire dataset. The Intel part also dominates prime-number finding, scoring 114 versus 48, a -57.9% gap, and physics workloads show a -49.4% difference with 1,624 versus 821.

Cinebench results follow a consistent pattern. In Cinebench R23, the Intel Core 5 213PE scores 22,468 in multi-core and 3,172 in single-core, while the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS scores 12,342 and 1,742 respectively. Both deltas come in at -45.1%. The same -45.1% figure appears across R15 multi-core (2,264 vs 1,243), R15 single-core (319 vs 175), R20 multi-core (9,436 vs 5,183), and R20 single-core (1,332 vs 731). The consistency suggests a fundamental throughput advantage rather than a workload-specific quirk.

PassMark integer math shows 92,089 for Intel versus 50,800 for AMD, a -44.8% delta, and random string sorting lands at 32,027 versus 17,669, also -44.8%. Data compression favors Intel at 298,804 versus 168,692, a -43.5% gap, while extended instructions show 19,565 versus 11,219, a -42.7% difference. Data encryption is the closest race in relative terms, with Intel leading 15,916 to 10,718, a -32.7% margin, and single-thread scores match that pattern: 4,060 versus 2,740, also -32.5%. The PassMark multithread score of 26,434 versus 14,520 repeats the -45.1% delta seen in Cinebench.

The average benchmark score tells the same story. The Intel Core 5 213PE averages 35,428, placing it in the 85th percentile of all CPUs in the database. The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS averages 19,364, which is the 73rd percentile. The Intel part’s nearest rivals include the Intel Core i7-13700T (35,403, delta 0.1%), Intel Core i7-12700KF (35,365, delta 0.2%), Intel Core i5-13600T (35,305, delta 0.3%), and Intel Core i7-12700K (35,287, delta 0.4%). The AMD part sits near the Intel Core Ultra 5 226V (19,368, delta 0%), Intel Core i5-1345U (19,411, delta -0.2%), Intel Core i7-8700K (19,238, delta 0.7%), and Intel Core i7-10700F (19,499, delta -0.7%). The Intel Core 5 213PE is effectively in a different performance class, matching older high-end desktop chips, while the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS aligns with mid-range laptop processors.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from opposite ends of the market. The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS uses the Zen 3+ architecture, codenamed Rembrandt-R, built on a 6 nm process at TSMC with a die size of 208 mm². It has 6 cores and 12 threads, with a base clock of 3.30 GHz and a boost clock of 4.40 GHz. The Intel Core 5 213PE uses the Bartlett Lake architecture, built on a 10 nm process at Intel, with 8 cores and 16 threads, a base clock of 2.70 GHz, and a boost clock of 5.20 GHz. The Intel part has a higher core count and a significantly higher boost clock, which explains much of its lead in both multi-threaded and single-threaded workloads.

Cache configurations differ substantially. The AMD chip carries 64 KB of L1 per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of shared L3. The Intel chip provides 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 24 MB of shared L3. The larger per-core L2 and total L3 give the Intel part an advantage in workloads that reuse data sets, which shows up in the compression and encryption tests.

Memory support also diverges. The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS supports only DDR5, while the Intel Core 5 213PE supports both DDR4 and DDR5. Both run dual-channel memory with a measured bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s. The Intel part supports ECC memory; the AMD part does not. PCIe connectivity differs as well: the AMD chip offers Gen 4 with 20 lanes (CPU only), while the Intel chip offers Gen 5 with 16 lanes (CPU only). The integrated graphics are separate: Radeon 660M on the AMD side, UHD Graphics 730 on the Intel side.

The power envelope is a major differentiator. The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS has a TDP of 35 watts, typical for a mobile part, while the Intel Core 5 213PE has a TDP of 65 watts, typical for a desktop part. The AMD chip uses AMD Socket FP7, while the Intel chip uses Intel Socket 1700. The AMD part was released on 2024-08-31, the Intel part on 2026-03-08. The Intel part has a launch MSRP of $221, while the AMD part has no recorded launch MSRP. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier.

The Verdict

The data supports a clear conclusion: the Intel Core 5 213PE is the superior processor for raw performance in every measured category. The largest gaps are in floating-point math (-59.5%), prime-number finding (-57.9%), and physics (-49.4%), which point to strengths in scientific, analytical, and simulation workloads. The smallest gaps are in encryption (-32.7%) and single-threaded PassMark (-32.5%), but even those are substantial. If the goal is maximum compute throughput, the Intel part is the choice.

The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS has no benchmark wins in this comparison. Its only apparent advantages are architectural, not performance-based: a lower 35 W TDP, a smaller 6 nm process node, and a newer release date (2024 vs 2026). It also offers more PCIe lanes (20 versus 16) and an earlier socket (FP7 versus LGA 1700). For a system constrained by power or thermal limits, the AMD part would draw less power, but the recorded data does not include any efficiency metrics, so no quantitative power-performance comparison can be made.

The Intel Core 5 213PE’s 85th percentile ranking versus the AMD part’s 73rd percentile underscores the gap. The Intel processor’s average score of 35,428 is roughly 83% higher than the AMD processor’s 19,364, based on the recorded figures. The Intel part matches the performance of the Intel Core i7-12700K and i7-12700KF, both of which are older high-end desktop chips, while the AMD part aligns with the Intel Core i5-1345U, a mid-range laptop part.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core 5 213PE wins in every recorded benchmark, so the use-case split is based on workload emphasis rather than any AMD advantage. For floating-point-heavy tasks such as scientific simulations, 3D rendering, or financial modeling, the Intel part’s 68,587 score in floating-point math versus 27,800 is the standout margin. For integer-heavy workloads like data compression, sorting, or general application logic, the Intel part leads by 44-45% in integer math, random string sorting, and data compression. For single-threaded responsiveness, the Intel part scores 4,060 versus 2,740 in PassMark single-thread, a -32.5% delta, and 3,172 versus 1,742 in Cinebench R23 single-core, a -45.1% delta.

The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS has no benchmark wins, but the data suggests it is positioned for a different context: a 35 W mobile processor with a 6 nm TSMC process, 6 cores, and 12 threads. In a thin-and-light laptop with limited cooling, the AMD part would likely fit the thermal envelope better, but the database records no efficiency or power-draw measurements to confirm that. The AMD part also uses Gen 4 PCIe with 20 lanes versus Gen 5 with 16 lanes, which could matter for systems needing more PCIe devices, though the data does not include I/O throughput tests.

For users prioritizing compute performance, the Intel Core 5 213PE is the only rational choice based on the recorded scores. For users prioritizing a lower TDP or a mobile form factor, the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS is the only available option given its socket and market segment. The Intel part’s 65 W TDP and LGA 1700 socket place it in desktop systems, while the AMD part’s 35 W TDP and FP7 socket place it in laptops. The two are not direct substitutes; the benchmark results simply quantify how much raw performance the Intel desktop part delivers over the AMD mobile part.
