AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 7645 vs Intel Core 5 213PTE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark database records 17 head-to-head comparisons between the Intel Core 5 213PTE and the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 7645. Intel takes 12 of those wins, AMD takes 5. The overall picture is a close contest in heavily threaded workloads, with decisive separation emerging in specialized math and cryptographic tasks.

In the Cinebench suite, the Intel part wins every single test, but by margins that are almost negligible. The R15 multicore run scores 2192 against 2188, a delta of 0.2%. R15 singlecore shows 309 against 308, a 0.3% edge. R20 multicore: 9135 versus 9118 (0.2%). R20 singlecore: 1289 versus 1287 (0.2%). R23 multicore: 21751 versus 21710 (0.2%). R23 singlecore: 3070 versus 3065 (0.2%). Across all six Cinebench tests, the largest lead for Intel is a mere 0.3 percentage points. These are effectively tied scores; the difference is within run-to-run noise for most workloads.

The PassMark multithread test tells a similar story: Intel wins 25590 to 25489, a 0.4% delta. PassMark single thread also goes to Intel, 3718 to 3652, a 1.8% advantage. That single-thread lead is the second-largest Intel margin in the entire comparison, and it aligns with the boost clock difference: Intel boosts to 5.20 GHz, AMD to 5.10 GHz.

The real separation appears in the specialized PassMark tests. Intel dominates floating-point math with a score of 71722 against AMD's 45202, a 58.7% advantage. That is the single largest delta in the entire head-to-head table. Integer math also goes strongly to Intel: 93109 versus 74782, a 24.5% lead. Physics simulation is another Intel win, 2199 versus 1598, a 37.6% margin. These three tests indicate that the Intel chip has substantially higher throughput in scalar arithmetic and physics-heavy code, despite the near-tie in the Cinebench renders.

AMD's wins are concentrated in data handling and cryptographic work. Data compression favors AMD by 8.8% (286298 versus 261083). Data encryption favors AMD by 13.5% (16657 versus 14413). Extended instructions favor AMD by 26% (21813 versus 16146). Prime number finding favors AMD by 20.7% (198 versus 157). Random string sorting favors AMD by 12.9% (34557 versus 30106). The extended instructions result is notable: AMD's Zen 4 architecture includes newer SIMD and cryptographic instruction extensions, and the 26% lead in that specific benchmark reflects that capability.

The win count is lopsided (12 to 5), but the margin distribution is not. Intel's victories in Cinebench and multithread are tiny, while its wins in math and physics are massive. AMD's five wins are all in the 8.8% to 26% range, which are meaningful deltas. The average benchmark score in the database shows Intel at 32924 and AMD at 32446, a 1.5% overall gap.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different design schools. Intel's Core 5 213PTE is built on a 10 nm process at Intel's own foundry, with the codename Bartlett Lake. It is an 8-core, 16-thread part. AMD's Ryzen 5 PRO 7645 uses TSMC's 5 nm process, with the Zen 4 architecture and codename Raphael. It is a 6-core, 12-thread part. The core count difference explains why Intel wins multithread tests by small margins: two additional cores help close the gap against AMD's higher base clock and more efficient architecture.

The cache configurations differ significantly. Intel provides 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 24 MB of shared L3. AMD provides 64 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 32 MB of shared L3. AMD's larger L3 (32 MB versus 24 MB) is likely a factor in its data compression and encryption wins, as those workloads benefit from larger working sets in cache.

The memory interfaces are similar in width but differ in speed. Both are dual-channel, but Intel supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory with a bandwidth rating of 76.8 GB/s. AMD supports only DDR5 with a bandwidth rating of 83.2 GB/s. AMD's 8.3% higher memory bandwidth aligns with its advantages in data-heavy tasks.

PCIe connectivity also differs. Intel provides Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU. AMD provides Gen 5 with 24 lanes from the CPU. AMD's additional lanes give it more headroom for expansion, though the benchmark data does not directly measure PCIe throughput.

The integrated graphics differ. Intel uses UHD Graphics 730, AMD uses Radeon Graphics. Neither is a gaming-class iGPU, but they are present for display output and basic acceleration.

The process node gap is substantial: 10 nm for Intel versus 5 nm for AMD. AMDs smaller node, combined with a 65 W TDP versus Intel's 45 W TDP, suggests AMD is using more power to achieve its clock behavior. AMD's base clock is much higher at 3.80 GHz versus Intel's 2.10 GHz, but Intel's boost clock is higher at 5.20 GHz versus AMD's 5.10 GHz. This base clock disparity is notable: AMD runs at a high sustained frequency, while Intel relies on boost to reach its peak.

The transistor count and die size are only listed for AMD: 6,570 million transistors on a 71 mm² die. Intel's transistor count and die size are not recorded in the database.

Memory support and ECC: both processors support ECC memory. Intel officially lists DDR4 and DDR5, which is a broader compatibility range. AMD lists only DDR5.

The market segments differ: Intel is listed as Desktop, AMD is listed as Server/Workstation. This classification suggests AMD is positioned for professional workloads, which may explain its strengths in encryption and extended instructions.

The Verdict

The data paints a clear picture: for general rendering and multithreaded productivity, these two CPUs are effectively indistinguishable. The Cinebench R23 multicore scores differ by only 41 points out of 21751, a 0.2% delta. Any user choosing between them for video rendering or CPU-based 3D work should expect nearly identical performance.

For floating-point and integer math, the Intel Core 5 213PTE is the definitive choice. Its 58.7% lead in floating-point math and 24.5% lead in integer math make it substantially faster for scientific computation, financial modeling, and any workload that stresses scalar arithmetic. The physics test result (37.6% ahead) reinforces this pattern.

For data compression, encryption, and extended instruction workloads, the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 7645 is clearly superior. Its 26% lead in extended instructions and 13.5% lead in encryption suggest that AMD's Zen 4 architecture has better support for modern cryptographic and SIMD instruction sets. The 8.8% lead in data compression is also relevant for database and archival tasks.

The single-thread comparison slightly favors Intel (1.8% in PassMark), but this is a minor edge. The multithread comparison also favors Intel (0.4%), but again, marginally.

Given the overall average benchmark scores (32924 for Intel, 32446 for AMD, a 1.5% gap), the Intel chip has a slight edge in aggregate. However, the choice should be workload-driven. Users with math-heavy or physics-heavy code should select the Intel Core 5 213PTE. Users dealing with compression, encryption, or extended SIMD instruction sets should select the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 7645. For mixed general-purpose use, the data shows a near-tie, with Intel's higher win count in the head-to-head table providing a nominal advantage.

Both processors sit at the 83rd percentile of all CPUs, meaning they are strong mid-range performers. Neither is a clear winner across the board; the benchmark database records complementary strengths.
