AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE vs Intel Xeon Gold 6334 Comparison

The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE and the Intel Xeon Gold 6334 are both 8-core, 16-thread processors, but they target fundamentally different computing environments. Benchmark data shows a consistent, if narrow, performance advantage for the AMD part across all tested workloads. The Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE wins all six head-to-head comparisons, with deltas of 4.8% to 4.9% in both single-core and multi-core Cinebench tests. However, the Xeon Gold 6334 counters with a dramatically different platform feature set, including eight-channel memory and 64 PCIe Gen 4 lanes, making it a data-centric server part rather than a desktop competitor.

The Verdict

The data presents a clear bifurcation in use cases. For raw compute per socket, the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE is the outright winner in every benchmark recorded. Its average benchmark score of 5070 places it 0.5% ahead of the Xeon Gold 6334's 5043, a margin reflected in its nearest rival list, where the Xeon Gold 6334 sits with a deltaPct of -0.5%. The Ryzen part also edges out the Xeon Gold 6334 in the overall percentile ranking, though both sit at the 60th percentile of all CPUs.

Choose the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE if your priority is maximum Cinebench throughput per CPU, lower platform power consumption, or a desktop-oriented AM4 socket with integrated graphics. Its 35 TDP and Radeon Vega 8 iGPU make it a highly efficient, self-contained computing package. The data shows it leads in multi-core Cinebench R23 with a score of 18272 versus 17435, a 4.8% advantage.

Choose the Intel Xeon Gold 6334 if your workload depends on memory bandwidth or PCIe expansion capacity rather than raw core speed. Its eight-channel DDR4 memory bus delivers 204.8 GB/s of bandwidth, exactly four times the 51.2 GB/s of the Ryzen part. The Xeon also provides 64 PCIe Gen 4 lanes versus 16 Gen 3 lanes on the AMD chip. These are platform-level advantages that no CPU benchmark score can capture. The Xeon Gold 6334 is built for memory-intensive server tasks, while the Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE is built for efficient, general-purpose computing.

Architecture Differences

The two processors represent divergent architectural philosophies. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE is built on TSMC's 7 nm process node, utilizing the Zen 3 architecture with the Cezanne codename. It integrates 10,700 million transistors on a 180 mm² die. The Intel Xeon Gold 6334 uses Intel's 10 nm process with the Ice Lake-SP architecture. The Intel part's transistor count and die size are not listed in the data, but the process node difference is significant: 7 nm versus 10 nm.

Cache hierarchies also differ. Both parts have 64 KB of L1 cache per core, but the Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE has 512 KB of L2 per core, while the Xeon Gold 6334 doubles this to 1 MB per core. The L3 cache configuration is also distinct: the AMD chip has 16 MB total, while the Intel chip has 18 MB shared. This gives the Xeon a larger total cache pool, though the per-core L2 advantage is more pronounced.

The platform sockets are entirely different. The Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE uses AMD Socket AM4, a mainstream desktop platform, while the Xeon Gold 6334 requires Intel Socket 4189, a server-class platform. This fundamental difference dictates the entire system design, from motherboard chipset to memory topology. The AMD part also includes integrated Radeon Vega 8 graphics, whereas the Xeon Gold 6334 has no integrated graphics listed, requiring a discrete GPU for display output.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark results are remarkably consistent across all six tests, with the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE winning every single comparison. The margin is uniform, hovering near 4.8% in all cases. In Cinebench R15 multi-core, the AMD part scores 1841 against the Intel's 1757, a 4.8% advantage. The single-core R15 test shows 259 versus 247, a 4.9% delta.

The pattern holds in Cinebench R20. The Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE posts a multi-core score of 7674, while the Xeon Gold 6334 manages 7322, again a 4.8% gap. Single-core R20 results are 1083 versus 1033, another 4.8% delta. The most modern test, Cinebench R23, shows the same story: the AMD part achieves 18272 multi-core and 2579 single-core, while the Intel part reaches 17435 and 2461, respectively. Both deltas register at 4.8%.

The Geekbench results are only available for the AMD part, which scores 6918 multi-core and 1933 single-core. No comparable Geekbench data exists for the Xeon Gold 6334 in the fact pack, so a direct comparison on that test is not possible. The overall head-to-head record stands at 6 wins for the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE and 0 wins for the Intel Xeon Gold 6334. The consistency of the 4.8% delta across all Cinebench iterations suggests a fundamental per-clock efficiency advantage for the Zen 3 architecture in this comparison.

Specification Differences

The specification table reveals stark contrasts beyond the core count, which is identical at 8 cores and 16 threads. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE has a base clock of 3.20 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. The Intel Xeon Gold 6334 has a higher base clock of 3.60 GHz but a dramatically lower boost clock of only 3.70 GHz. The AMD part's boost advantage of 0.9 GHz likely explains its consistent benchmark lead.

The TDP figures are wildly different. The AMD part is rated at 35 watts, while the Intel part draws 165 watts. This nearly five-fold difference in thermal design power underscores the efficiency gap between the two designs. The Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE achieves higher benchmark scores while consuming a fraction of the power budget of the Xeon Gold 6334.

Memory support is a major differentiator. Both support DDR4, but the AMD part uses a dual-channel bus with 51.2 GB/s bandwidth, while the Intel part uses an eight-channel bus with 204.8 GB/s bandwidth. Both support ECC memory. The PCIe capabilities also differ: the AMD chip provides 16 Gen 3 lanes, while the Intel chip provides 64 Gen 4 lanes. The Xeon Gold 6334 offers four times the PCIe lanes with double the bandwidth per lane, a critical factor for server workloads requiring many high-speed peripherals.

The release dates are close, with the Intel Xeon Gold 6334 launching on 2021-04-05 and the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE launching on 2021-05-31. Both parts are marked as Active in production status, and neither has an unlocked multiplier. The AMD part has a part number of 100-000000257, while the Intel part's part number is not listed.
