AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE vs Intel Core 7 350 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark data presents a decisive split between these two processors. AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE wins 12 of the 17 recorded comparisons, while Intel Core 7 350 takes 5. The multi-core results are particularly lopsided. In Cinebench R23 multi-core, the AMD part scores 17,759 against 8,030 for Intel, a 121.2% advantage. That is the single largest delta in the entire dataset. Cinebench R15 multi-core shows a 46.6% lead (1,789 vs. 1,220), and Cinebench R20 multi-core shows 7,458 vs. 5,373, a 38.8% gap.

PassMark integer math is even more one-sided. The AMD processor delivers 84,004 points vs. 33,734, a 149% difference. Data compression, a common workstation workload, favors AMD by 76.7% (252,937 vs. 143,123). Random string sorting shows a 58.8% lead for AMD (27,373 vs. 17,238), and data encryption lands at 54.9% ahead (16,937 vs. 10,933). Extended instructions score 17,029 vs. 12,045, a 41.4% margin. Even floating point math, an area where Intel parts typically close gaps, shows AMD ahead by 8.8% (46,589 vs. 42,809). PassMark multithread confirms the pattern: 20,870 vs. 15,170, a 37.6% difference.

The Intel Core 7 350 wins on the single-threaded front, though the margins are smaller. PassMark single-thread score is 4,100 vs. 3,353, an 18.2% advantage. Cinebench R15 single-core is 292 vs. 252, a 13.7% lead. The Intel chip also takes PassMark physics at 1,173 vs. 841 (28.3% ahead) and PassMark find prime numbers at 107 vs. 50 (53.3% ahead). Notably, Cinebench R20 single-core goes the other way: AMD wins 1,052 vs. 758, a 38.8% margin. That inversion is unusual and suggests the AMD core is competitive in certain single-thread workloads despite losing the PassMark single-thread test.

The overall average benchmark score reinforces the picture. AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE sits at 29,656, placing it in the 81st percentile of all CPUs in the database. Intel Core 7 350 averages 17,779, good for the 71st percentile. The nearest rivals for AMD include AMD Ryzen 5 9600X at 29,713 (-0.2%) and AMD Ryzen 7 7840H at 29,868 (-0.7%), meaning the 5755GE trades blows with much newer parts. Intel's nearest rivals include Intel Core 5 120U at 17,898 (-0.7%) and AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT at 17,891 (-0.6%), which places the Core 7 350 in a much older performance class.

Architecture Differences

The two chips are built around fundamentally different designs. AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE uses the Zen 3 architecture with the codename Cezanne, manufactured on a 7 nm process at TSMC. It packs 8 cores and 16 threads, with a base clock of 3.20 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. The CPU package contains 10,700 million transistors on a 180 mm² die. Cache is organized as 64 KB L1 per core, 512 KB L2 per core, and 16 MB of shared L3.

Intel Core 7 350 uses the Wildcat Lake codename, built on a 3 nm process at Intel. It is a mobile part with 6 cores and 6 threads, meaning no hyper-threading. Base clock is 1.50 GHz with a boost of 4.80 GHz. The Intel design uses a different cache hierarchy: 192 KB L1 per core, 2.5 MB L2 per core, and 6 MB of shared L3. Transistor count and die size are not recorded in the database.

Power envelopes differ substantially. The AMD part has a 35 W TDP and targets the desktop segment with AMD Socket AM4. The Intel part has a 15 W TDP and is a mobile chip on Intel BGA 1516. Memory support is another major split. AMD uses DDR4 with a dual-channel bus and 51.2 GB/s bandwidth. Intel uses DDR5 and LPDDR5X with a single-channel bus but higher bandwidth at 59.7 GB/s. Neither chip supports ECC memory.

PCIe connectivity also differs. AMD provides Gen 3 with 16 lanes from the CPU. Intel provides Gen 4 with only 6 lanes from the CPU. The integrated graphics are distinct as well: AMD pairs with Radeon Vega 8, while Intel uses Xe3 Graphics with 2 Xe cores. Both processors have locked multipliers. The AMD part was released on 2024-09-04, while the Intel part carries a release date of 2026-04-15. The Intel launch MSRP is $469.

FAQ

Q: Which processor is faster in multi-core workloads?

A: The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE dominates multi-core tests. Cinebench R23 multi-core shows a 121.2% lead (17,759 vs. 8,030), Cinebench R15 multi-core shows 46.6% (1,789 vs. 1,220), and Cinebench R20 multi-core shows 38.8% (7,458 vs. 5,373). PassMark multithread also favors AMD at 20,870 vs. 15,170, a 37.6% margin.

Q: How do the overall benchmark averages compare?

A: AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE has an average benchmark score of 29,656 and sits in the 81st percentile of all CPUs. Intel Core 7 350 averages 17,779 and sits in the 71st percentile. AMD's nearest rival is AMD Ryzen 5 9600X at 29,713 (-0.2%), while Intel's nearest rival is Intel Core 5 120U at 17,898 (-0.7%).

Q: Why does the AMD chip have so many more threads?

A: The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE has 8 cores and 16 threads, while the Intel Core 7 350 has 6 cores and 6 threads. The Intel part does not use simultaneous multithreading, which explains why its thread count equals its core count.

A: The Intel Core 7 350 boosts to 4.80 GHz, while the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE boosts to 4.60 GHz. The Intel chip also has a lower base clock at 1.50 GHz vs. 3.20 GHz for AMD.

The Verdict

The data supports a clear functional split. For multi-threaded workloads, rendering, and integer-heavy tasks, the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE is the stronger part. Its 121.2% lead in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 149% lead in PassMark integer math are not marginal differences; they represent a different performance class entirely. The 8-core, 16-thread configuration with 16 MB of L3 cache gives it a structural advantage in parallel work. Its 81st percentile overall ranking places it alongside AMD Ryzen 5 9600X and above AMD Ryzen 7 7840H in the database's nearest rival list.

The Intel Core 7 350 is better suited to single-threaded and power-constrained scenarios. It wins PassMark single-thread by 18.2%, PassMark physics by 28.3%, and PassMark find prime numbers by 53.3%. Its 15 W TDP is less than half of the AMD part's 35 W TDP, and its 3 nm process node gives it a manufacturing advantage. The single-channel memory bus and 6 MB of shared L3, however, limit its ceiling in memory-sensitive and multi-threaded work.

One notable anomaly is Cinebench R20 single-core, where AMD wins 1,052 vs. 758, a 38.8% margin. This contradicts the Intel wins in other single-thread tests and indicates that the AMD Zen 3 core is not uniformly slower in single-thread performance. Buyers choosing between these chips should weigh the AMD part's overwhelming multi-core advantage and higher percentile ranking against the Intel part's single-thread wins and lower power draw. The 71st percentile placement for Intel, with nearest rivals including the older AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT, suggests the Core 7 350 competes in a lower performance tier despite its newer process node.
