AMD Ryzen AI 5 440G vs Intel Processor U303L Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark data presents an extremely one-sided comparison. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440G has no direct head-to-head benchmark results recorded against the Intel Processor U303L, but its PassMark scores stand as the only measurable performance evidence in the database. The Intel Processor U303L has no recorded benchmark results at all, leaving its performance profile entirely unmeasured.

The Ryzen AI 5 440G posts a multithread score of 23487, while its single-thread score reaches 4060. These results place the AMD part at the 89th percentile among all CPUs tracked in the database. The Intel Processor U303L sits at the 50th percentile, but with an average benchmark score of zero, that percentile reflects the absence of data rather than measured performance.

The most informative comparisons come from the nearest rivals to the Ryzen AI 5 440G. The AMD part posts an average benchmark score of 46187. The Intel Core i9-13900HX scores 46098, a delta of just 0.2 percent. The Intel Core Ultra 5 235 scores 46062, also a 0.2 percent delta. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 375 scores 46030, a 0.3 percent gap. The AMD EPYC 4364P scores 45970, a 0.5 percent difference. These clustered results indicate that the Ryzen AI 5 440G delivers performance essentially level with a high-end HX-series laptop processor, a desktop Ultra 5, a flagship Ryzen AI 9 HX part, and a workstation EPYC chip.

Looking at the workload-level results for the Ryzen AI 5 440G, data compression scores 292735, the highest single result in its benchmark suite. Integer math scores 71251, floating point math scores 45711, and extended instructions score 20648. Random string sorting reaches 31106, while data encryption scores 13585. The physics test returns 1329, and find prime numbers scores 90. These figures establish a capable processor across varied workloads, but with no counterpart scores from the Intel U303L, direct comparison is impossible.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from fundamentally different design lineages. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440G uses the Gorgon Point codename and belongs to the Ryzen AI 400 generation built on the Zen 5 and Zen 5c core architecture. It is fabricated on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Processor U303L uses the Raptor Lake architecture with the Raptor Lake-PS codename, part of the Intel Processor generation. It is built on a 10 nm process at Intel's own foundries.

Core counts differ substantially. The AMD chip provides 6 cores and 12 threads. The Intel chip provides 5 cores and 6 threads. The AMD part therefore offers one additional core and double the thread count. Clock speeds also diverge sharply. The Ryzen AI 5 440G has a base clock of 2.00 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz. The Intel Processor U303L has a base clock of 1.20 GHz and a boost clock of 2.60 GHz. The AMD part boosts to nearly double the Intel chip's maximum clock.

Cache layouts differ as well. Both parts use 80 KB of L1 cache per core. The AMD chip uses 1 MB of L2 per core, while the Intel chip uses 1.25 MB per core. The Intel part has more total L3 cache: 12 MB shared, versus 8 MB on the AMD part. The Intel chip also carries a higher per-core L2 allocation, but the AMD chip's higher core count and clock speeds offset that advantage.

The process node gap is significant. The AMD chip's 4 nm TSMC process is two generations ahead of Intel's 10 nm node used for the U303L. The AMD die size measures 195 mm². The Intel die size is not recorded in the database. The AMD part supports DDR5 memory only, while the Intel part supports both DDR4 and DDR5. Both use dual-channel memory buses. Memory bandwidth is recorded at 89.6 GB/s for the AMD chip, while no bandwidth figure exists for the Intel part. ECC memory support is present on the AMD chip but absent on the Intel chip.

PCIe connectivity differs as well. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440G provides Gen 4 with 12 lanes from the CPU. The Intel Processor U303L provides Gen 4 with 8 lanes from the CPU. The AMD part therefore offers more PCIe lanes for expansion devices. The AMD chip uses AMD Socket AM5, while the Intel chip uses Intel Socket 1700. The AMD multiplier is unlocked, while the Intel multiplier is locked. The integrated graphics differ: the AMD part uses Radeon 840M, the Intel part uses UHD Graphics 96EU. The AMD chip is classified as a desktop segment part, while the Intel chip is classified as mobile. The AMD chip has a production status of Active and a release date of 2026-02-28. The Intel chip also has a production status of Active, with a release date of 2024-04-07.

The Verdict

The recorded data supports a clear distinction between these two parts. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440G delivers measured performance at the 89th percentile of all CPUs in the database, with an average benchmark score of 46187 and multithread and single-thread scores of 23487 and 4060, respectively. The Intel Processor U303L has no recorded benchmark scores, an average benchmark score of zero, and sits at the 50th percentile by default rather than by measured result.

The AMD part also offers structural advantages: more cores, more threads, higher base and boost clocks, a smaller process node, ECC memory support, more PCIe lanes, an unlocked multiplier, and a newer release date. The Intel part counters with a larger L3 cache (12 MB versus 8 MB), higher per-core L2 cache (1.25 MB versus 1 MB), support for both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, a lower TDP of 15 versus 65, and a mobile market classification.

The TDP difference of 50 points is the most consequential specification gap. The Intel Processor U303L draws 15 units of power, making it suited to power-constrained mobile environments. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440G draws 65 units, reflecting its desktop classification and higher performance envelope. The data indicates the AMD chip is the performance pick for desktop workloads, while the Intel chip is the efficiency-oriented mobile part. Benchmark results cannot be compared directly because the Intel chip has no recorded scores, but the AMD chip's measured results place it in company with the Core i9-13900HX, Core Ultra 5 235, Ryzen AI 9 HX 375, and EPYC 4364P, all within a 0.5 percent delta of its average score.
