The Verdict

The recorded data shows a clear split between the two processors based on multi-threaded workload capacity and platform-level features. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE, with 6 cores and 12 threads, is positioned for users who prioritize parallel execution and higher memory bandwidth. Its 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth and 4 nm process node indicate a design focused on efficiency and throughput.

The Intel Core 3 201E, with 4 cores and 8 threads, holds advantages in single-thread responsiveness due to its higher base clock of 3.60 GHz. It also offers 12 MB of L3 cache, which is 4 MB more than the AMD part, and supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, providing broader platform compatibility. The Intel part is the only one with a recorded launch MSRP of $134.

Benchmark data is only available for the Intel Core 3 201E, showing an average benchmark score of 19056. This places it in the 73rd percentile of all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS with a delta of 0%, the Intel Core i5-12400F with a delta of 0.1%, and the Intel Core i5-1335U with a delta of 0.4%. Without direct measured scores for the AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE, the database does not yet support a definitive performance ranking between the two.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

Direct head-to-head benchmark results are not recorded in the database for this pairing. The measurement set contains no scores for the AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE, and the wins count for each side is zero. As such, a precise comparison of application-level performance cannot be drawn from the current data.

The available Intel Core 3 201E benchmark scores provide a reference point for its own capabilities. In Cinebench R23, the Intel part scores 12613 in multi-core and 1780 in single-core. In Cinebench R20, it scores 5297 multi-core and 747 single-core. PassMark results show a multithread score of 14839, a single-thread score of 3482, floating point math at 33260, and integer math at 43894. Data compression scores 164160, while data encryption scores 8931.

Given the lack of AMD scores, the database cannot confirm which processor wins any given workload. The only factual statement available is that the Intel Core 3 201E has a recorded average benchmark score of 19056, which ranks it at the 73rd percentile, and that its nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS, is statistically tied at a 0% delta.

Specification Differences

The two processors differ in several fundamental specifications. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE uses 6 cores and 12 threads, while the Intel Core 3 201E uses 4 cores and 8 threads. Base clocks differ significantly: the AMD part runs at 2.00 GHz, while the Intel part runs at 3.60 GHz. Both share the same 4.80 GHz boost clock.

Thermal design power differs, with the AMD part rated at 35 W and the Intel part rated at 60 W. The AMD processor uses AMD Socket AM5, while the Intel processor uses Intel Socket 1700. The AMD part has a smaller die size at 195 mm² compared to the Intel part at 163 mm².

Memory support differs in type and bandwidth. The AMD part supports DDR5 only, with dual-channel memory and 89.6 GB/s bandwidth. The Intel part supports both DDR4 and DDR5, also dual-channel, but with 76.8 GB/s bandwidth. PCIe connectivity differs as well: the AMD part provides Gen 4 with 12 lanes (CPU only), while the Intel part provides Gen 5 with 16 lanes (CPU only).

Integrated graphics differ: the AMD part uses Radeon 840M, while the Intel part uses UHD Graphics 730. The AMD multiplier is unlocked, while the Intel multiplier is locked. The Intel part has a launch MSRP of $134, while the AMD part has no recorded launch MSRP. The Intel part was released on 2025-01-12, while the AMD part has a release date of 2026-02-28.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE is built on the Gorgon Point codename with a generation designation of Ryzen AI 400 (Zen 5 / Zen 5c). It uses a 4 nm process node fabricated by TSMC. The Intel Core 3 201E uses the Bartlett Lake codename with a generation designation of Core 3 (Bartlett Lake). It uses a 10 nm process node fabricated by Intel.

Cache hierarchies differ in per-core allocation and total L3. The AMD part has 80 KB of L1 per core and 1 MB of L2 per core, with 8 MB of L3. The Intel part also has 80 KB of L1 per core but has 1.25 MB of L2 per core, with 12 MB of shared L3. The larger L3 cache on the Intel part may benefit workloads with high data reuse, while the AMD part's larger core count provides more parallel execution resources.

The AMD part's 4 nm process from TSMC represents a smaller geometry compared to Intel's 10 nm process. This suggests the AMD design may have different power and thermal characteristics, though no direct measurements are available in the database to confirm. The AMD part also carries a lower TDP of 35 W versus the Intel's 60 W, indicating a different power envelope design.

Where Each One Wins

Based on the available data, the Intel Core 3 201E has a recorded benchmark presence and a percentile ranking of 73, with an average score of 19056. Its higher base clock of 3.60 GHz suggests a potential advantage in lightly threaded tasks that rely on clock speed, given that both parts boost to 4.80 GHz. The larger 12 MB L3 cache could benefit workloads with significant data reuse patterns. The support for both DDR4 and DDR5 memory allows the Intel part to fit into existing platforms with either memory type.

The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE offers 6 cores and 12 threads, providing more parallel execution capacity than the Intel's 4 cores and 8 threads. Its memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s exceeds the Intel part's 76.8 GB/s, which may favor memory-intensive workloads. The lower TDP of 35 W suggests a design oriented toward lower power draw. The 4 nm process node indicates a more advanced fabrication technology.

The database does not contain direct benchmark scores for the AMD part, so a definitive win allocation cannot be made. The Intel part's recorded scores show it performs at the 73rd percentile with a 0% delta from the AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS and a 0.1% delta from the Intel Core i5-12400F. For the AMD part, the percentile stands at 50 with no average score recorded. The recorded data supports the Intel part as the only unit with verified performance metrics, while the AMD part's capabilities remain unmeasured in this database.
