AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 vs Intel Core 5 213PE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows a clean sweep for the Intel Core 5 213PE across all eleven shared PassMark tests. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 does not register a single win in the head-to-head comparison. The most significant margin appears in floating point math, where the Intel part scores 68587 against the AMD's 42934, a difference of 37.4 percent. This is the largest delta recorded in the dataset.

Integer math tells a similar story. The Intel Core 5 213PE posts 92089 versus 65991 for the Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440, a 28.3 percent advantage. Prime number generation favors Intel by 32.5 percent, with scores of 114 and 77 respectively. The physics test shows Intel ahead by 31.1 percent, scoring 1624 against 1119. These are substantial margins in compute-heavy workloads, suggesting a decisive advantage in raw processing throughput.

Single-thread performance is closer but still favors Intel. The Core 5 213PE scores 4060 in the single-thread test, while the Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 scores 3785. That is a 6.8 percent gap. Extended instructions show a narrower margin of 5.7 percent, with 19565 for Intel and 18456 for AMD. Data compression favors Intel by 14.2 percent, with scores of 298804 and 256420. Random string sorting shows a 14.9 percent gap, Intel scoring 32027 against 27252.

Data encryption shows Intel ahead by 22 percent, scoring 15916 versus 12418. Multithread performance favors Intel by 20.4 percent, with 26434 against 21054. In every measured category, the Intel Core 5 213PE delivers a higher score. The smallest advantage is in single-thread performance at 6.8 percent, the largest in floating point math at 37.4 percent. The overall average benchmark score for the Intel part is 35428, while the AMD part averages 41208. This is an unusual situation: the AMD chip has a higher average score across its own benchmark set, yet loses every head-to-head test. The discrepancy stems from differing benchmark suites in the database. The AMD listing includes no Cinebench entries, while the Intel listing includes three Cinebench tests. When comparing only the shared PassMark tests, Intel wins all of them.

The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 sits at the 87th percentile among all CPUs in the database. The Intel Core 5 213PE sits at the 85th percentile. Despite the lower percentile, the Intel part wins every direct comparison. The nearest rivals for the AMD chip include the Intel Core Ultra 7 356H with an average score of 41215, a delta of 0 percent, and the AMD Ryzen 9 5900X at 41376, a 0.4 percent gap. The nearest rivals for the Intel chip include the Intel Core i7-13700T at 35403, a 0.1 percent delta, and the Intel Core i7-12700KF at 35365, a 0.2 percent gap.

The Verdict

The data points to a clear conclusion for direct workload comparisons. The Intel Core 5 213PE is the faster processor in every shared benchmark category. The margins range from modest in single-thread work to very large in floating point math and prime number generation. For any application that depends on integer math, encryption, compression, or physics calculations, the Intel part delivers higher throughput. The multithread advantage of 20.4 percent reinforces this pattern. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 does not win a single head-to-head test in this dataset.

However, the AMD chip occupies a different market segment. It is a mobile processor with a 28 watt TDP, while the Intel part is a desktop processor with a 65 watt TDP. The database lists the AMD part as active and mobile, the Intel part as active and desktop. The AMD chip uses the AMD Socket FP8 and the Intel chip uses Intel Socket 1700. These are not interchangeable platforms. The choice between them depends on the intended system form factor. For a desktop build where power draw is less constrained, the Intel Core 5 213PE is the stronger performer in every measured test. For a mobile platform with a 28 watt envelope, the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 is the only option of the two. The Intel part also carries a launch MSRP of $221.

The AMD chip's average benchmark score of 41208 is higher than the Intel chip's 35428, but this reflects the different test sets recorded for each processor. The head-to-head PassMark tests all favor Intel. The percentile rankings place the AMD chip at 87 and the Intel chip at 85, but percentile rankings draw from the full CPU database and are not limited to shared tests. Direct comparisons are the more reliable indicator for relative performance, and those all favor Intel.

Architecture Differences

The two processors differ substantially in architecture, node, and platform. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 uses the Zen 5 architecture under the codename Gorgon Point, built on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core 5 213PE uses the Bartlett Lake codename, built on a 10 nm process at Intel. The manufacturing node difference is significant: the AMD part uses a smaller process, which typically enables lower power draw. The TDP figures confirm this: 28 watts for the AMD part, 65 watts for the Intel part.

Core counts also differ. The AMD chip has 6 cores and 12 threads. The Intel chip has 8 cores and 16 threads. Cache layout varies as well. Both parts have 80 KB of L1 cache per core and 1 MB of L2 per core for AMD, but Intel doubles the per-core L2 to 2 MB. The L3 cache differs more dramatically: the AMD part has 8 MB, while the Intel part has 24 MB shared. This larger cache likely contributes to the Intel part's advantage in data compression and encryption workloads.

Memory support differs. The AMD chip supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X with a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel chip supports DDR4 and DDR5 with a memory bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s. Both use dual-channel memory buses. Both support ECC memory. PCIe connectivity differs: the AMD part uses Gen 4 with 16 lanes, the Intel part uses Gen 5 with 16 lanes. The Intel part's newer PCIe generation offers higher bandwidth for expansion devices.

Integrated graphics differ as well. The AMD chip uses the Radeon 840M, while the Intel chip uses the UHD Graphics 730. The database does not include graphics benchmarks, so no performance comparison is possible from the recorded data. The AMD part has a die size of 195 mm², while the Intel part has no die size listed. The AMD part's release date is listed as January 2026, the Intel part as March 2026.

Clock speeds favor Intel. The AMD chip has a base clock of 2.00 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz. The Intel chip has a base clock of 2.70 GHz and a boost clock of 5.20 GHz. The Intel part's higher boost clock aligns with its single-thread advantage of 6.8 percent. The higher base clock and boost clock, combined with more cores, threads, and L3 cache, explain the Intel part's dominance in multithread tests. The AMD part's smaller process node and lower TDP indicate a design focused on efficiency for mobile use.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core 5 213PE wins every shared benchmark in the dataset. Its largest advantages are in floating point math, prime number generation, and physics. These strengths point toward compute-heavy desktop workloads such as scientific calculations, data processing, and rendering. The multithread advantage of 20.4 percent, combined with 8 cores and 16 threads, supports heavily threaded applications. The 24 MB L3 cache and faster boost clock of 5.20 GHz contribute to its wins in single-thread and cache-sensitive tasks. The Intel part's PCIe Gen 5 support also provides a platform advantage for high-bandwidth expansion.

The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 does not win any head-to-head test, but it holds advantages outside raw benchmark scores. Its TDP of 28 watts is less than half of the Intel part's 65 watts. The 4 nm process node indicates a more efficient design. It supports LPDDR5X memory and has a higher memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. Its mobile socket and market segment make it the appropriate choice for laptops and compact systems. The Radeon 840M integrated graphics may offer different capabilities than the UHD Graphics 730, though the database includes no graphics benchmarks to confirm. The AMD part also has a higher average benchmark score of 41208 across its recorded test set, though this includes different tests than the Intel part's set.

For a desktop system where power draw is not a primary constraint, the Intel Core 5 213PE is the better performer in every measured category. For a mobile or low-power system, the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 is the only viable option given its 28 watt envelope and FP8 socket. The data shows no scenario where the AMD part outperforms the Intel part in a shared test. The Intel part's wins are consistent across all eleven head-to-head benchmarks, with margins from 5.7 percent to 37.4 percent.
