AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 vs Intel Core 5 211TE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark data presents a decisive matchup. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 wins all 15 recorded head-to-head tests against the Intel Core 5 211TE, with no tests going the other way. The margins range from modest single-digit percentage leads to more than double the performance in several workloads.

The largest advantage appears in PassMark's single-thread test, where the AMD part scores 3872 against Intel's 1408, a 175% delta. That is more than 2.7 times the raw score. The same 175% delta appears for the duplicate passmark_singlethread entry, confirming the consistency of the result. In Cinebench R15 single-core, the AMD chip posts 247 versus 173, a 42.8% lead. Cinebench R23 single-core shows a narrower gap: 1954 versus 1722, a 13.5% advantage. The data indicates the Zen 5-based AMD processor has a substantial per-thread performance edge over the Bartlett Lake Intel part.

Multi-threaded workloads tell a similar story, though the magnitude varies by test. In Cinebench R15 multicore, the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 scores 2336.5 against 1229, a 90.1% delta. Cinebench R23 multicore narrows that to 14278.5 versus 12201, a 17% lead. The PassMark integer math test shows the biggest multi-thread gap: 84868 versus 33991, a 149.7% delta. Floating point math follows with 51639 versus 26150, a 97.5% delta. Data compression shows 281834 versus 133434, a 111.2% delta. Data encryption doubles the Intel result: 14462 versus 7231, a 100% delta. Extended instructions reach 19955 versus 8615, a 131.6% delta. Random string sorting lands at 31071 versus 14838, a 109.4% delta. The PassMark multithread score shows 23994 versus 11685, a 105.3% delta.

Two tests produce closer results. PassMark physics shows 1318 versus 1278, a 3.1% delta, the smallest margin in the entire set. Prime number finding yields 81 versus 72, a 12.5% delta. These two workloads are less favorable to the AMD part, though it still wins both.

The average benchmark score reinforces the overall picture. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 records an average score of 35719, placing it in the 85th percentile of all CPUs in the database. The Intel Core 5 211TE averages 15370, which puts it in the 69th percentile. The nearest rivals for the AMD part include the Intel Core 7 250H at 35728 (0% delta), the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H at 35670 (0.1% delta), the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5845 at 35802 (-0.2% delta), and the AMD Ryzen 7 7700X at 35909 (-0.5% delta). The Intel Core 5 211TE sits near the AMD EPYC 7543 at 15477 (-0.7% delta), the AMD EPYC 7702P at 15130 (1.6% delta), the AMD Ryzen 3 7440U at 15682 (-2% delta), and the Intel Core i3-1315U at 15022 (2.3% delta). The delta values for the Intel part's rivals are all within 2.3%, indicating the Core 5 211TE performs in a completely different performance tier than the Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350.

The Verdict

The data supports a clear choice for most workloads. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 outperforms the Intel Core 5 211TE in every recorded benchmark category. The smallest margin is 3.1% in PassMark physics, and the largest is 175% in single-thread tests. Across the 15 head-to-head tests, the average delta is substantial, with many tests showing leads of 90% or more.

The AMD processor sits in the 85th percentile of all CPUs, while the Intel part sits in the 69th percentile. The nearest rival cluster for the AMD chip includes desktop-class parts like the AMD Ryzen 7 7700X and the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H, all within 0.5% of its average score. The Intel Core 5 211TE, by contrast, competes with laptop-oriented chips like the AMD Ryzen 3 7440U and the Intel Core i3-1315U. The gap in average benchmark score is roughly 2.3 times in favor of AMD.

The launch MSRP for the Intel Core 5 211TE is $221, which was recorded in the database. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 has no launch MSRP listed. For users prioritizing raw compute performance across rendering, encryption, compression, and general math workloads, the recorded data points exclusively to the AMD part. The Intel chip's 45W TDP and desktop socket might suit specific system requirements, but the benchmark results show no performance category where the Intel part wins.

Specification Differences

The two processors differ in several core specifications. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 has 8 cores and 16 threads, while the Intel Core 5 211TE has 10 cores and 16 threads. The AMD base clock is 2.00 GHz with a boost clock of 5.00 GHz. The Intel base clock is 1.70 GHz with a boost clock of 4.80 GHz. The AMD part has a TDP of 28W, while the Intel part has a TDP of 45W.

The sockets differ completely. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 uses AMD Socket FP8, while the Intel Core 5 211TE uses Intel Socket 1700. The AMD processor is a mobile part, while the Intel processor is a desktop part. The AMD chip uses a 4 nm process node from TSMC, while the Intel chip uses a 10 nm process node from Intel. The AMD die size is 195 mm², and the Intel die size is 215 mm².

Cache configurations differ. Both have 80 KB L1 per core. The AMD L2 cache is 1 MB per core, while the Intel L2 cache is 1.25 MB per core. The AMD L3 cache is 8 MB, while the Intel L3 cache is 20 MB shared.

Memory support differs. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X with a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel Core 5 211TE supports DDR4 and DDR5 with a memory bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s. Both have dual-channel memory buses and support ECC memory.

PCIe specifications differ. The AMD part uses Gen 4 with 16 lanes (CPU only), while the Intel part uses Gen 5 with 16 lanes (CPU only). The integrated graphics differ as well: the AMD chip has Radeon 860M, while the Intel chip has UHD Graphics 730. The AMD processor has a part number of 100-000000713, and the Intel processor has a part number of SRQDL.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 is built on the Zen 5 architecture with the Krackan Point codename, part of the Ryzen AI PRO 300 generation that combines Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. The Intel Core 5 211TE uses the Bartlett Lake codename from the Core 5 generation. The AMD part has a production status of Active and was released on January 5, 2025. The Intel part also has a production status of Active and was released on January 12, 2025.

The process technology differs significantly. AMD uses a 4 nm process from TSMC, while Intel uses a 10 nm process from its own foundry. The AMD processor uses a smaller die at 195 mm² compared to Intel's 215 mm². The AMD chip integrates the Radeon 860M graphics, while the Intel chip integrates UHD Graphics 730. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier, so overclocking is not supported on either part.

The cache hierarchy reflects different design philosophies. AMD uses a per-core L2 of 1 MB, while Intel uses a per-core L2 of 1.25 MB. The L3 cache shows the largest difference: AMD provides 8 MB, while Intel provides 20 MB shared. Despite the larger Intel L3 and higher core count, the benchmark results show the AMD architecture delivers substantially higher performance in the recorded tests. The AMD part's memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s exceeds the Intel part's 76.8 GB/s, which likely contributes to the large deltas in memory-sensitive workloads like data compression and encryption.

The integrated graphics also differ in capability, with the AMD Radeon 860M representing a newer generation than the Intel UHD Graphics 730. The PCIe generation also differs, with Intel offering Gen 5 versus AMD's Gen 4, though both provide 16 lanes from the CPU. The 4 nm AMD process versus the 10 nm Intel process represents a two-generation process node advantage for AMD, which helps explain the performance-per-watt characteristics visible in the 28W versus 45W TDP ratings.
