Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 is built on the Zen 5 architecture with the codename Strix Point, belonging to the Ryzen AI 300 generation that combines Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. It uses a 4 nm TSMC process with a die size of 233 mm². The cache hierarchy consists of 80 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of shared L3. The processor supports both DDR5 and LPDDR5X memory through a dual-channel interface, delivering 89.6 GB/s of bandwidth. It uses the AMD Socket FP8 and has a TDP of 28 W.

The Intel Arc G3 uses the Panther Lake codename and belongs to the Arc G3 generation. It is manufactured on Intel's 3 nm process, though the die size is not recorded. The cache configuration differs significantly: 192 KB of L1 per core, 2.5 MB of L2 per core, and 18 MB of shared L3. This gives the Intel part larger per-core caches at every level. Memory support is limited to LPDDR5X, but the dual-channel interface delivers a substantially higher 136.5 GB/s of bandwidth. The Intel part uses the BGA 2540 socket and has a TDP of 25 W.

The AMD processor uses PCIe Gen 4 with 16 lanes, while the Intel processor uses PCIe Gen 5 with only 4 lanes. The AMD part has a higher boost clock at 5.00 GHz versus 4.60 GHz, but the Intel part has more physical cores. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier, and both lack ECC memory support. The AMD part has a release date of June 2024, while the Intel part is dated May 2026. The AMD part number is 100-000001530, and the Intel part number is SA4QZ.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark comparisons between the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 and the Intel Arc G3. The Intel Arc G3 has no recorded benchmark scores in any test category, and its average benchmark score is listed as 0. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365, in contrast, has a full suite of recorded scores across Cinebench, Geekbench, and PassMark tests.

The AMD processor achieves a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 18698 and a single-core score of 1992. In Cinebench R15, it scores 2842 multicore and 303 single-core. Geekbench results show 13760 multicore and 2253 single-core. PassMark tests show 29467 for multithread, 3841 for single-thread, 101831 for integer math, 62802 for floating point math, 25113 for extended instructions, 354510 for data compression, 18297 for data encryption, 39447 for random string sorting, 1704 for physics, and 117 for find prime numbers.

Since the Intel Arc G3 has no recorded benchmarks, the data cannot show comparative performance figures. The AMD part holds a percentile rank of 87 among all CPUs, while the Intel part sits at percentile 50 with no average score. The AMD part's average benchmark score is 40048, and its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 7 7700 with an average score of 40081 and a delta of -0.1%, the Intel Core 5 221E at 40144 with a delta of -0.2%, the AMD Ryzen 9 270 at 40246 with a delta of -0.5%, and the Intel Core i9-13905H at 40313 with a delta of -0.7%. These small negative deltas indicate the Ryzen AI 9 365 trails each rival by less than one percent in average score.

The Verdict

The available data presents an incomplete comparison. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 has extensive benchmark coverage and a verified performance profile, while the Intel Arc G3 has no recorded benchmark results. Any direct performance conclusion between the two is impossible from the database.

For workloads where benchmark data exists, the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 demonstrates strong multicore throughput with 20 threads and a 5.00 GHz boost clock. Its 87th percentile ranking places it above most CPUs in the database. The Intel Arc G3, despite having 14 physical cores and a newer 3 nm process, cannot be evaluated for performance without recorded scores.

The Intel part does offer architectural advantages in specific areas: larger per-core L1 and L2 caches, more shared L3 cache, significantly higher memory bandwidth, and PCIe Gen 5 support. The AMD part counters with higher clocks, multithreading, and a smaller process node from TSMC. The TDP difference is minimal at 28 W versus 25 W.

Users requiring verified performance data should rely on the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365, as it is the only one of the two with recorded measurements. The Intel Arc G3 remains an unquantified option in the database, with its capabilities limited to architectural specifications.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 wins in every recorded benchmark category because the Intel Arc G3 has no benchmark scores in the database. The AMD part shows particular strength in integer math with a score of 101831 and data compression at 354510. Its multithread score of 29467 and Cinebench R23 multicore score of 18698 confirm solid parallel performance for a 28 W mobile processor. Single-thread performance is also respectable, with Geekbench single-core at 2253 and Cinebench R23 single-core at 1992.

The Intel Arc G3 wins on paper in architectural specifications. Its 14 physical cores exceed the AMD part's 10 cores, though without multithreading the thread count is lower at 14 versus 20. The larger cache hierarchy, with 192 KB L1 and 2.5 MB L2 per core, plus 18 MB shared L3, suggests advantages in workloads with repeated data access patterns. Memory bandwidth of 136.5 GB/s is over 50% higher than the AMD part's 89.6 GB/s, which could benefit memory-intensive tasks. PCIe Gen 5 support offers more modern connectivity, though with fewer lanes.

The process node difference favors the Intel part at 3 nm versus 4 nm, though the foundry differs with Intel manufacturing its own chip while TSMC manufactures the AMD part. The Intel Arc G3 also has a lower TDP at 25 W versus 28 W, indicating slightly better power efficiency on paper.

For practical selection, the database supports the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 for any workload requiring verified performance. The Intel Arc G3's specifications suggest potential in memory-bandwidth-sensitive applications and cache-heavy workloads, but no measured data confirms this. The AMD part's higher boost clock of 5.00 GHz and multithreading capability make it the safer choice for general-purpose mobile computing based on recorded results.
