AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132 vs Intel Core 3 100UL Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains a full benchmark profile for the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132, while the Intel Core 3 100UL has no recorded benchmark scores in the current dataset. This makes a direct per-test comparison impossible, but the AMD part’s individual results can be measured against its nearest rivals in the database, which provides useful context for where it stands.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132 posts a PassMark single-thread score of 3713. Its multithread score is 19262. In integer math, the chip reaches 62249, and in floating-point math it scores 42248. Data compression results show 230437, while data encryption lands at 11444. Extended instructions score 16520, random string sorting hits 25181, and the find prime numbers test produces 57. The physics test records 1022.

Because the Intel Core 3 100UL lacks any benchmark entries, the database cannot show a head-to-head win for either processor in specific tests. The AMD part’s average benchmark score of 37804 places it at the 86th percentile among all CPUs in the database. The Intel part sits at the 50th percentile with no average score recorded. The AMD chip’s nearest rivals are all within a fraction of a percent of its average score: the Intel Core 5 211E averages 37829 (0.1% higher), the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 435 averages 37762 (0.1% lower), the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 averages 37904 (0.3% higher), and the Intel Core i9-14901E averages 37911 (0.3% higher). These tight deltas indicate the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132 performs essentially on par with a spread of competitors across both AMD and Intel product lines.

The lack of Intel Core 3 100UL benchmark data means any performance comparison must rely on the architectural and specification differences recorded in the database, rather than measured results. The AMD part’s percentile ranking of 86 versus the Intel part’s 50 suggests a substantial performance tier separation, but without Intel test scores, this remains an indirect indicator.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different foundries and process nodes. AMD uses TSMC’s 4 nm process for the Ryzen AI Embedded P132, while Intel fabricates the Core 3 100UL on its 10 nm node. The AMD chip’s codename is Gorgon Point, and its generation is listed as Ryzen AI Embedded (Zen 5 / Zen 5c). The Intel chip uses the Raptor Lake architecture with the codename Raptor Lake-PS and the generation label Core 3 (Raptor Lake-PS).

Both processors have 6 cores, but thread counts differ. The AMD part supports 12 threads via simultaneous multithreading, while the Intel part has 8 threads. Base clock speeds diverge significantly: AMD runs at 2.00 GHz, Intel at 1.20 GHz. Both boost to 4.50 GHz, so the gap in base clocks is substantial.

Cache layouts differ. Both have 80 KB of L1 per core. The AMD part uses 1 MB of L2 per core, while Intel uses 1.25 MB per core. L3 cache is a major difference: the AMD chip has 4 MB, while the Intel chip has 10 MB shared. This gives Intel a larger last-level cache, which can benefit workloads with large working sets.

Memory support also diverges. AMD supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X, while Intel supports DDR4 and DDR5. Both use dual-channel memory buses. The AMD part records a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s; the Intel part has no bandwidth figure in the database. AMD includes ECC memory support, while Intel does not.

PCIe configuration differs as well. The AMD chip provides Gen 4 with 14 lanes (CPU only), while the Intel chip provides Gen 4 with 8 lanes (CPU only). Integrated graphics are different: AMD uses the Radeon 840M, while Intel uses UHD Graphics 64EU.

The AMD part is classified as a mobile market segment product and uses AMD Socket FP8. The Intel part is classified as a desktop segment product and uses Intel Socket 1700. The Intel chip’s TDP is 15 watts, while the AMD chip’s TDP is 28 watts. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier.

Release dates differ by roughly two years: the Intel Core 3 100UL entered production with an active status as of April 2024, while the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132 is listed as active with a release date of March 2026.

Where Each One Wins

Based on recorded data, the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132 wins in core count efficiency for threaded workloads, since it offers 12 threads versus the Intel part’s 8. The AMD part also wins on process node, using 4 nm versus 10 nm, which typically indicates better transistor density and power characteristics per operation.

The AMD part wins on base clock speed, running at 2.00 GHz versus 1.20 GHz, though both reach the same 4.50 GHz boost. The AMD part supports LPDDR5X memory in addition to DDR5, which the Intel part does not. The AMD part includes ECC memory support, a feature absent from the Intel chip. The AMD part offers more PCIe lanes: 14 versus 8, both Gen 4.

The Intel Core 3 100UL wins on power envelope, with a 15 W TDP versus 28 W for the AMD part. This lower TDP makes the Intel chip suited for thermally constrained designs where sustained low power draw matters more than peak performance.

The Intel part wins on L3 cache capacity, offering 10 MB shared versus 4 MB on the AMD chip. The Intel part also has slightly more L2 cache per core: 1.25 MB versus 1 MB. The Intel part supports DDR4 memory in addition to DDR5, which can matter for platforms with existing DDR4 infrastructure.

The Intel part wins on market segment flexibility for desktop integration, since it uses Intel Socket 1700, a widely deployed desktop socket. The AMD part targets mobile designs with Socket FP8.

The benchmark data favors the AMD part in overall standing, with an 86th percentile rank versus the Intel part’s 50th percentile. The AMD part’s average score of 37804 is meaningful in the database, while the Intel part has no recorded average score, so a direct numeric comparison cannot be made.
