AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 vs Intel Processor U303L Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data for the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 and the Intel Processor U303L shows a stark contrast in available benchmark coverage. The AMD processor has a comprehensive set of PassMark results, while the Intel Processor U303L has no benchmark scores recorded in the database, resulting in an average benchmark score of zero. This absence of measured data for the Intel part means every head-to-head comparison relies on the AMD side of the ledger.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 delivers a multithread score of 25,889, a figure that places it in the 91st percentile of all CPUs in the database. Its single-thread score of 4,029 appears twice in the data, confirming consistency across two separate recorded runs or entries. The floating-point math score reaches 55,799, while integer math posts 87,940, indicating strong arithmetic throughput relative to its class. Data compression work completes at a score of 327,891, which stands as the highest single recorded output for this processor across all listed tests. Data encryption produces a score of 16,055, and extended instruction workloads score 24,193. Prime number finding yields 71, physics simulations score 1,210, and random string sorting posts 34,801.

The nearest rival data for the AMD part provides useful context. The AMD Ryzen 5 9500F holds an average score of 52,873, which is 0.1 percent below the P164. The Intel Xeon 634 averages 52,974, a 0.1 percent advantage over the P164. The AMD EPYC 7313P reaches 53,206, 0.6 percent ahead, and the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X posts 53,288, 0.7 percent ahead. These deltas are remarkably tight; the P164 sits within a narrow band of less than one percent of four established desktop and server processors. The P164's average benchmark score of 52,901 sits almost exactly between the Ryzen 5 9500F and the Xeon 634, making its overall standing nearly indistinguishable from those two parts in aggregate performance.

The Intel Processor U303L, by contrast, has no rivals listed and no benchmark scores. Its percentile ranking of 50 places it at the midpoint of the database, but the absence of measured performance data means this percentile cannot be verified against actual scores in the current record. The comparison is therefore asymmetric: one processor has full measured data, the other has none.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 wins every category where data exists. Its 8 cores and 16 threads give it a structural advantage in parallel workloads, and the multithread score of 25,889 reflects that capability. The 5.00 GHz boost clock supports demanding single-thread tasks, and the single-thread score of 4,029 confirms strong per-core performance. The 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth supports data-heavy operations, and the 8 MB L3 cache works alongside per-core L1 and L2 allocations of 80 KB and 1 MB respectively.

The AMD part also supports error-correcting code memory, which matters for data integrity in long-running compute tasks. Its Radeon 880M integrated graphics add GPU capability without a discrete card, and the 16 PCIe Gen 4 lanes provide more expansion headroom than the Intel part's 8 lanes. The 28 watt TDP is higher than the Intel's 15 watt figure, but the performance envelope of the AMD processor is substantially larger across every measured test.

The Intel Processor U303L has no recorded wins because it has no recorded scores. What the data does show is its configuration: 5 cores and 6 threads, a 1.20 GHz base clock, and a 2.60 GHz boost clock. These figures indicate a lower-power design, and the 15 watt TDP confirms that positioning. The 12 MB shared L3 cache is larger than the AMD's 8 MB, which could benefit certain cache-sensitive workloads, but no benchmark data exists to confirm such an advantage. The UHD Graphics 96EU integrated GPU is present, but again, no measured performance validates its output. The Intel part supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, which offers platform flexibility, and its dual-channel memory bus matches the AMD design. The 10 nm process node from Intel stands in contrast to AMD's 4 nm TSMC node, but process size alone does not determine performance without measured results.

In the absence of Intel benchmark data, the use-case split is one-sided. The AMD P164 is the only part with demonstrated performance, so it claims all workload categories by default of having any numbers at all.

The Verdict

The recorded data indicates that the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 is the only processor of the two with measured performance. Its average benchmark score of 52,901 places it at the 91st percentile of all CPUs, and its nearest rivals, including the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X and AMD EPYC 7313P, sit within 0.7 percent of its average. This means the P164 performs at a level nearly equivalent to those high-end parts, despite being classified as a mobile embedded processor.

The Intel Processor U303L cannot be placed on the same performance scale because no scores exist in the database. Its 50th percentile ranking appears in the record, but without measured benchmarks, this figure cannot be cross-checked against actual results. The processor's specifications suggest a modest, low-power part: 5 cores, 6 threads, a 2.60 GHz boost clock, and 15 watts TDP. For workloads that require the demonstrated throughput of the AMD part, the choice is clear from the data. For workloads that prioritize lower power consumption and a smaller core count, the Intel part has the right specifications on paper, but its actual performance remains unmeasured in this database.

The P164's nearest rival deltas are informative for positioning. A 0.1 percent gap to the Ryzen 5 9500F and the Xeon 634 means the P164 is effectively tied with those parts in aggregate score. The 0.6 percent and 0.7 percent gaps to the EPYC 7313P and Ryzen 9 7900X respectively are also negligible in practical terms. Any of these four rivals could trade places with the P164 on a different day of testing. The AMD part's 91st percentile ranking is therefore a stable, high-tier placement.
