The AMD processor is part of the Ryzen AI Max PRO (Zen 5) generation, and the Intel processor is part of the Core 3 (Bartlett Lake) generation.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 wins in every recorded benchmark category because the Intel Core 3 201TE has no benchmark entries in the database. The AMD part's recorded scores cover data compression, encryption, extended instructions, prime number finding, floating point math, integer math, multithread performance, physics, random string sorting, and single-thread performance.

The AMD processor also holds an advantage in memory bandwidth at 128.0 GB/s versus 76.8 GB/s for the Intel chip. That bandwidth gap can benefit memory-intensive workloads, though no head-to-head benchmark data is available in the database to directly confirm the impact.

The Intel Core 3 201TE holds advantages in some specification areas. It uses PCIe Gen 5 instead of Gen 4, which provides a newer interconnect standard. It also has a larger L2 cache allocation per core at 1.25 MB versus 1 MB. The Intel chip operates at a lower TDP of 45 watts compared to 55 watts for the AMD chip.

The Intel processor is the only one with a recorded launch MSRP of $134. The AMD processor has no launch MSRP in the database.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark entries comparing the AMD Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 and the Intel Core 3 201TE. The Intel Core 3 201TE has an empty benchmarks array, so no direct scores exist for that processor.

The AMD Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 has a full set of PassMark benchmark records. Its multithread score is 24,244, and its single-thread score is 3,995. The floating point math score is 53,084, and the integer math score is 79,789. The data compression score is 293,595, and the data encryption score is 14,502.

Extended instructions score is 24,333, and the prime number finding score is 75. Physics score is 1,120, and random string sorting score is 31,153.

The average benchmark score for the AMD chip is 48,171. Its closest rival in the database is the Intel Core Ultra 5 235A with an average score of 48,201, a delta of -0.1%. The Intel Core Ultra 5 245HX scores 48,287, a delta of -0.2%. The AMD Ryzen 9 3900 scores 47,918, a delta of 0.5%, and the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D scores 47,908, a delta of 0.5%.

These nearest rival comparisons show that the AMD Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 is essentially level with the surrounding processors in the database, within a range of -0.2% to +0.5%. The Intel Core 3 201TE has no nearest rivals recorded and no average benchmark score, so no comparable performance position can be established from the database.

The Verdict

The AMD Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 is the only one of the two processors with recorded benchmark data. Its average score of 48,171 places it at the 90th percentile of all CPUs, and its nearest rivals are all within a tenth of a percent to half a percent of its average score. The Intel Core 3 201TE sits at the 50th percentile with no recorded benchmark score.

Users choosing between these two should consider the specification gaps. The AMD chip offers more cores, more threads, higher base and boost clocks, more L3 cache, and more than 1.6 times the memory bandwidth of the Intel chip. The Intel chip offers a lower TDP, PCIe Gen 5 support, a larger per-core L2 cache, and a die size record of 163 mm².

The AMD part targets the mobile segment with LPDDR5X memory, while the Intel part targets the desktop segment with DDR4 and DDR5 support. The AMD chip uses a 4 nm TSMC process, and the Intel chip uses a 10 nm Intel process. The Intel part carries a launch MSRP of $134, while the AMD part has no recorded launch MSRP.

For workloads represented by the PassMark suite, the AMD Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 delivers the recorded results, and the Intel Core 3 201TE delivers none. The database shows a clear performance position for the AMD part and no measured position for the Intel part. A user needing a processor with existing benchmark data would select the AMD chip based on the recorded measurements. A user prioritizing the lower TDP, PCIe Gen 5 connectivity, or the desktop platform would consider the Intel chip based on those specifications alone.
