AMD Ryzen Embedded 8840U vs Intel Core 5 213PE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The Intel Core 5 213PE is the only processor in this comparison with recorded benchmark scores. The database contains no synthetic test results for the AMD Ryzen Embedded 8840U, so a direct numerical comparison across individual workloads is not possible. However, the Intel part’s recorded data can be analyzed on its own terms, and its position relative to other CPUs in the database provides context for where it stands.

The Intel Core 5 213PE delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 22468 and a single-core score of 3172. In PassMark testing, the processor records a multi-thread score of 26434 and a single-thread score of 4060. The multi-core Cinebench result is roughly 7 times the single-core result, which aligns with a 16-thread part maintaining strong scaling under full load. The single-thread PassMark score of 4060 indicates solid per-core performance for a desktop-oriented chip.

In more specialized PassMark workloads, the Core 5 213PE shows clear strengths. The integer math score of 92089 and floating-point math score of 68587 demonstrate robust arithmetic throughput. Data compression reaches 298804 points, while data encryption records 15916. The extended instructions test scores 19565, and random string sorting completes at 32027. Physics simulation produces 1624 points, and find prime numbers yields 114.

The average benchmark score for the Intel part is 35428, placing it at the 85th percentile of all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals in the recorded data are all Intel parts: the Core i7-13700T with an average score of 35403, the Core i7-12700KF at 35365, the Core i5-13600T at 35305, and the Core i7-12700K at 35287. The Core 5 213PE leads each of these by margins between 0.1% and 0.4%. These are narrow differences, indicating the Core 5 213PE sits in a tightly packed performance tier.

The absence of benchmark data for the Ryzen Embedded 8840U means the head-to-head comparison cannot be quantified. The AMD part has an average benchmark score of 0 and a percentile rank of 50 in the database, which reflects missing measurements rather than actual performance characteristics. No wins are recorded for either processor in the head-to-head table, as no shared tests exist.

The Verdict

From the recorded data alone, the Intel Core 5 213PE is the only option with measurable performance. Its 85th percentile ranking and average score of 35428 establish it as a capable desktop processor. The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8840U, by contrast, has no benchmark results in the database, so its performance relative to the Intel part cannot be assessed from measurements.

The data shows that the Intel Core 5 213PE outperforms its nearest recorded rivals by slight margins. It sits 0.1% ahead of the Core i7-13700T, 0.2% ahead of the Core i7-12700KF, 0.3% ahead of the Core i5-13600T, and 0.4% ahead of the Core i7-12700K. These deltas are small enough that real-world differences would be negligible in most applications. The Core 5 213PE is positioned at the top of this particular group but not by a decisive margin.

For the AMD part, the lack of data means no verdict can be rendered from benchmarks. The Ryzen Embedded 8840U is an active product with a known architecture and specifications, but its measured performance is not present in the database. Any comparative conclusion between these two processors would require the missing AMD benchmark scores.

Where Each One Wins

Based strictly on recorded data, the Intel Core 5 213PE wins every category where measurements exist. It shows particular strength in multi-threaded workloads, evidenced by the Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 22468 and PassMark multi-thread score of 26434. The data compression result of 298804 is the highest single workload score recorded for this processor, indicating efficient handling of memory-intensive parallel tasks.

The single-thread performance of the Core 5 213PE is also solid. The Cinebench R23 single-core score of 3172 and PassMark single-thread score of 4060 suggest strong per-core capability, which benefits lightly threaded applications. The floating-point and integer math scores of 68587 and 92089 respectively indicate balanced general-purpose computation.

The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8840U has no recorded benchmark wins because no benchmark data exists for it. Its specifications suggest it targets a different segment: mobile, with a 28-watt TDP, versus the Intel part’s 65-watt desktop design. But without measured scores, the database cannot confirm any performance advantage for the AMD processor in any workload.

The AMD part has a higher base clock, while the Intel part has a slightly higher boost clock. However, the Intel processor consumes more power, with a TDP of 65 watts versus 28 watts for the AMD part.

Memory support diverges as well. The AMD chip supports only DDR5 in a dual-channel configuration with a theoretical bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel chip supports both DDR4 and DDR5 in dual-channel mode, with a bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s. Both support ECC memory.

The integrated graphics differ. The AMD processor uses a Radeon 780M, while the Intel processor uses UHD Graphics 730. The AMD part is a mobile processor on AMD Socket FP8, while the Intel part is a desktop processor on Intel Socket 1700. The AMD chip belongs to the 8000 series with a release date of April 2024, while the Intel Core 5 213PE has a release date of March 2026 and a launch MSRP of $221.

Both processors are currently active in production, and neither has an unlocked multiplier. The Intel part has a known part number of SA4QG, while the AMD part’s part number is unknown. The AMD processor uses PCIe Gen 4 with 20 lanes, while the Intel processor uses PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes, giving the AMD chip more total lanes but the Intel chip a faster generation.
