AMD Ryzen 5 150 vs Intel Arc G3 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark entries for the AMD Ryzen 5 150 versus the Intel Arc G3. The AMD Ryzen 5 150 has a full set of PassMark workload scores, while the Intel Arc G3 has no recorded benchmark results at all. This means a direct score-by-score comparison cannot be produced from the recorded data. The AMD part shows an average benchmark score of 34,881 across its eleven workload entries, with a percentile rank of 84 among all CPUs. The Intel Arc G3 holds a 50th percentile placement but carries an average score of zero, indicating the database has not yet captured any completed tests for it.

The AMD Ryzen 5 150 delivers its strongest relative performance in multi-threaded workloads. Its PassMark multithread score of 17,492, combined with an integer math result of 62,151 and a floating point math score of 35,118, places it in the 84th percentile overall. The nearest rivals in the database are the Intel Xeon 6349P at 34,890 average score, the Intel Core 7 253PTE at 34,962, the Intel Core i7-13800H at 34,988, and the Intel Core i9-12900HX at 35,003. The AMD part trails these by only 0.2 to 0.3 percent, which is a marginal gap. The data shows the Ryzen 5 150 sits within a narrow band of competing mobile and embedded processors, despite having six cores and twelve threads versus the fourteen cores and fourteen threads listed for the Arc G3.

The single-thread picture is more limited. The AMD Ryzen 5 150 records a PassMark single-thread score of 3,155, with an extended instructions score of 14,675 and a data encryption score of 13,425. These results suggest decent per-core capability, but without any Arc G3 benchmark values, the database cannot confirm whether the Panther Lake part would outperform, match, or fall behind in any specific test. The absence of head-to-head entries and the empty benchmark array for the Intel part are the only factual observations available. The wins counters show zero for both sides, which accurately reflects the lack of comparable data.

Architecture Differences

The two processors diverge sharply at the architectural level. The AMD Ryzen 5 150 uses a Zen 3+ core design under the Rembrandt-R codename, fabricated on a 6 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Arc G3 uses the Panther Lake codename and a 3 nm process at Intel's own foundry. The AMD chip has six physical cores and twelve threads, while the Intel chip has fourteen physical cores and fourteen threads, meaning the Intel part offers no simultaneous multithreading. The AMD part's base clock is 3.30 GHz with a boost clock of 4.55 GHz. The Intel part starts at a lower 1.90 GHz base but boosts to 4.60 GHz, a slightly higher ceiling.

Cache configurations also differ. The AMD Ryzen 5 150 provides 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel Arc G3 provides 192 KB of L1 per core, 2.5 MB of L2 per core, and 18 MB of shared L3. The Intel part has a larger L3 pool by 2 MB and substantially more L2 per core, though the per-core L1 figure is also higher. The AMD part has a die size of 210 mm²; the database lists no die size for the Intel chip. Neither part has a 3D V-Cache variant listed.

Memory support separates them as well. The AMD Ryzen 5 150 supports DDR5 memory over a dual-channel bus with a recorded bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s. The Intel Arc G3 supports LPDDR5X memory, also dual-channel, but with a recorded bandwidth of 136.5 GB/s, which is 59.7 GB/s higher. The PCIe interface differs: the AMD part uses Gen 4 with 20 lanes (CPU only), while the Intel part uses Gen 5 with only 4 lanes (CPU only). The Intel part has fewer lanes but a newer generation. Neither processor supports ECC memory. Both are listed as mobile market segments with active production status. The AMD part uses the AMD Socket FP7, while the Intel part uses Intel BGA 2540. The integrated graphics differ as well: the AMD Ryzen 5 150 includes a Radeon 660M, and the Intel Arc G3 includes an Arc B370.

The TDP values are notable. The AMD Ryzen 5 150 has a thermal design power of 35 watts, while the Intel Arc G3 is rated at 25 watts, a 10-watt lower figure. The AMD part's multiplier is locked, and the Intel part's multiplier is also locked, so neither offers user-accessible overclocking through a free multiplier. The release dates place the AMD chip at September 30, 2025, and the Intel chip at May 27, 2026, roughly eight months later. The part numbers are recorded as 100-000000990(FP7r2) for AMD and SA4QZ for Intel.

The Verdict

The recorded data presents an incomplete comparison. The AMD Ryzen 5 150 has a complete benchmark profile and a clear percentile placement. The Intel Arc G3 has no benchmark scores, no average score, and no rival comparisons. From the data available, the AMD part is the only one whose performance can be quantified. Its 84th percentile standing among all CPUs, with an average score of 34,881, indicates it competes closely with the Intel Xeon 6349P, Core 7 253PTE, Core i7-13800H, and Core i9-12900HX, all within 0.3 percent.

The Intel Arc G3's 50th percentile rank is the only performance-related data point the database holds. That rank would normally suggest mid-pack positioning, but with a zero average score, it likely reflects an absence of tested results rather than a measured outcome. The architecture differences do not resolve this gap. The Intel part has more cores, a smaller process node, higher boost clock, larger caches, faster memory bandwidth, and lower TDP. Those specifications suggest potential advantages, but the database contains no benchmark evidence to confirm them.

For any user relying strictly on measured performance, the AMD Ryzen 5 150 is the only part with verifiable results. The Intel Arc G3 cannot be assessed for workload performance from the current data. The database shows the AMD part is a solid mid-tier performer in its segment, based on its percentile and rival deltas. The Intel part remains an unquantified entry. The data implies that a buyer seeking immediate, measurable performance would favor the AMD part, while the Intel part's appeal rests on unverified architectural traits.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen 5 150 wins in every category where the database holds measured results, because it is the only part with any benchmark data. Its multithread score of 17,492, integer math score of 62,151, floating point math score of 35,118, and single-thread score of 3,155 all stand as recorded performance figures. The AMD part also wins on availability of data itself: its complete PassMark profile allows for percentile placement and rival comparisons, which the Intel part lacks entirely.

The Intel Arc G3 shows potential advantages in several specification areas, though none are backed by benchmark scores. It has 8 more cores, a 2 nm smaller process node, a higher boost clock by 0.05 GHz, 2 MB more L3 cache, and 59.7 GB/s more memory bandwidth. Its TDP is 10 watts lower, which could indicate better efficiency per watt if the specifications translate to real workloads. The Intel part also uses PCIe Gen 5, while the AMD part uses Gen 4, and it has a newer release date by about eight months.

For use cases, the data suggests the AMD Ryzen 5 150 is the safer choice for any workload requiring verified performance, such as multithreaded productivity tasks, integer-heavy operations, or general mobile computing. The Intel Arc G3's specifications point toward potential strengths in memory-bandwidth-sensitive tasks or scenarios where lower power draw matters, but the database cannot confirm these outcomes. The integrated graphics differ as well, with the AMD Radeon 660M versus the Intel Arc B370, but no graphics benchmarks exist for either part.
