Analysis: Intel Arc G3 vs Intel Core 7 150U

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no recorded benchmark scores for the Intel Arc G3. Its average benchmark score is recorded as 0, and its percentile rank sits at 50 among all tracked CPUs. The Intel Core 7 150U, by contrast, has a full suite of 19 recorded benchmark results and an average benchmark score of 17395, placing it in the 71st percentile of all CPUs.

Because the Arc G3 has no benchmark entries, there are no head-to-head comparisons available. The winsA and winsB fields both record zero, and the headToHeadBenchmarks array is empty. The data indicates that the Core 7 150U is the only one of the two with measurable performance data in this database.

The Core 7 150U's recorded scores show a consistent pattern across rendering and synthetic workloads. In Cinebench R23, it scores 8883 in multi-core and 1875.5 in single-core. In Cinebench R20, the scores are 5248 multi-core and 740 single-core. The older Cinebench R15 test shows 1505.5 multi-core and 254 single-core. Geekbench results record 6234 multi-core and 1857 single-core.

PassMark results for the Core 7 150U cover a range of specialized workloads. The multi-thread score is 14700, and the single-thread score is 3508. Integer math reaches 51057, floating-point math reaches 34405, and extended instructions score 8748. Data compression records 158622, data encryption records 10025, and random string sorting records 18269. The physics test scores 1012, and the find prime numbers test scores 58.

The nearest rivals for the Core 7 150U show how tightly clustered its average score is. AMD Ryzen 5 4500 has an average score of 17333, which is 0.4% lower. AMD Ryzen 3 210 also averages 17333, also 0.4% lower. AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE averages 17482, which is 0.5% higher. AMD Ryzen 5 4600G averages 17507, which is 0.6% higher. The Core 7 150U sits almost exactly in the middle of this group, within a band of roughly one percent on either side.

The Arc G3 cannot be compared on any of these metrics because no scores are recorded. The absence of data is itself a relevant finding: the database has no evidence of the Arc G3's performance in any workload, while the Core 7 150U has measurable results across rendering, general computation, and cryptography-adjacent workloads.

The Verdict

The verdict from the recorded data is straightforward. The Intel Core 7 150U is the only processor in this comparison with any benchmark evidence, and its results place it in the 71st percentile of all CPUs. The Intel Arc G3 has no recorded benchmarks, an average score of zero, and a 50th percentile rank, which in this database means it has not been measured rather than that it performs at the median.

The Core 7 150U's average benchmark score of 17395 puts it in direct competition with a narrow cluster of AMD processors. It trails the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE by 0.5% and the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G by 0.6%. It leads the AMD Ryzen 5 4500 and AMD Ryzen 3 210 by 0.4% each. These deltas are within the normal variance of repeated testing, which places the Core 7 150U in a performance tier where the four closest rivals are separated by barely more than one percentage point.

For the Arc G3, the lack of data means no performance verdict can be issued. The database records no scores for it, and no nearest rivals are listed. Its 50th percentile rank is the default value assigned when no measurements exist, not a measured position.

The data supports only one selection: the Core 7 150U has recorded, verifiable performance, and the Arc G3 does not. Any decision between these two processors must rely on the Core 7 150U's documented results, because the Arc G3 has nothing recorded to analyze.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core 7 150U wins every category where data exists. In multi-core rendering, its Cinebench R23 score of 8883 and Cinebench R20 score of 5248 indicate solid sustained throughput for threaded workloads. In single-core rendering, its Cinebench R23 score of 1875.5 and Cinebench R20 score of 740 show strong per-thread performance. Geekbench results confirm the pattern with 6234 multi-core and 1857 single-core.

In PassMark workloads, the Core 7 150U shows specific strengths. Integer math at 51057 and floating-point math at 34405 indicate arithmetic-heavy tasks run well. Data compression at 158622 is the highest single recorded score for this processor, suggesting compression and decompression workloads benefit disproportionately. Data encryption at 10025 and extended instructions at 8748 provide additional coverage for security and vectorized code paths.

The Intel Arc G3 has no recorded wins. The winsA field is zero, and there are no benchmark scores to attribute. The database holds no evidence for the Arc G3 in any workload category. Its integrated graphics are listed as Arc B370, but no graphics benchmarks are recorded. Its memory bandwidth is listed as 136.5 GB/s, but no memory tests are recorded. Its boost clock is listed as 4.60 GHz, but no clock-sensitive benchmarks are recorded.

The Core 7 150U's wins are therefore absolute by default: it wins every category because it is the only processor with data. The Arc G3's specifications exist in the database, but its performance does not.

Architecture Differences

The two processors differ substantially in their underlying design. The Intel Arc G3 uses the Panther Lake codename and is built on a 3 nm process node at Intel's foundry. The Intel Core 7 150U uses the Raptor Lake architecture with the Raptor Lake-U codename and is built on a 10 nm process node, also at Intel.

Core and thread counts diverge. The Arc G3 has 14 cores and 14 threads. The Core 7 150U has 10 cores and 12 threads. The Arc G3's core-to-thread ratio of 1:1 indicates no hyperthreading, while the Core 7 150U's ratio of 10:12 indicates two of its cores support additional threads.

Clock speeds favor the Core 7 150U in boost frequency. The Arc G3 has a base clock of 1.90 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. The Core 7 150U has a base clock of 1.80 GHz and a boost clock of 5.40 GHz. The Core 7 150U boosts 0.80 GHz higher, while the Arc G3 has a 0.10 GHz higher base clock.

Thermal design power differs by 10 watts. The Arc G3 is rated at 25 W TDP, while the Core 7 150U is rated at 15 W TDP. The Arc G3 has a higher power envelope, which is consistent with its larger core count.

Cache hierarchies are configured differently. The Arc G3 has 192 KB of L1 cache per core, 2.5 MB of L2 cache per core, and 18 MB of shared L3 cache. The Core 7 150U has 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 1.25 MB of L2 cache per core, and 12 MB of shared L3 cache. The Arc G3 has larger per-core caches and 6 MB more L3 cache.

Memory support diverges. The Arc G3 supports LPDDR5X memory with a recorded bandwidth of 136.5 GB/s. The Core 7 150U supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory, with no bandwidth figure recorded. Both use dual-channel memory buses.

PCI Express connectivity differs in generation and lane count. The Arc G3 uses PCIe Gen 5 with 4 lanes available to the CPU. The Core 7 150U uses PCIe Gen 4 with 8 lanes available to the CPU. The Arc G3 has a newer PCIe generation but fewer lanes.

Integrated graphics also differ. The Arc G3 includes Arc B370 graphics. The Core 7 150U includes Iris Xe Graphics 96EU. Neither processor has a recorded graphics benchmark in the database.

Socket and package details separate the two platforms. The Arc G3 uses Intel BGA 2540, while the Core 7 150U uses Intel BGA 1744. These sockets are not interchangeable. Release dates differ as well: the Core 7 150U was released on January 7, 2024, while the Arc G3 was released on May 27, 2026. Both processors are listed as active in production, and neither has a launch MSRP recorded.

Neither processor is multiplier unlocked, and neither supports ECC memory. The part numbers are SA4QZ for the Arc G3 and SRMYP for the Core 7 150U. The market segment for both is mobile.
