AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE vs Intel Core 3 201E Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark data shows a decisive overall victory for the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE, which wins 13 of the 17 recorded head-to-head comparisons. The Intel Core 3 201E claims 4 wins, but these are concentrated in specific workloads where its architecture holds an advantage.

The most dramatic gap appears in PassMark integer math, where the AMD delivers 84,004 against 43,894 for the Intel, a 91.4% advantage. This is the largest delta in the entire test suite. Data encryption also heavily favors AMD, with 16,937 versus 8,931, a 89.6% difference. Both results align with the core count disparity: 8 cores and 16 threads for AMD versus 4 cores and 8 threads for Intel.

Cinebench results consistently show AMD ahead by 40.8% across all six tests. The R23 multicore score of 17,759 versus 12,613 places the Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE firmly ahead in rendering workloads. Single-core Cinebench R23 also favors AMD at 2,507 versus 1,780, which is notable given that the Intel chip has a higher boost clock of 4.80 GHz compared to 4.60 GHz. The AMD's per-core efficiency in Cinebench appears to compensate for the clock disadvantage.

PassMark floating point math shows AMD at 46,589 versus 33,260, a 40.1% lead. Data compression delivers 252,937 versus 164,160, a 54.1% edge. Extended instructions favor AMD at 17,029 versus 11,035, a 54.3% margin. Multithread performance sits at 20,870 versus 14,839, a 40.6% lead. Random string sorting rounds out the AMD wins with 27,373 versus 17,783, a 53.9% difference.

The Intel Core 3 201E takes PassMark physics with 1,141 versus 841, a 26.3% advantage. It also leads in PassMark single-thread performance, scoring 3,482 versus 3,353, a 3.7% margin. Prime number finding favors Intel at 57 versus 50, a 12.3% lead. These three wins point to strengths in specific integer-heavy or physics-based workloads that do not scale with core count.

The overall average benchmark score confirms the hierarchy: AMD sits at 29,656 with an 81st percentile ranking across all CPUs, while Intel lands at 19,056 with a 73rd percentile. The AMD's nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen 5 9600X, scores 29,713, just 0.2% higher, meaning the 5755GE effectively trades blows with that chip. The Intel Core 3 201E sits within 0.4% of the Intel Core i5-12400F, its closest comparable.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from fundamentally different design schools. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE uses Zen 3 architecture with the Cezanne codename, built on a 7 nm process at TSMC. It packs 10,700 million transistors into a 180 mm² die. The Intel Core 3 201E uses the Bartlett Lake codename on Intel's 10 nm process, with a 163 mm² die size and no transistor count listed in the database.

Core allocation differs sharply. AMD provides 8 cores and 16 threads, while Intel provides 4 cores and 8 threads. Cache layouts reflect distinct philosophies. AMD uses 64 KB L1 per core, 512 KB L2 per core, and a 16 MB L3 pool. Intel uses a larger 80 KB L1 per core, a much larger 1.25 MB L2 per core, and 12 MB of shared L3. The larger per-core L2 on Intel helps its single-thread and physics results, while AMD's extra cores drive its multicore dominance.

Memory support is a major split. AMD supports DDR4 only, with dual-channel access and 51.2 GB/s of bandwidth. Intel supports both DDR4 and DDR5, also dual-channel, but with a higher 76.8 GB/s bandwidth ceiling. The Intel chip also supports ECC memory, while the AMD part does not.

PCIe connectivity differs by two generations. AMD offers Gen 3 with 16 CPU lanes, while Intel offers Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes. Integrated graphics also differ: AMD uses Radeon Vega 8, Intel uses UHD Graphics 730. Both are desktop parts, both are locked (multiplier unlocked: false), and both remain in active production.

Thermal design power shows a significant contrast. AMD is rated at 35 W TDP, while Intel is rated at 60 W. The AMD chip achieves higher multicore scores despite the lower power envelope, which indicates strong efficiency from the 7 nm process. The Intel part's higher TDP and smaller core count explain its weaker multithreaded output.

Release dates differ by roughly four months. AMD launched on September 4, 2024, and Intel launched on January 12, 2025. Both use different sockets: AMD on Socket AM4, Intel on Socket 1700. The Intel part carries a launch MSRP of $134.

The Verdict

The data supports a clear split based on workload type. For heavily threaded tasks, rendering, encryption, compression, or integer math, the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE is the stronger processor. Its 40.8% Cinebench lead and 91.4% integer math advantage are definitive. The 35 W TDP makes the result more impressive, as it delivers this performance at nearly half the thermal envelope of the Intel part.

For workloads that favor high single-thread speed, physics simulation, or prime number calculations, the Intel Core 3 201E holds the edge. Its 3.7% single-thread PassMark lead and 26.3% physics advantage show that its per-core strength is real. The larger L2 cache and higher boost clock contribute to these wins.

The AMD chip's 81st percentile ranking versus Intel's 73rd percentile tells the broader story. The average benchmark score of 29,656 versus 19,056 represents a 55.6% gap in overall capability. The Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE belongs in systems where multithreaded throughput matters most. The Core 3 201E suits lighter workloads where single-thread responsiveness and ECC memory support take priority. Neither chip is unlocked, so overclocking headroom is not a factor in either direction.
