Intel Core 3 201E vs Intel Processor 300 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains a complete benchmark suite for the Intel Core 3 201E, while the Intel Processor 300 has no benchmark entries. This makes a direct head-to-head comparison impossible for individual tests. However, the available data for the Core 3 201E can be interpreted against its nearest rivals to establish performance context.

The Core 3 201E delivers a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 12613 and a single-core score of 1780. In Cinebench R20, it reaches 5297 multicore and 747 single-core. The older Cinebench R15 test shows 1271 multicore and 179 single-core. These results indicate a processor with strong multi-threaded throughput relative to its single-thread performance.

PassMark results further characterize the Core 3 201E. The multithread score is 14839, while single-thread scores appear twice in the database as 3482 (both as "passmark_single_thread" and "passmark_singlethread"). Integer math scores 43894, floating point math scores 33260, and extended instructions score 11035. Data compression reaches 164160, random string sorting reaches 17783, and data encryption reaches 8931. The physics score is 1141, and the find prime numbers score is 57.

The average benchmark score for the Core 3 201E is 19056. This places it in the 73rd percentile among all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals, based on average score, are the AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS at 19047 (a 0% delta), the Intel Core i5-12400F at 19039 (0.1% ahead), the Intel Core i5-1335U at 18982 (0.4% ahead), and the AMD EPYC 7773X at 18979 (0.4% ahead). These deltas are negligible, indicating the Core 3 201E sits in a tightly packed performance cluster where a single percentage point separates it from several well-known alternatives.

The Intel Processor 300 has no benchmark scores recorded, an average benchmark score of 0, and no nearest rivals. Its percentile rank is 50, which is the midpoint, but this figure derives from the absence of measurement data rather than from observed performance. The database cannot confirm any performance relationship between these two processors through direct testing.

Architecture Differences

The Core 3 201E uses the Bartlett Lake codename and belongs to the Core 3 generation. The Intel Processor 300 uses the Raptor Lake-S codename and belongs to the Intel Processor generation, with an architecture explicitly listed as Raptor Lake.

The Core 3 201E has a boost clock of 4.80 GHz, but the Intel Processor 300 has no boost clock listed in the database.

Thermal design power differs by 14 watts, with the Core 3 201E rated at 60 W and the Intel Processor 300 at 46 W. Cache configurations also differ. Both processors use 80 KB of L1 cache per core and 1.25 MB of L2 cache per core. The L3 cache, however, is 12 MB shared on the Core 3 201E versus 6 MB shared on the Intel Processor 300. The die size is identical at 163 mm² for both.

Memory support is the same in type: both support DDR4 and DDR5, both use a dual-channel memory bus, and both use PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes (CPU only). The Core 3 201E has a listed memory bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s, while the Intel Processor 300 has no memory bandwidth figure recorded. ECC memory support differs: the Core 3 201E supports ECC memory, while the Intel Processor 300 does not.

Integrated graphics differ by model. The Core 3 201E includes UHD Graphics 730, while the Intel Processor 300 includes UHD Graphics 710. Both processors have locked multipliers, meaning neither supports unlocked overclocking. The part numbers are SRVTR for the Core 3 201E and SRN3J for the Intel Processor 300.

Release dates differ by roughly one year. The Intel Processor 300 was released on 2024-01-07, while the Core 3 201E was released on 2025-01-12. Both are classified as Desktop market segment and both have Active production status.

The Verdict

The database contains complete benchmark measurements for the Intel Core 3 201E and no benchmark measurements for the Intel Processor 300. This asymmetry prevents a direct performance verdict based on head-to-head testing. What the data does show is that the Core 3 201E achieves an average benchmark score of 19056, placing it in the 73rd percentile of all CPUs, with its nearest rivals all within 0.4% of its average score.

The Intel Processor 300 has no recorded scores, an average score of 0, and a 50th percentile ranking that must be interpreted as a placeholder rather than a measured outcome. Any conclusion about the performance relationship between these two processors cannot be drawn from benchmark results, because no such results exist for one side of the comparison.

What can be stated from the recorded specifications is that the Core 3 201E offers double the cores and threads, double the L3 cache, a higher boost clock, ECC memory support, and a higher TDP. The Intel Processor 300 offers a higher base clock, lower TDP, an earlier release date, and a lower launch MSRP of $82 versus $134 for the Core 3 201E.

The Core 3 201E is positioned for workloads that benefit from additional threads and cache capacity, with ECC support indicating a use case in reliability-sensitive environments. The Intel Processor 300 is positioned as a lower-power, lower-cost option with a higher base clock for lightly threaded tasks. The data does not indicate which processor delivers better performance in any specific workload, because no comparative measurements exist. Buyers choosing between these two must rely on the specification differences above, as the benchmark database cannot arbitrate the performance gap.
