Intel Core 5 211E vs Intel Processor U302L

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark entries for the Intel Core 5 211E and the Intel Processor U302L. The Intel Core 5 211E has a full set of recorded measurements, while the Intel Processor U302L has no benchmark scores listed in the database. This absence of comparable data means the analysis relies entirely on the recorded performance of the Core 5 211E and the architectural specifications of the U302L.

The Intel Core 5 211E delivers strong multi-threaded results. In Cinebench R23 multi-core, it scores 20,389 points. The single-core result for the same test is 2,878 points. In Cinebench R20, the multi-core score is 8,563 and the single-core score is 1,208. The older Cinebench R15 test shows a multi-core score of 2,055 and a single-core score of 289. These results place the chip in the 86th percentile among all CPUs in the database, with an average benchmark score of 37,829.

The closest rival in the database is the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132, which has an average score of 37,804, a delta of 0.1% from the Core 5 211E.

The Intel Processor U302L has no recorded benchmark scores, so its average benchmark score is listed as 0 and its percentile is 50. Without measurements, the database cannot produce a direct comparison of execution speed, rendering performance, or power efficiency between the two processors. The U302L cannot be ranked against the Core 5 211E in any head-to-head test because no test data exists for it.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core 5 211E wins in every measurable category because it is the only one of the two with recorded performance data. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 20,389 indicates strong all-core throughput for workloads that scale across threads. Its single-core R23 score of 2,878 shows competitive per-thread speed. The PassMark single-thread score of 4,006 reinforces that the chip handles lightly threaded tasks effectively.

The Core 5 211E also demonstrates capability in memory bandwidth, with a listed 76.8 GB/s. This bandwidth supports the dual-channel DDR4 and DDR5 memory support. The chip carries 20 MB of shared L3 cache and 2 MB of L2 cache per core, which helps in workloads that benefit from larger cache pools. The integrated UHD Graphics 730 provides display output without a discrete graphics card.

The Intel Processor U302L has no benchmark wins in the database. Its specifications suggest a different use case: a 15 W TDP, a base clock of 1.20 GHz, and a boost clock of 2.40 GHz. The Core 5 211E uses a 65 W TDP, a base clock of 2.70 GHz, and a boost clock of 4.90 GHz. The Core 5 211E also has double the cores (10 versus 5) and more than double the threads (16 versus 6). In any workload that uses multiple cores, the Core 5 211E has a structural advantage. For single-threaded tasks, the higher boost clock of the Core 5 211E gives it an advantage as well.

The Verdict

The database shows a clear split between these two processors. The Intel Core 5 211E is a desktop chip with 10 cores, 16 threads, a 4.90 GHz boost clock, and a 65 W TDP. It has recorded benchmark scores across Cinebench R15, R20, R23, and PassMark tests, and it sits in the 86th percentile of all CPUs. Its average benchmark score of 37,829 places it within 0.2% of the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 and the Intel Core i9-14901E, and slightly ahead of the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132 and the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 435.

The Intel Processor U302L has no recorded benchmark scores. Its specifications indicate a lower-power mobile part: 5 cores, 6 threads, a 2.40 GHz boost clock, and a 15 W TDP. It sits in the 50th percentile with an average benchmark score of 0 in the database. Without measurements, the U302L cannot be compared directly on performance.

The data indicates that the Core 5 211E is the stronger processor for multi-threaded workloads, with its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 20,389 and its PassMark multi-thread score of 23,833. Its single-thread results are also competitive, with a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 2,878 and a PassMark single-thread score of 4,006. The U302L, by contrast, offers a much lower TDP of 15 W, which suits power-sensitive mobile designs, but it lacks any recorded performance data to validate its capabilities.

The Core 5 211E also provides ECC memory support, PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes, and 20 MB of shared L3 cache. The U302L provides no ECC support, PCIe Gen 4 with 8 lanes, and 10 MB of shared L3 cache. For a system that needs ECC memory, PCIe Gen 5 bandwidth, or high multi-threaded throughput, the Core 5 211E is the only choice with supporting data. For a low-power mobile platform, the U302L has the lower TDP and the mobile market segment designation, but the database contains no benchmark evidence to show how it performs. The recorded data favors the Core 5 211E across every measurable dimension.
