Intel Core 5 211TE vs Intel Core 5 223PTE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The Intel Core 5 211TE holds a decisive advantage in the database's recorded benchmark results, though the comparison is limited by the fact that the Intel Core 5 223PTE currently has no benchmark entries. The 211TE delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 12201, a Cinebench R20 multi-core score of 5124, and a Cinebench R15 multi-core score of 1229. Its single-core results are equally robust, with Cinebench R23 single-core at 1722, Cinebench R20 single-core at 723, and Cinebench R15 single-core at 173.

PassMark results for the 211TE further illustrate its capabilities. The processor scores 11685 in PassMark multithread, 1408 in PassMark single-thread, 33991 in integer math, 26150 in floating point math, 133434 in data compression, 7231 in data encryption, 8615 in extended instructions, 72 in find prime numbers, 1278 in physics, and 14838 in random string sorting. With an average benchmark score of 15370, the 211TE sits at the 69th percentile among all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals include the AMD EPYC 7543 with an average score of 15477 and a delta of -0.7%, the AMD EPYC 7702P at 15130 with a delta of 1.6%, the AMD Ryzen 3 7440U at 15682 with a delta of -2%, and the Intel Core i3-1315U at 15022 with a delta of 2.3%.

The 223PTE, by contrast, has no recorded benchmarks, no average score, and no rival comparisons in the database. Its percentile rank of 50 is a placeholder, not a measured result. The data therefore shows that the 211TE is the only part in this pairing with validated performance data, and it performs competitively against established server and mobile processors, trailing the Ryzen 3 7440U by 2% and the EPYC 7543 by 0.7% in average score while leading the EPYC 7702P by 1.6% and the Core i3-1315U by 2.3%.

Architecture Differences

Both processors share the Bartlett Lake codename and the Core 5 generation designation, and both are built on Intel's 10 nm process node with Intel as the foundry. They also share the Intel Socket 1700 platform, dual-channel memory support, and ECC memory capability. Each supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory, and both offer PCIe Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes. Neither has an unlocked multiplier, and both are classified as desktop parts with a production status of Active.

The core configurations diverge significantly. The 211TE uses 10 cores and 16 threads, while the 223PTE uses 8 cores and 16 threads. Both maintain the same L1 cache at 80 KB per core, but the L2 cache differs: the 211TE has 1.25 MB per core, whereas the 223PTE has 2 MB per core. The L3 cache also differs, with the 211TE carrying 20 MB shared and the 223PTE carrying 24 MB shared. The die size for the 211TE is 215 mm², while the 223PTE has no recorded die size.

Clock speeds show a notable split. The 211TE has a base clock of 1.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz. The 223PTE has a higher base clock of 2.30 GHz and a higher boost clock of 5.40 GHz. Despite this clock advantage for the 223PTE, the 211TE's additional cores give it a structural edge in multi-threaded workloads, assuming the 223PTE's performance scales similarly per core. The TDP for both is 45 watts, so the 223PTE achieves higher clocks within the same power envelope.

Integrated graphics also differ. The 211TE uses UHD Graphics 730, while the 223PTE uses UHD Graphics 770. Memory bandwidth is another differentiator: the 211TE records 76.8 GB/s, and the 223PTE records 89.6 GB/s. Release dates place the 211TE at 2025-01-12 and the 223PTE at 2026-03-08, and the part numbers are SRQDL for the 211TE and SA4QL for the 223PTE.

Where Each One Wins

The 211TE wins in every measured benchmark category because it is the only processor in this pairing with recorded data. Its multi-threaded performance is particularly strong, given the 10-core configuration and Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 12201. The PassMark multithread score of 11685 and the integer math score of 33991 reinforce this pattern. Single-threaded performance is also solid, with Cinebench R23 single-core at 1722 and PassMark single-thread at 1408. The 211TE's average benchmark score of 15370 places it at the 69th percentile, and its nearest rival deltas show it trading blows with server-class EPYC parts and a modern Ryzen mobile chip.

The 223PTE wins based on specifications alone, though no benchmark data confirms these advantages. Its higher base clock of 2.30 GHz and boost clock of 5.40 GHz suggest superior per-core speed, and the larger L2 cache at 2 MB per core plus the larger L3 cache at 24 MB shared could improve cache-sensitive workloads. The higher memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s and the newer UHD Graphics 770 also give it a specification-level edge. However, the 223PTE's 8-core configuration means it will likely lose heavily in parallel workloads that scale with core count, such as rendering and scientific computing, where the 211TE's 10 cores provide a structural advantage.

The Verdict

The data strongly favors the Intel Core 5 211TE for any workload where benchmark results matter. It has a complete set of recorded scores, a 69th percentile ranking, and an average benchmark score of 15370 that places it within 2% of the AMD Ryzen 3 7440U and within 0.7% of the AMD EPYC 7543. The 211TE's 10 cores and 16 threads make it the clear choice for multi-threaded tasks, and its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 12201 confirms this capability.

The Intel Core 5 223PTE cannot be recommended based on performance data, as the database contains no benchmark entries for it. Its specification sheet is promising, with higher clocks, larger caches, and faster memory bandwidth, and the UHD Graphics 770 is a newer integrated graphics solution. The 8-core, 16-thread configuration still provides solid threading capability, and the higher boost clock of 5.40 GHz may deliver strong single-threaded performance once measured.

The decision rests on whether verified performance or theoretical specifications take priority. The 211TE offers proven results and a higher core count, making it the safer pick for production workloads and parallel processing. The 223PTE offers a more modern feature set on paper, including 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth and a 24 MB L3 cache, but until benchmark data is recorded, its actual performance remains unknown. For users who require immediate, validated performance, the 211TE is the only part with evidence in the database. For those willing to wait for the 223PTE's benchmarks to populate, its higher clocks and larger caches suggest potential, but no measured confirmation exists.
