Architecture Differences

Both processors share the same fundamental architecture. They are built on the Bartlett Lake codename and use a 10 nm process node from Intel. Both have 8 cores and 16 threads, and both feature identical cache hierarchies: 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 2 MB of L2 cache per core, and 24 MB of shared L3 cache. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier.

The two processors differ in clock speeds. The Intel Core 5 213PTE runs at a base clock of 2.10 GHz and a boost clock of 5.20 GHz. The Intel Core 5 223PTE runs at a base clock of 2.30 GHz and a boost clock of 5.40 GHz. This makes the 223PTE the higher-clocked part of the pair.

The integrated graphics differ between the two. The 213PTE carries UHD Graphics 730, while the 223PTE carries UHD Graphics 770. Both processors support ECC memory and are produced for the desktop market segment.

The part numbers differ as well: SA4QM for the 213PTE and SA4QL for the 223PTE. Both processors were released on the same date and are currently marked as Active in production status.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains a full benchmark suite for the Intel Core 5 213PTE, but the Intel Core 5 223PTE has no recorded benchmark scores. The head-to-head benchmark comparison is therefore one-sided. The 213PTE has a percentile rank of 83 against all CPUs, while the 223PTE has a percentile rank of 50. The 213PTE also has an average benchmark score of 32924, whereas the 223PTE has an average score of 0 due to the missing data.

The 213PTE's nearest rivals provide context for its performance. It sits within 0.5% of the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, which has an average score of 33079. The 213PTE trails that part by 0.5%. Against the AMD Ryzen 7 8700G, also at 33079, the 213PTE trails by 0.5%. Against the Intel Core i7-12700, with an average score of 32942, the 213PTE trails by 0.1%. Against the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H, with an average score of 32812, the 213PTE leads by 0.3%.

The 213PTE's Cinebench results show a multi-core score of 21751 in Cinebench R23 and a single-core score of 3070 in the same test. In Cinebench R20, it scores 9135 multi-core and 1289 single-core. In Cinebench R15, it scores 2192 multi-core and 309 single-core.

PassMark results for the 213PTE include a multi-thread score of 25590 and a single-thread score of 3718. Its integer math score is 93109, floating point math is 71722, and extended instructions score is 16146. Data compression scores 261083, data encryption scores 14413, and random string sorting scores 30106. The physics score is 2199, and find prime numbers scores 157.

Since the 223PTE has no benchmark entries, the measured data cannot confirm whether its higher clocks translate into better performance. The absence of data leaves the comparison incomplete. The 213PTE's recorded results place it firmly in the upper tier of CPUs, with its nearest rivals all within a fraction of a percent.

Specification Differences

The two processors differ in several specification fields. Base clock: 2.10 GHz for the 213PTE, 2.30 GHz for the 223PTE. Boost clock: 5.20 GHz for the 213PTE, 5.40 GHz for the 223PTE. Memory bandwidth: 76.8 GB/s for the 213PTE, 89.6 GB/s for the 223PTE. Integrated graphics: UHD Graphics 730 for the 213PTE, UHD Graphics 770 for the 223PTE.

The launch MSRP differs: $221 for the 213PTE and $232 for the 223PTE. The part numbers differ: SA4QM for the 213PTE and SA4QL for the 223PTE.

The percentile rank against all CPUs differs substantially: 83 for the 213PTE versus 50 for the 223PTE. The average benchmark score also differs: 32924 for the 213PTE versus 0 for the 223PTE. The nearest rivals data is populated for the 213PTE but empty for the 223PTE.

The shared specifications are extensive. Both have 8 cores, 16 threads, a TDP of 45, the Intel Socket 1700, the Bartlett Lake codename, a 10 nm process node, and identical L1, L2, and L3 cache sizes. Both support DDR4 and DDR5 memory with a dual-channel bus. Both support ECC memory. Both provide PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU. Neither has an unlocked multiplier. Both are listed as Desktop market segment, Active production status, and were released on the same date.

The Verdict

The data presents a straightforward situation. The Intel Core 5 213PTE has a full set of measured benchmark results, a high percentile rank of 83, and an average benchmark score of 32924. The Intel Core 5 223PTE has no benchmark results, a percentile rank of 50, and an average benchmark score of 0.

The 223PTE does have higher clock speeds, with a 0.20 GHz advantage in base clock and a 0.20 GHz advantage in boost clock. It also has higher memory bandwidth at 89.6 GB/s versus 76.8 GB/s, and a newer integrated graphics unit, UHD Graphics 770 versus UHD Graphics 730. These are real specification advantages.

However, the recorded data only measures the 213PTE. The 213PTE's performance is well characterized. It sits within 0.5% of the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D and the AMD Ryzen 7 8700G, within 0.1% of the Intel Core i7-12700, and ahead of the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H by 0.3%. This places the 213PTE in a competitive position against strong desktop and mobile processors.

The 223PTE's higher clocks and memory bandwidth suggest it should outperform the 213PTE, but the database contains no measurements to confirm this. The percentile rank of 50 versus 83 is a notable discrepancy, though it may reflect the missing data rather than actual performance. The verdict from the data alone: the 213PTE is the only one of the two with verified performance, and it performs at a level comparable to the top rivals in its class. The 223PTE offers superior specifications on paper, but its measured results are absent.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core 5 213PTE wins in every measured category because it is the only one with benchmark data. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 21751 and single-core score of 3070 demonstrate strong all-around performance. Its PassMark multi-thread score of 25590 and single-thread score of 3718 reinforce this. The 213PTE also wins in the comparison against its nearest rivals, leading the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H by 0.3% and trailing the others by margins of 0.1% to 0.5%.

The Intel Core 5 223PTE wins on specification fields. It has a higher base clock of 2.30 GHz versus 2.10 GHz. It has a higher boost clock of 5.40 GHz versus 5.20 GHz. It has higher memory bandwidth at 89.6 GB/s versus 76.8 GB/s. It has the newer UHD Graphics 770 versus UHD Graphics 730. These specification advantages point toward higher potential performance, especially in memory-sensitive workloads and in tasks that use the integrated graphics.

For use-case selection, the data supports the 213PTE for any workload where measured performance matters. Its verified scores in Cinebench and PassMark cover multi-threaded rendering, single-threaded responsiveness, encryption, compression, and math-heavy tasks. The 223PTE would be the choice only if the specification advantages in clocks, memory bandwidth, and integrated graphics are the deciding factors, since no measured results exist to contradict those advantages.
