Intel Core 7 150UL vs Intel Core Ultra 5 336H Comparison

Intel Core 7 150UL and Intel Core Ultra 5 336H are two active Intel processors from different market segments. The Core 7 150UL is a desktop part based on Raptor Lake, while the Core Ultra 5 336H is a mobile processor built on Panther Lake. The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results for these two CPUs, but the Core Ultra 5 336H has a full set of recorded scores, while the Core 7 150UL has no benchmark entries. This analysis relies on the available recorded data for the Core Ultra 5 336H and the architectural specifications for both parts.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database does not contain any head-to-head benchmark results pairing the Intel Core 7 150UL against the Intel Core Ultra 5 336H. The wins counter shows zero for both processors. Because the Core 7 150UL has no benchmark scores recorded, no direct numerical comparison can be made for any workload. All performance data in this section refers exclusively to the Core Ultra 5 336H, which has a complete benchmark suite.

The Core Ultra 5 336H delivers strong multi-threaded results in the Cinebench suite. It scores 2418 in Cinebench R15 multi-core, 10076 in Cinebench R20 multi-core, and 23991 in Cinebench R23 multi-core. In single-core tests, it records 341 in Cinebench R15, 1422 in R20, and 3387 in R23. The gap between multi-core and single-core scores reflects the processor's 16 cores and 16 threads, which scale well in threaded rendering workloads.

PassMark results for the Core Ultra 5 336H show a broad spread across task types. The processor scores 28545 in PassMark multithread and 4013 in PassMark single-thread. In math-oriented tasks, it records 62070 in integer math and 82415 in floating point math. Data compression yields 280340, while data encryption produces 21291. Extended instructions score 24542, and find prime numbers records 299. Random string sorting completes with 34402, and the physics test scores 2682.

The average benchmark score for the Core Ultra 5 336H is 34485. This places it at the 84th percentile among all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals, based on average score, are the Intel Core i7-13700HX at 34554 (0.2% lower), the Intel Core i5-13450HX at 34333 (0.4% higher), the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X at 34260 (0.7% higher), and the AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 at 34222 (0.8% higher). The Core Ultra 5 336H sits within 0.8% of all four rivals, indicating performance parity at the aggregate level rather than a dominant lead or deficit.

Where Each One Wins

With no benchmark data recorded for the Core 7 150UL, the database cannot attribute a single workload win to that processor. The Core Ultra 5 336H holds all recorded wins by default, as it is the only one of the two with measurements.

For the Core Ultra 5 336H, the data shows clear strength in multi-threaded and content-creation tasks. Cinebench R23 multi-core at 23991 and Cinebench R20 multi-core at 10076 indicate sustained capability in rendering workloads. PassMark multithread at 28545 reinforces this interpretation. The processor also performs well in integer and floating point math, with scores of 62070 and 82415 respectively, suggesting suitability for scientific and engineering computations.

Single-thread performance is comparatively moderate. The Cinebench R23 single-core score of 3387 and PassMark single-thread score of 4013 are respectable but do not stand out relative to the multi-thread scores. The PassMark data compression score of 280340 is the highest single recorded value in the suite, while the find prime numbers score of 299 is the lowest, indicating that the processor's efficiency varies significantly by instruction type.

The Core 7 150UL, despite lacking benchmarks, has a percentile vs all CPUs of 50, which places it at the midpoint of the database distribution. This percentile is based on aggregate data, but with an average benchmark score of 0, there is no measured performance to analyze. The Core Ultra 5 336H, at the 84th percentile, sits well above that midpoint.

Architecture Differences

The Core 7 150UL uses the Raptor Lake architecture with the Raptor Lake-PS codename, built on a 10 nm process node at Intel. The Core Ultra 5 336H uses the Panther Lake architecture with the Panther Lake codename, built on a 3 nm process node, also at Intel. The process node difference is substantial: 10 nm versus 3 nm, which typically indicates a significant generational leap in transistor density and power efficiency.

Core and thread counts differ. The Core 7 150UL has 10 cores and 12 threads, while the Core Ultra 5 336H has 16 cores and 16 threads. The Core 7 150UL does not use simultaneous multithreading across all cores, as evidenced by the 10-core, 12-thread configuration. The Core Ultra 5 336H has equal core and thread counts at 16 each.

Cache hierarchies are larger on the Core Ultra 5 336H. The Core 7 150UL has 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 1.25 MB of L2 per core, and 12 MB of shared L3 cache. The Core Ultra 5 336H has 192 KB of L1 per core, 2.5 MB of L2 per core, and 18 MB of shared L3 cache. Every level of cache is larger on the Core Ultra 5 336H.

Clock speeds move in opposite directions. The Core 7 150UL has a base clock of 1.70 GHz and a boost clock of 5.00 GHz. The Core Ultra 5 336H has a higher base clock of 1.90 GHz but a lower boost clock of 4.60 GHz. The Core 7 150UL therefore has the higher maximum clock, while the Core Ultra 5 336H starts at a higher baseline frequency.

Thermal design power differs by 10 watts. The Core 7 150UL is rated at 15 W TDP, while the Core Ultra 5 336H is rated at 25 W TDP. The lower TDP of the Core 7 150UL aligns with its desktop segment designation, although 15 W is modest for a desktop processor.

Memory support diverges. The Core 7 150UL supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory, while the Core Ultra 5 336H supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X. The Core Ultra 5 336H has a recorded memory bandwidth of 115.2 GB/s; no bandwidth figure is recorded for the Core 7 150UL. Both use dual-channel memory buses. Neither processor supports ECC memory.

PCIe connectivity differs by generation and lane count. The Core 7 150UL uses PCIe Gen 4 with 8 CPU lanes, while the Core Ultra 5 336H uses PCIe Gen 5 with 12 CPU lanes. The Core Ultra 5 336H offers a newer PCIe generation and more lanes.

Integrated graphics also differ. The Core 7 150UL includes Iris Xe Graphics with 96 execution units. The Core Ultra 5 336H includes Intel Xe3 Graphics, with no execution unit count recorded. The socket types are incompatible: the Core 7 150UL uses Intel Socket 1700, while the Core Ultra 5 336H uses Intel BGA 2540.

Release timing and market positioning are distinct. The Core 7 150UL is a desktop part released on 2024-04-07, belonging to the Core 7 (Raptor Lake-PS) generation. The Core Ultra 5 336H is a mobile part from the Ultra 5 (Panther Lake-H) generation, released on 2026-01-04, and belongs to the Core Ultra Series 3. The Core Ultra 5 336H has a recorded part number of SA4RD, while the Core 7 150UL's part number is listed as unknown. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier.

The Verdict

The data supports a clear choice for users prioritizing measured performance: the Intel Core Ultra 5 336H. It has 16 cores versus 10, a larger cache at all levels, a newer 3 nm process node, a higher base clock, faster memory bandwidth, and PCIe Gen 5 support. Its recorded benchmark scores place it at the 84th percentile among all CPUs, with an average score of 34485, within 0.8% of four established rivals. The Core 7 150UL has no recorded benchmarks and an average score of 0, which means no measured performance can be verified for it.

The Core 7 150UL is not without advantages. It has a higher boost clock of 5.00 GHz versus 4.60 GHz, a lower 15 W TDP, and support for DDR4 memory in addition to DDR5. These features may appeal to systems requiring legacy memory compatibility or minimal power draw. Its 50th percentile standing, however, is based on aggregate classification rather than direct measurement.

For desktop use with a preference for older memory types or a specific Socket 1700 platform, the Core 7 150UL is the only option of the two, as the Core Ultra 5 336H uses a BGA 2540 mobile socket. For any task where performance matters, the Core Ultra 5 336H is the stronger choice based on the recorded data. The 84th percentile ranking and the complete benchmark suite provide concrete evidence of its capability, while the Core 7 150UL offers no measured scores to counter it.
