AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D vs Intel Core i5-110 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The data records a complete PassMark benchmark suite for the AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D, while the Intel Core i5-110 has no recorded benchmark scores in the database. This absence of data for the Intel part creates a one-sided comparison. The AMD processor's average benchmark score of 44,573 places it at the 89th percentile of all CPUs. The Intel Core i5-110 holds a 50th percentile ranking with an average score of zero, indicating no measured performance data exists for it.

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D's strongest absolute scores come from data compression at 271,649 and integer math at 70,774, with floating point math trailing at 43,594. Single-thread performance records 3,494, while multithreaded performance reaches 25,047. The extended instruction score is 20,455, random string sorting hits 32,999, and data encryption processes 15,797. Physics calculations score 2,779, and prime number finding produces 221.

Without any recorded scores for the Intel i5-110, head-to-head percentages cannot be calculated. The AMD part's nearest rivals provide context for its standing. The Intel Core i5-14600 sits 0.7% above the Ryzen 5 7500X3D with an average score of 44,889. The Intel Core Ultra X9 388H trails by 0.2% at 44,466, the Intel Core i9-13950HX is 0.5% behind at 44,342, and the AMD Ryzen AI Max 385 sits 0.6% lower at 44,309. These deltas show the 7500X3D operating within a tight cluster of similarly performing processors.

The benchmark results indicate that the Ryzen 5 7500X3D delivers strong multithreaded throughput for a six-core, twelve-thread part. Its data compression score of 271,649 is by far the largest single metric recorded, suggesting excellent cache utilization. The 96 MB shared L3 cache likely contributes to this result, as compressed data workloads benefit from large on-die storage.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D wins in every category for which data exists. The Intel Core i5-110 has zero recorded wins due to the absence of benchmark scores. The AMD part's victories span all measured workloads: data compression, encryption, extended instructions, prime number finding, floating point math, integer math, multithreaded tasks, physics simulations, random string sorting, and single-threaded operations.

The Intel i5-110 cannot be credited with any benchmark win based on the database. Its percentile ranking of 50 with an average score of zero indicates it has not been tested or recorded in the PassMark suite. The comparison therefore defaults entirely to the AMD processor's measured capabilities.

For workload-specific strengths, the Ryzen 5 7500X3D shows particular aptitude in memory-bandwidth-sensitive tasks. Its data compression score dominates the rest of its profile, while encryption and extended instructions show moderate throughput. The single-thread score of 3,494 and multithread score of 25,047 give a ratio of roughly 7.2, typical for a six-core design with simultaneous multithreading. Physics score of 2,779 reflects moderate computational density.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D uses a 5 nm process node fabricated by TSMC, with a transistor count of 11,270 million and a die size of 71 mm². It belongs to the 7000 series under the Raphael codename, representing the Zen 4 generation. The Intel Core i5-110 uses a 14 nm process node from Intel's own foundry, built on the Comet Lake architecture. The database does not record transistor count or die size for the Intel part.

Core and thread counts match at 6 cores and 12 threads each. Cache configurations differ substantially. The AMD part provides 64 KB L1 per core, 1 MB L2 per core, and 96 MB shared L3. The Intel part provides 64 KB L1 per core, 256 KB L2 per core, and 12 MB shared L3. The L3 difference is 8x in favor of AMD, which explains the compression benchmark advantage.

Memory support diverges completely. The AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D uses DDR5 memory on a dual-channel bus with 83.2 GB/s bandwidth. The Intel Core i5-110 uses DDR4 memory on a dual-channel bus with 42.7 GB/s bandwidth. That is nearly double the theoretical memory bandwidth for the AMD part. ECC memory support is present on the AMD chip but absent on the Intel chip.

PCIe connectivity differs by generation and lane count. The AMD part offers Gen 5 with 24 CPU lanes, while the Intel part offers Gen 3 with 16 CPU lanes. Integrated graphics also differ: the AMD chip uses Radeon Graphics, while the Intel chip uses UHD Graphics 630.

Clock speeds show the AMD part clocked higher. The Ryzen 5 7500X3D has a base clock of 4.00 GHz and boost clock of 4.50 GHz. The Intel Core i5-110 has a base clock of 2.90 GHz and boost clock of 4.30 GHz. Both parts have a 65 W TDP, and neither has an unlocked multiplier.

Sockets and platforms differ entirely. The AMD part uses AMD Socket AM5, while the Intel part uses Intel Socket 1200. Release dates are close, with the AMD part released on 2025-11-11 and the Intel part on 2025-09-10. The AMD launch MSRP is $269, and the Intel launch MSRP is $200.

The Verdict

The benchmark data shows a clear imbalance: the AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D has a full suite of recorded PassMark scores, while the Intel Core i5-110 has none. The AMD part's average benchmark score of 44,573 places it at the 89th percentile of all CPUs, compared to the Intel part's 50th percentile with a zero average score.

Users requiring measured performance data should select the AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D, as it is the only part with verified results. The AMD chip's nearest rivals include the Intel Core i5-14600, which is 0.7% faster, and the Intel Core Ultra X9 388H, which is 0.2% slower. These margins indicate the 7500X3D competes effectively with modern mid-range and upper-mid-range processors.

The Intel Core i5-110 cannot be recommended based on benchmark performance because no data exists. Its architectural specifications show a 14 nm process, 12 MB L3 cache, DDR4 memory support, and PCIe Gen 3 connectivity, all of which are older-generation features compared to the AMD part's 5 nm process, 96 MB L3 cache, DDR5 support, and PCIe Gen 5 connectivity.

For workloads that benefit from large cache and high memory bandwidth, the AMD part's architecture provides clear advantages. The 8x larger L3 cache and nearly double memory bandwidth directly support data-heavy tasks. The AMD processor also offers ECC memory support, which the Intel part lacks.

The Intel Core i5-110 does carry a lower launch MSRP of $200 compared to the AMD part's $269, but without benchmark scores, the database cannot assess whether that price difference corresponds to any performance trade-off. Both parts share a 65 W TDP and locked multipliers.

The two processors share identical core counts, thread counts, TDP, memory bus width, and locked multiplier status. All other recorded specifications differ. The AMD part leads in process node, cache sizes, memory bandwidth, PCIe generation, and ECC support. The Intel part offers a lower launch MSRP and earlier release date. The AMD part's higher clock speeds, larger caches, and newer platform position it as the more capable processor on paper, and the recorded benchmarks confirm that capability. The Intel part's lack of benchmark data leaves its actual performance unverified.
