Here is a one-page comparison between Intel and AMD processors:

Intel vs AMD: A One-Page Comparison

Intel and AMD are the two dominant players in the CPU market, competing across desktops,
laptops, servers, and gaming systems. Each has its strengths in different areas like
performance, efficiency, pricing, and market focus.

1. Architecture & Fabrication

Feature Intel AMD

Instruction Set x86-64 x86-64

Raptor Lake (13th Gen), Meteor Lake Zen 3 / Zen 4 (Ryzen 5000–7000
Microarchitecture
(14th) series)

Intel 7 (≈10nm), moving to Intel 4


Process Node TSMC 5nm / 6nm
(7nm)

Hybrid (Performance + Efficiency


Core Types Uniform High-Performance cores
cores)

2. Performance Comparison

 Intel Strengths:

o Leads in single-core performance, often giving it the edge in gaming.

o Hybrid architecture boosts power efficiency and multitasking (especially in


12th/13th Gen).

o Integrated Thunderbolt and Quick Sync for creators.

 AMD Strengths:

o Higher core and thread counts at a given price point—great for multitasking
and rendering.

o Superior multi-core performance in many workloads (e.g., video editing, 3D


rendering).

o Uses TSMC’s efficient process nodes, leading to better thermals and


efficiency.
3. Integrated Graphics & Chipsets

 Intel: Most CPUs include Intel UHD or Iris Xe graphics—fine for everyday use but not
for heavy gaming.

 AMD: Ryzen "G" series (e.g., 5600G) feature Radeon Vega graphics, stronger than
Intel’s in many budget systems.

4. Pricing & Value

Criteria Intel AMD

Price-to- ✅ Better value at mid-range and


⚠️Generally higher prices
Performance high-end

✅ Very efficient with Zen 4 and 5nm


Power Efficiency ✅ Improved in hybrid chips
nodes

✅ K-series CPUs support unlocked


Overclocking ✅ Most Ryzen CPUs are unlocked
tuning

5. Use Cases

 Gaming:

o Intel often leads due to higher clock speeds and single-threaded


performance.

o AMD is very competitive, especially with 3D V-Cache (e.g., Ryzen 7 7800X3D).

 Productivity & Multitasking:

o AMD often wins with more cores/threads at lower prices.

 Laptops:

o Intel Evo platform offers premium features.

o AMD Ryzen 6000/7000 Mobile delivers excellent battery life and onboard
graphics.

Conclusion:

 Intel is a strong choice for gamers, creators using specific Intel tools (like Quick
Sync), or those seeking the latest hybrid architecture.
 AMD offers better value for multitasking, power efficiency, and desktop
performance, especially in threaded workloads.

Choosing between them depends on your budget, use case, and upgrade path.
