AMD Athlon 3000G vs Intel Processor N150

The AMD Athlon 3000G is an AMD desktop processor for entry-level PCs, based on the Dali (Zen) architecture, manufactured using a 14 nm process.

It offers 4 MB of L3 cache and a maximum memory bandwidth of 43 GB/s. Intel's Intel Processor N150 uses the Twin Lake architecture, manufactured using a 7 nm process, and targets energy-efficient desktop systems.

It features 4 MB of L2 cache, 6 MB of L3 cache, and 38 GB/s memory bandwidth. Both support PCIe 3.0. The single-core performance of the Intel Processor N150 is significantly higher than that of the AMD Athlon 3000G in benchmarks (over 10 percent). In multi-core performance too, the Intel Processor N150 shows significantly higher performance in most tests; one exception shows similar values.

For gaming, the AMD Athlon 3000G is potentially better suited for very light games thanks to its integrated AMD Radeon RX Vega 3 (Raven Ridge) and higher memory bandwidth of 43 GB/s compared to the Intel UHD Graphics 24 EUs (Alder Lake) of the N150. Information on power consumption, TDP, and price-performance ratio is not available.

In summary, the Intel Processor N150 offers superior computing performance for general tasks and multitasking. The AMD Athlon 3000G is an option for systems focused on very light gaming. For more responsive everyday system performance, the Intel Processor N150 is the better choice.
