Intel Celeron N4500 vs AMD 3020e

The Intel Celeron N4500, based on the 10-nm Jasper Lake architecture, is a processor developed for energy-efficient and cost-effective devices.

It features two cores and two threads, with 2 MB L2 cache and 4 MB L3 cache for basic computing tasks. The integrated Intel UHD Graphics with 16 Execution Units (Jasper Lake) is designed for displaying user interfaces and media playback. With a maximum memory bandwidth of 47 GB/s, the Intel Celeron N4500 offers solid performance in single-core operation and handles basic multi-core tasks.

The AMD 3020e, manufactured using a 14-nm process and based on the Dali (Zen) architecture, is also designed for affordable and efficient systems.

It features two cores and two threads, with 1 MB L2 cache and 4 MB L3 cache for everyday applications. The integrated AMD Radeon RX Vega 3 (Raven Ridge) offers superior graphics performance in this segment. The maximum memory bandwidth is 38 GB/s. In single-core operation, the AMD 3020e demonstrates higher performance than the Intel Celeron N4500.

In a direct performance comparison, the AMD 3020e shows over 10 percent higher performance in single-core operation. For gaming scenarios, the AMD Radeon RX Vega 3 (Raven Ridge) of the AMD 3020e generally offers better performance than the Intel UHD Graphics 16 EUs (Jasper Lake) of the Intel Celeron N4500, which can enable a smoother experience in simple games.

Both processors are designed for low power consumption and a low Thermal Design Power (TDP), making them suitable for fanless systems. Their price-performance ratio positions them in the entry-level segment for basic functionality.
