AMD Ryzen 3 8305G vs AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G: Comparison
Ryzen 3 8305G vs Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G: the l3 cache difference
On l3 cache the spread is 50%, Ryzen 3 8305G 8 MB against Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G 4 MB, so Ryzen 3 8305G takes it. They differ on p-core boost clock too, Up to 4.9 GHz on the Ryzen 3 8305G versus 4.0 GHz on the Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G. They differ on p-core base clock too, 3.4 GHz on the Ryzen 3 8305G versus 3.8 GHz on the Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G. Add l2 cache to that, 4 MB on the Ryzen 3 8305G versus 2 MB on the Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G, and the pattern holds. There is a split on socket as well, AM5 on the Ryzen 3 8305G versus AM4 on the Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G. Release year is not the same on both, 2025 on the Ryzen 3 8305G versus 2022 on the Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G. Igpu is not the same on both, AMD Radeon 740M on the Ryzen 3 8305G versus Radeon Graphics on the Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G. They differ on unlocked multiplier too, Yes on the Ryzen 3 8305G versus No on the Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G. There is a split on base power as well, 45-65W on the Ryzen 3 8305G versus 65 W on the Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G.
Who each one is for
The Ryzen 3 8305G is the one to take for mainstream desktop builds and everyday productivity, though it is the wrong buy for extreme overclocking (unless K/X-series) and workstation-class multi-threaded workloads. The Ryzen 3 PRO 4355G suits mainstream desktop builds and everyday productivity, though it is not built for extreme overclocking (unless K/X-series) and workstation-class multi-threaded workloads.
Where the two are identical
The common ground is wider than the gap: total cores, total threads, tdp, integrated graphics and form factor are identical here. They match on 2 further specifications as well.
