AMD Ryzen 5 7400F vs Intel Core i5-14501E Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F and Intel Core i5-14501E are both 6-core, 12-thread desktop processors, but the benchmark database records a stark asymmetry in available performance data. The Ryzen 5 7400F has a complete set of measured scores across Cinebench and Passmark suites, while the Core i5-14501E currently has no recorded benchmark results in the database. This absence of data for the Intel part means direct head-to-head comparisons cannot be computed, and the win tally stands at zero for both processors.

What the recorded data does show is where the Ryzen 5 7400F positions itself in absolute terms. In Cinebench R23 multicore, it scores 21,765 points, with a single-core result of 3,072. The Cinebench R20 run shows 9,141 multicore and 1,290 single-core, while R15 delivers 2,193 multicore and 309 single-core. Passmark results include a multithread score of 25,645, a single-thread score of 3,689, integer math at 74,745, floating point math at 45,799, and extended instructions at 21,747. Data compression reaches 289,999, data encryption hits 16,712, and random string sorting lands at 35,096. The find prime numbers test records 191, and physics scores 1,660.

For the Intel Core i5-14501E, the database lists no scores, no average benchmark score, and no nearest rivals. The percentile versus all CPUs is 50, meaning it sits at the midpoint of the database population, but this is not backed by any measured workload results. Any comparison between the two parts in terms of recorded performance is therefore impossible; the data simply does not exist for the Intel side yet.

The Ryzen 5 7400F, by contrast, holds an 83rd percentile ranking versus all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 32,750. Its nearest rivals in the database are the Intel Core i5-14600T with an average score of 32,707 and a delta of 0.1 percent, the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H at 32,697 with a delta of 0.2 percent, the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H at 32,812 with a negative delta of 0.2 percent, and the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 at 32,662 with a delta of 0.3 percent. These deltas are all within a fraction of a percent, which places the Ryzen 5 7400F in a tight cluster of similarly performing processors rather than at either extreme of the database.

Architecture Differences

The two processors diverge sharply at the architectural level. The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F uses the Zen 4 architecture, specifically the Raphael codename, built on a 5 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core i5-14501E uses Raptor Lake architecture, specifically Raptor Lake-R, on a 10 nm process at Intel. The process node difference is significant: one uses 5 nm, the other uses 10 nm. The Ryzen die size measures 71 mm² with 6,570 million transistors, while the Intel die is substantially larger at 215 mm², with no transistor count recorded.

Cache organization differs as well. The Ryzen 5 7400F provides 64 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 32 MB of shared L3. The Intel Core i5-14501E offers 80 KB of L1 per core, 1.25 MB of L2 per core, and 24 MB of shared L3. The Intel part has more per-core L1 and L2, while the AMD part has more shared L3.

Clock behavior also differs. The Ryzen 5 7400F has a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.70 GHz. The Intel Core i5-14501E has a base clock of 3.30 GHz and a boost clock of 5.20 GHz. The Intel part boosts higher, but the AMD part has a higher base frequency. Both are rated at 65 W TDP.

Memory support is another point of divergence. The Ryzen 5 7400F supports DDR5 only, with dual-channel memory and a recorded bandwidth of 83.2 GB/s. The Intel Core i5-14501E supports both DDR4 and DDR5, also dual-channel, with no bandwidth figure recorded. Both support ECC memory. PCIe capabilities differ: the Ryzen provides Gen 5 with 24 CPU lanes, while the Intel provides Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes. Integrated graphics are absent on the Ryzen, listed as N/A, while the Intel part includes UHD Graphics 770.

The sockets are incompatible. The Ryzen 5 7400F uses AMD Socket AM5, while the Intel Core i5-14501E uses Intel Socket 1700. The Intel multiplier is locked, whereas the AMD multiplier is unlocked. The Ryzen carries the part number 100-000001845, and the Intel carries Q49HSRNJM.

Where Each One Wins

Because the Intel Core i5-14501E has no recorded benchmark scores, the database cannot demonstrate any workload where it wins against the Ryzen 5 7400F. The measured wins column is zero for both processors. The Ryzen 5 7400F, however, has enough recorded data to characterize its strengths in absolute terms.

The Ryzen 5 7400F shows strong multicore throughput. Its Cinebench R23 multicore score of 21,765 indicates it can handle heavily threaded workloads such as rendering and encoding. The Passmark multithread score of 25,645 corroborates this. The single-thread Passmark score of 3,689, along with the Cinebench R23 single-core result of 3,072, shows competitive per-core performance for lightly threaded tasks. The integer math score of 74,745 and floating point math score of 45,799 suggest general computational work is well served. Data compression at 289,999 and random string sorting at 35,096 point to strong performance in data handling tasks. The extended instructions score of 21,747 indicates the processor handles SIMD and specialized instruction workloads effectively.

The Intel Core i5-14501E cannot be assigned any wins from the recorded data. Its specifications indicate a higher boost clock of 5.20 GHz versus 4.70 GHz for the AMD part, and it includes integrated graphics, which the AMD part lacks. It also supports DDR4 memory, which broadens platform compatibility. These are specification-level advantages, not measured benchmark wins. Without recorded scores, any claim of actual performance superiority on the Intel side would be unsupported by the database.

The use-case split is therefore lopsided in terms of evidence. The Ryzen 5 7400F has demonstrated performance across rendering, math, encryption, compression, and single-threaded tests. The Intel Core i5-14501E remains unmeasured, so its performance profile cannot be placed relative to the AMD part or any other processor in the database.
