AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS vs Intel Core 9 273PE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows a decisive sweep for the Intel Core 9 273PE across the entire benchmark suite. The Intel part wins all 17 recorded comparisons, with the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS failing to take a single test. The margins are substantial in almost every category, and the pattern is consistent: Intel dominates both multi-threaded throughput and single-thread performance.

In Cinebench testing, the Intel Core 9 273PE posts 3153 points in Cinebench R15 multi-core, which is 60.6% ahead of the AMD's 1243. The single-core R15 result shows 445 versus 175, also a 60.7% gap. Cinebench R20 multi-core delivers 13140 against 5183, again a 60.6% advantage. The single-core R20 score of 1855 versus 731 is another 60.6% delta. Cinebench R23 multi-core shows 31288 versus 12342, a 60.6% lead, while the single-core R23 result of 4417 against 1742 is likewise 60.6% in Intel's favor. The consistency of that 60.6% figure across all six Cinebench tests indicates a structural performance difference rather than a workload-specific anomaly.

PassMark results tell a similar story but with varying margins. The largest gap appears in PassMark find prime numbers, where Intel scores 203 versus AMD's 48, a 76.4% difference. Floating point math shows Intel at 107884 against 27800, a 74.2% lead. Physics testing delivers 3120 versus 821, a 73.7% gap. The data compression test shows 405885 versus 168692, a 58.4% difference. Data encryption results are closer relatively: 22719 versus 10718, a 52.8% gap. Extended instructions show 24630 versus 11219, a 54.4% difference. Integer math records 139410 versus 50800, a 63.6% lead. Random string sorting posts 45098 versus 17669, a 60.8% gap. Multithread performance shows 36810 versus 14520, a 60.6% difference.

The narrowest margin in the entire comparison is PassMark single-thread, where Intel scores 3650 against AMD's 2740, a 24.9% advantage. That is still a clear win, but it is the only test where the gap falls below 50%. The single-thread result is recorded twice in the database with identical values, confirming the measurement.

The average benchmark score reinforces the hierarchy. The Intel Core 9 273PE sits at 49845 in the database, while the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS averages 19364. The Intel part ranks in the 90th percentile among all CPUs, while the AMD chip lands in the 73rd percentile. That percentile spread matches the benchmark deltas: the Intel processor is not merely faster, it occupies a different performance tier entirely.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core 9 273PE wins every recorded benchmark, so the use-case split is heavily skewed. The data shows no category where the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS comes out ahead. The closest competition is in single-threaded PassMark work, but even there Intel holds a 24.9% edge.

For multi-threaded workloads, the Intel part is especially dominant. The Cinebench multi-core tests all show a 60.6% gap, and PassMark multithread matches that exact figure. The physics test shows a 73.7% lead, which suggests strong performance in simulation and physically based rendering tasks. Floating point math, often relevant to scientific computing and certain rendering workloads, shows a 74.2% advantage for Intel.

The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS does have a lower thermal design power of 35 watts versus Intel's 65 watts, which indicates it may fit into thinner or more power-constrained chassis designs. The database lists the AMD part as Mobile segment while the Intel part is Desktop. However, in raw performance terms, the recorded benchmarks offer no scenario where the AMD processor wins.

The data does show that the AMD chip's closest rivals in the database include the Intel Core i5-1345U and Intel Core i7-10700F, with average scores within 0.7% of the AMD part. That places the Ryzen 5 7533HS in a performance bracket alongside mid-range Intel parts from previous generations. The Intel Core 9 273PE, by contrast, sits near the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 388 and Intel Core i9-13980HX, with deltas of 0.1% and 1.1% respectively. Those rival comparisons show the Intel Core 9 273PE is competing with top-tier mobile and desktop silicon, not entry-level parts.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from fundamentally different design lineages. The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS uses the Zen 3+ architecture under the codename Rembrandt-R, built on a 6 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core 9 273PE uses the Bartlett Lake codename, fabricated on a 10 nm process at Intel's own foundry. The node advantage goes to AMD in lithographic terms, but the benchmark results show that architectural efficiency and core count outweigh the process node difference.

Core counts differ sharply. The AMD chip has 6 cores and 12 threads, while the Intel part has 12 cores and 24 threads, exactly double in both metrics. That core and thread advantage is the most plausible explanation for the consistent 60.6% multi-core deltas observed across Cinebench and PassMark multithread tests.

Cache layouts are also distinct. The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS carries 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel Core 9 273PE has 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 36 MB of shared L3. The Intel part has more than double the L3 capacity, which helps with larger working sets and data reuse.

The Intel processor supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, while the AMD chip lists DDR5 only. The Intel part also supports ECC memory, which the AMD chip does not. Memory bandwidth figures show 89.6 GB/s for Intel versus 76.8 GB/s for AMD, a difference that appears in the specifications but does not directly appear in the benchmark scores.

PCIe support differs as well. The Intel Core 9 273PE lists PCIe Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes, while the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS uses PCIe Gen 4 with 20 CPU lanes. The AMD part has more lanes but an older generation, while Intel offers the newer standard with fewer lanes. Integrated graphics also differ: AMD uses Radeon 660M, Intel uses UHD Graphics 730.

Specification Differences

The core and thread counts are the most prominent difference: 6 cores and 12 threads for AMD versus 12 cores and 24 threads for Intel. Base clocks show 3.30 GHz for AMD and 2.30 GHz for Intel, but boost clocks reverse the ordering: 4.40 GHz for AMD and 5.70 GHz for Intel. The Intel part has a substantially higher boost ceiling.

Thermal design power differs by nearly double: 35 watts for the AMD chip versus 65 watts for Intel. The socket types are incompatible: AMD Socket FP7 for the Ryzen, Intel Socket 1700 for the Core 9. Process nodes are 6 nm for AMD and 10 nm for Intel. The market segments differ, with AMD listed as Mobile and Intel as Desktop.

Release dates show the AMD part arriving on 2024-08-31 and the Intel part on 2026-03-08, a gap of roughly 19 months. The Intel processor has a launch MSRP of $549, while the AMD chip has no recorded launch MSRP. Both processors have locked multipliers. The part numbers are distinct: 100-000001632 and 100-000001634 for AMD, SA4QD for Intel. The AMD chip lists a die size of 208 mm², while the Intel die size is not recorded.
