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

The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS and Intel Core 9 273PQE occupy different tiers of the processor market, and the recorded benchmark data reflects a large performance divide. The Intel part wins every single head-to-head test in the database, with the AMD processor trailing by margins that range from roughly 40% to nearly 78%. The Intel Core 9 273PQE also sits at the 93rd percentile of all CPUs tracked, while the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS lands at the 73rd percentile. These figures frame a comparison where the Intel processor delivers substantially higher throughput across every measured workload, though the two chips also differ fundamentally in platform, power envelope, and target segment.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The Intel Core 9 273PQE dominates every benchmark in the head-to-head set. In Cinebench R23 multi-core, the Intel processor scores 39190 against 12342 for the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS, a delta of -68.5%. The single-core result follows the same pattern: 5532 versus 1742, again a -68.5% difference. These Cinebench deltas are remarkably consistent across R15, R20, and R23, all hovering at -68.5% for both multi-core and single-core runs. The consistency suggests the performance gap is structural rather than workload-specific.

PassMark results show similar dominance with some variation in the margins. The largest gap appears in floating point math, where the Intel part scores 125546 against 27800, a -77.9% delta. Find prime numbers shows the second largest deficit at -75.8%, with the Intel processor scoring 198 versus 48. Data compression favors the Intel chip by -71.2% (585752 versus 168692), and extended instructions show a -71% delta (38743 versus 11219). The narrowest gap in the entire set is single-thread performance: the Intel Core 9 273PQE scores 4573 against 2740, a -40.1% delta. While still a decisive win for Intel, the single-thread margin is notably smaller than the multi-thread margins, indicating that the AMD architecture is comparatively more competitive on a per-thread basis.

Other PassMark workloads reinforce the pattern. Integer math shows the Intel part at 164629 versus 50800, a -69.1% delta. Data encryption scores 29636 versus 10718, a -63.8% delta. Random string sorting shows 53167 versus 17669, a -66.8% delta. Physics scores 2754 versus 821, a -70.2% delta. Multi-thread performance in PassMark is 46107 versus 14520, a -68.5% delta. The overall average benchmark score tells the same story: 66099 for the Intel Core 9 273PQE versus 19364 for the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS. The AMD processor's nearest rivals in the database include the Intel Core Ultra 5 226V (19368, 0% delta), the Intel Core i5-1345U (19411, -0.2% delta), and the Intel Core i7-8700K (19238, 0.7% delta), which places its performance in the range of mainstream mobile and older desktop parts. The Intel Core 9 273PQE, by contrast, sits alongside the Intel Core Ultra 5 250KF Plus (66159, -0.1% delta), the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D (65914, 0.3% delta), and the Intel Core Ultra 5 250K Plus (66855, -1.1% delta).

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different design lineages. The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS uses the Zen 3+ architecture under the Rembrandt-R codename, built on a 6 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core 9 273PQE uses the Bartlett Lake codename on a 10 nm process at Intel. The AMD chip integrates 6 cores and 12 threads, while the Intel part doubles the core count to 12 cores and 24 threads. Base clocks are close: 3.30 GHz for AMD versus 3.40 GHz for Intel. Boost clocks diverge sharply, with the AMD chip reaching 4.40 GHz and the Intel chip boosting to 5.90 GHz.

Cache configurations differ substantially. The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS provides 64 KB of L1 per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of shared L3. The Intel Core 9 273PQE provides 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 36 MB of shared L3. The larger per-core L2 and the more than double shared L3 give the Intel processor a significant cache advantage that shows up in the benchmark data.

Platform support also diverges. The AMD part uses AMD Socket FP7 and supports DDR5 memory only, with dual-channel bandwidth rated at 76.8 GB/s. The Intel part uses Intel Socket 1700 and supports both DDR4 and DDR5, with dual-channel bandwidth rated at 89.6 GB/s. The Intel processor also supports ECC memory, while the AMD processor does not. PCIe capabilities differ as well: the AMD chip provides Gen 4 with 20 lanes, while the Intel chip provides Gen 5 with 16 lanes. Integrated graphics differ: the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS uses Radeon 660M, and the Intel Core 9 273PQE uses UHD Graphics 770.

The market segments are not the same. The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS is a mobile processor, while the Intel Core 9 273PQE is a desktop processor. The power envelope reflects this: the AMD part has a 35 W TDP, and the Intel part has a 125 W TDP. The release dates also differ, with the AMD chip appearing in 2024-08-31 and the Intel chip in 2026-03-08. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier.

The Verdict

The recorded data points to a decisive win for the Intel Core 9 273PQE in raw performance. The Intel part leads by roughly 68.5% across the Cinebench suite, by 40.1% in PassMark single-thread, and by margins between 63.8% and 77.9% across the PassMark multi-thread workloads. The 93rd percentile ranking versus the 73rd percentile ranking places the Intel processor in a higher performance class entirely. The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS is a 35 W mobile part with 6 cores and 12 threads, while the Intel Core 9 273PQE is a 125 W desktop part with 12 cores and 24 threads. The core count, cache size, boost clock, memory bandwidth, and PCIe generation all favor the Intel processor. The AMD chip offers a lower TDP, a smaller die process node, and a mobile platform, which suits power-constrained systems, but the benchmark results show no workload in the database where the AMD processor is competitive. For any user selecting purely on measured performance, the Intel Core 9 273PQE is the clear choice. The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS remains relevant only in contexts where its 35 W TDP and mobile socket are the primary constraints.
