AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS vs Intel Core Ultra 7 155UL Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains a full set of benchmark scores for the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS, while the Intel Core Ultra 7 155UL has no benchmark entries in the database. This asymmetry makes a direct head-to-head comparison impossible using measured results. The AMD part shows a comprehensive profile across Cinebench and Passmark tests, with an average benchmark score of 19,364. The Intel processor is listed with an average benchmark score of 0, indicating missing or unavailable test data.

For the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS, the Cinebench results show a multi-core score of 12,342 in R23, a single-core score of 1,742 in R23, a multi-core score of 5,183 in R20, and a single-core score of 731 in R20. The older R15 test shows a multi-core score of 1,243 and a single-core score of 175. These numbers indicate consistent scaling across the Cinebench versions, with the single-thread performance improving by a factor of roughly 10x between R15 and R23, which is expected given the test's evolution.

In Passmark tests, the AMD chip delivers an integer math score of 50,800, a floating point math score of 27,800, and an extended instructions score of 11,219. Data compression scores reach 168,692, while encryption scores hit 10,718. The find prime numbers test returns a score of 48, random string sorting scores 17,669, and physics scores 821. The multithread score stands at 14,520, with a single thread score of 2,740.

The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS holds a percentile ranking of 73 among all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals in the database include the Intel Core Ultra 5 226V with an average score of 19,368 and a delta of 0 percent, the Intel Core i5-1345U with an average score of 19,411 and a delta of -0.2 percent, the Intel Core i7-8700K with an average score of 19,238 and a delta of 0.7 percent, and the Intel Core i7-10700F with an average score of 19,499 and a delta of -0.7 percent. These deltas indicate that the AMD part is essentially tied with the Core Ultra 5 226V, slightly behind the Core i5-1345U by 0.2 percent, slightly ahead of the Core i7-8700K by 0.7 percent, and slightly behind the Core i7-10700F by 0.7 percent.

The absence of any benchmark data for the Intel Core Ultra 7 155UL means the database cannot produce a single measured comparison point. The wins counter shows zero wins for each processor, reflecting the fact that no head-to-head benchmark entries exist. The database records the Intel part with a percentile ranking of 50, but this percentile is derived from an average score of 0, which is not a meaningful comparison against the AMD processor's measured performance.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS uses the Zen 3+ architecture under the codename Rembrandt-R, fabricated on a 6 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core Ultra 7 155UL uses the Meteor Lake architecture under the codename Meteor Lake-PS, fabricated on a 7 nm process at Intel's own foundry. The AMD chip has 6 cores and 12 threads, while the Intel chip has 12 cores and 14 threads. The thread count on the Intel part is notably lower than double the core count, indicating a hybrid core arrangement within the Meteor Lake design.

Cache configurations differ substantially between the two. The AMD processor has 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 512 KB of L2 cache per core, and 16 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel processor has 112 KB of L1 cache per core, 2 MB of L2 cache per core, and 12 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel part offers a larger per-core L1 and L2 allocation, while the AMD part provides a larger total L3 pool.

The AMD processor has a base clock of 3.30 GHz and a boost clock of 4.40 GHz, with a TDP of 35 watts. The Intel processor has a base clock of 1.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz, with a TDP of 15 watts. The AMD part runs at a higher base frequency but a lower boost frequency, while the Intel part runs at a lower base frequency but a higher boost frequency. The power envelope of the Intel part is significantly lower, at 15 watts versus 35 watts for the AMD part.

Memory support shows the AMD processor using DDR5 with dual-channel configuration and a measured memory bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s. The Intel processor also supports DDR5 with dual-channel configuration, but the database notes that memory support depends on the motherboard, and its memory bandwidth is listed at 89.6 GB/s. Neither processor supports ECC memory.

PCIe lanes differ as well. The AMD processor provides Gen 4 with 20 lanes from the CPU only. The Intel processor provides Gen 4 with 8 lanes from the CPU only. The AMD part offers more than double the PCIe lane count.

Integrated graphics differ in branding and execution. The AMD processor uses a Radeon 660M, while the Intel processor uses an Arc Xe-LPG with 64 execution units. No performance numbers for either integrated GPU are present in the database.

The AMD processor uses the AMD Socket FP7, while the Intel processor uses Intel Socket 1851. The AMD processor is classified in the mobile market segment, while the Intel processor is classified in the desktop market segment. The release dates show the AMD part arriving on August 31, 2024, and the Intel part arriving on April 7, 2024, making the Intel processor the earlier release by roughly four months.

The Verdict

The database contains complete benchmark records for the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS and no benchmark records for the Intel Core Ultra 7 155UL. The AMD processor demonstrates measured performance across nine Cinebench tests and ten Passmark tests, with an average benchmark score of 19,364 and a percentile ranking of 73. The Intel processor sits at a percentile ranking of 50 with an average score of zero, which reflects missing data rather than actual performance.

For users relying strictly on the recorded data, the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS is the only processor with verified benchmark results. Its nearest rivals, all within a 0.7 percent delta, include the Intel Core Ultra 5 226V, Intel Core i5-1345U, Intel Core i7-8700K, and Intel Core i7-10700F. The AMD part matches the Core Ultra 5 226V exactly in average score, trails the Core i5-1345U by 0.2 percent, leads the Core i7-8700K by 0.7 percent, and trails the Core i7-10700F by 0.7 percent. These deltas place the Ryzen 5 7533HS in a tight performance cluster with those four rivals.

The Intel Core Ultra 7 155UL carries a launch MSRP of $426. The database shows no such price field for the AMD processor. The Intel part offers a higher core count of 12 versus 6, a higher boost clock of 4.80 GHz versus 4.40 GHz, a lower TDP of 15 watts versus 35 watts, a higher memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s versus 76.8 GB/s, and a newer socket in Intel Socket 1851 versus AMD Socket FP7. However, without benchmark scores, these architectural advantages cannot be validated against measured performance.

The verdict from the data is straightforward: the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS delivers a full set of benchmark results and a percentile ranking of 73, making it a measured performer in the database. The Intel Core Ultra 7 155UL has no recorded benchmarks, so its ranking of 50 is based on an average score of zero and carries no empirical weight. Any selection between the two must account for the fact that only one processor has test data available.
