AMD Ryzen 5 8500G vs Intel Core i5-14501TE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no directly paired test results for the AMD Ryzen 5 8500G and the Intel Core i5-14501TE. The head-to-head benchmark array is empty, and the Intel part has no recorded benchmark scores in any of the tracked tests. Consequently, no head-to-head wins can be assigned to either processor based on the recorded measurements.

The AMD Ryzen 5 8500G, however, has a full suite of benchmark data. Its average benchmark score is 20,425, placing it in the 74th percentile among all CPUs tracked in the database. The nearest rivals to this AMD part, based on average score, include the AMD EPYC 9454P with an average score of 20,422 (0% delta), the Intel Core Ultra 7 258V with 20,454 (-0.1% delta), the AMD Ryzen 5 5600 with 20,468 (-0.2% delta), and the AMD EPYC 7713 with 20,363 (0.3% delta). These data points show the Ryzen 5 8500G sits within a tight performance cluster, effectively matching those four processors in aggregate benchmark performance.

In individual tests, the Ryzen 5 8500G shows notable strengths. In Cinebench R23 multi-core, it scores 18,368, while its single-core score is 2,593. In Geekbench, it records 9,444 multi-core and 2,354 single-core. The 3DMark tests show progressive scaling from 1,913 in the 2-thread test to 5,224 in the 16-thread test, with a maximum-thread score of 5,213. PassMark results include a multi-thread score of 21,610, single-thread of 3,891, integer math at 63,123, floating point math at 39,074, and data encryption at 14,220. The extended instructions score is 19,098, and random string sorting reaches 29,407. These figures establish a baseline for the AMD processor, but without Intel counterpart scores, direct comparison is impossible.

The Verdict

Based strictly on the recorded data, the AMD Ryzen 5 8500G is the only processor with measurable benchmark performance. Its average score of 20,425 and 74th percentile placement indicate it performs competitively against a broad range of CPUs, matching processors like the AMD EPYC 9454P and Intel Core Ultra 7 258V within a 0.3% delta. The Intel Core i5-14501TE has no benchmark data, so no performance verdict can be derived from the database.

For users who require verified performance figures, the AMD Ryzen 5 8500G provides a complete set of measurements across Cinebench, Geekbench, 3DMark, and PassMark tests. The Intel Core i5-14501TE cannot be assessed for performance, only for its architectural specifications. The choice between them, from the data alone, depends on whether verified benchmark results are needed. If yes, the AMD part has them. If the selection relies on specifications, the Intel part offers a higher boost clock, larger caches, lower TDP, DDR4 compatibility, and PCIe Gen 5 support, while the AMD part offers a smaller die, higher base clock, and DDR5-only memory with a recorded bandwidth of 83.2 GB/s.
