AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS vs Intel Core i9-14901TE Comparison

AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS vs Intel Core i9-14901TE

The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS and Intel Core i9-14901TE occupy different positions in the database. The Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS is a mobile processor with recorded benchmark scores across multiple tests, while the Intel Core i9-14901TE has no benchmark entries in the database, leaving its performance metrics unmeasured. The Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS holds an 80th percentile ranking among all CPUs, whereas the i9-14901TE sits at the 50th percentile, a position that reflects the absence of recorded data rather than measured performance. The recorded data for the AMD part shows a robust set of Cinebench and PassMark results, while the Intel part has an average benchmark score of zero, indicating no comparable measurements are available.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS wins in every measurable category because it is the only processor in this comparison with recorded benchmark data. The Intel Core i9-14901TE has no benchmark entries, so there are no wins to assign to it from the database. The Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS delivers a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 18104, a Cinebench R23 singlecore score of 2555, and a PassMark multithread score of 21465. In single-threaded work, the PassMark single thread score reaches 3561, while the PassMark singlethread test also records 3561. The data compression test shows a PassMark score of 246446, and data encryption records 14962. Extended instruction workloads produce a PassMark score of 18507, while floating point math reaches 43019 and integer math reaches 69839. Prime number finding scores 71, physics scores 1043, and random string sorting scores 30235.

The i9-14901TE offers no recorded wins in any benchmark category. The database shows the Intel part with an empty benchmark array and a zero average score. The AMD part's average benchmark score of 28478 places it in the 80th percentile, while the Intel part's zero average places it in the 50th percentile. The Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS shows wins across all workloads, from singlecore to multicore, from encryption to physics. The Intel Core i9-14901TE cannot claim any measured advantage because the database contains no results for it.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different manufacturers and use different process nodes. The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS uses the Zen 4 architecture with the Hawk Point codename, built on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core i9-14901TE uses the Raptor Lake architecture with the Raptor Lake-R codename, built on a 10 nm process at Intel. The AMD die size measures 178 mm² with 25,000 million transistors, while the Intel die size is 257 mm² with no transistor count listed in the database.

Core and thread configurations differ significantly. The AMD part has 6 cores and 12 threads, while the Intel part has 8 cores and 16 threads. Cache layouts also differ. The AMD processor uses 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 16 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel processor uses 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 2 MB of L2 cache per core, and 36 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel part has a larger L3 cache by 20 MB, though no benchmark data confirms how this translates into performance.

Clock speeds show a tradeoff. The AMD part has a base clock of 3.50 GHz and a boost clock of 4.90 GHz. The Intel part has a base clock of 2.30 GHz and a boost clock of 5.50 GHz. The Intel part boosts 0.60 GHz higher, but the AMD part runs a higher base clock by 1.20 GHz. Power envelopes differ as well: the AMD part has a TDP of 28, while the Intel part has a TDP of 45. The AMD part targets the mobile market segment with an AMD Socket FP7, while the Intel part targets the desktop segment with an Intel Socket 1700.

Memory support shows another divergence. The AMD part supports DDR5 memory only, with dual-channel configuration and a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel part supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory in a dual-channel configuration, but the database does not list a memory bandwidth figure for it. Both processors support ECC memory. PCIe capabilities differ: the AMD part uses Gen 4 with 20 lanes (CPU only), while the Intel part uses Gen 5 with 16 lanes (CPU only). Integrated graphics also differ, with the AMD part using Radeon 760M and the Intel part using UHD Graphics 770.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

Since the Intel Core i9-14901TE has no recorded benchmark scores, the head-to-head comparison relies entirely on the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS measurements. The database shows no head-to-head benchmark entries for these two processors, and the win counts are zero for both. However, the AMD part's individual benchmark results provide the only available performance data in this pairing.

The Cinebench R15 multicore score of 1824 and singlecore score of 257 show the AMD part's baseline rendering performance. The Cinebench R20 results scale up to 7603 multicore and 1073 singlecore. The Cinebench R23 results reach 18104 multicore and 2555 singlecore. The progression from R15 to R23 multicore shows a consistent increase in score as the workload version changes.

PassMark results cover a wide range of workloads. The multithread score of 21465 and single thread score of 3561 represent the overall throughput metrics. Data compression scores 246446, which is the highest single PassMark result for the AMD part. Data encryption scores 14962, while extended instructions score 18507. Floating point math reaches 43019, and integer math reaches 69839. Prime number finding scores 71, physics scores 1043, and random string sorting scores 30235. The average benchmark score of 28478 places the AMD part in the 80th percentile of all CPUs.

The nearest rivals for the AMD part provide context for its positioning. The Intel Xeon E-2436 has an average score of 28530 with a delta of -0.2 percent relative to the Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850HS averages 28549 with a delta of -0.2 percent. The Intel Core 5 220H averages 28574 with a delta of -0.3 percent. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850U averages 28379 with a delta of 0.3 percent. These deltas show the Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS sits within a narrow band of its closest competitors, trailing the first three by less than one percent and leading the last by less than one percent. The Intel Core i9-14901TE has no nearest rivals listed in the database.

The Verdict

The data supports a straightforward conclusion: the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS is the only processor in this comparison with measured performance. Its average benchmark score of 28478 and 80th percentile ranking come from a complete set of Cinebench and PassMark results. The Intel Core i9-14901TE has no recorded benchmarks, an average score of zero, and a 50th percentile ranking that reflects missing data rather than tested capability.

For workloads that rely on measured performance, the Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS delivers a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 18104 and a singlecore score of 2555. Its PassMark multithread score of 21465 and single thread score of 3561 provide additional reference points. The Intel part offers a higher core count of 8 versus 6, a larger L3 cache of 36 MB versus 16 MB, and a higher boost clock of 5.50 GHz versus 4.90 GHz, but none of these specifications have corresponding benchmark results in the database.

Users choosing between these two processors should look at the available measurements. The Ryzen 5 PRO 8640HS has a complete performance profile across rendering, encryption, physics, and math workloads. The i9-14901TE has architectural advantages on paper, including more cores, more threads, a larger cache, and PCIe Gen 5 support, but the database contains no evidence of how those features perform in practice. The verdict from the recorded data is clear: the AMD part has verified results, while the Intel part awaits measurement.
