The Verdict

The recorded data shows two processors aimed at different segments. The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS is a mobile part on Socket FP7, built on Zen 4 architecture with a 4 nm process. The Intel Core 5 223PTE is a desktop part on Socket 1700, built on the Bartlett Lake platform with a 10 nm process.

For users prioritizing single-thread responsiveness and high base clocks, the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS has a 4.30 GHz base clock that is 2.00 GHz higher than the Intel chip’s 2.30 GHz. That substantial base clock advantage suggests the AMD part will sustain higher performance in lightly threaded workloads without relying on boost behavior.

For users who need more physical cores, the Intel Core 5 223PTE delivers 8 cores and 16 threads versus 6 cores and 12 threads on the AMD side. The Intel part also has a higher boost clock at 5.40 GHz versus 5.00 GHz, and a larger 24 MB shared L3 cache compared to 16 MB.

The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS has recorded benchmark data in the database, with an average benchmark score of 30879 and a percentile rank of 82 across all CPUs. The Intel Core 5 223PTE has no recorded benchmarks in the database, with an average score of 0 and a percentile rank of 50. This makes direct performance comparison impossible from measured results.

The Intel part is listed with a launch MSRP of $232. The AMD part has no launch MSRP recorded. Both processors are currently marked as Active in production status.

The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS sits in a competitive performance tier. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 7 8700F with an average score of 30746 (0.4% delta), the Intel Core i7-13700TE at 31028 (-0.5% delta), the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS at 31074 (-0.6% delta), and the Intel Core i7-12700F at 31081 (-0.6% delta). The Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS is effectively within half a percent of all four rivals, indicating it is positioned in a well-populated performance band.

The Intel Core 5 223PTE has no nearest rivals listed in the database, which means there is no comparative data to anchor its expected performance.

The choice depends on platform and workload profile. The AMD part is the only one with measured benchmark data, showing strong multi-threaded results. The Intel part offers more cores, a newer PCIe generation, and broader memory compatibility. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier, so overclocking is not available on either.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark entries for these two processors, and the Intel Core 5 223PTE has an empty benchmark array. The comparison must therefore rely on the AMD part’s recorded scores and architectural differences.

The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS delivers the following recorded results in Cinebench tests: 1989 in Cinebench R15 multi-core, 280 in R15 single-core, 8291 in R20 multi-core, 1170 in R20 single-core, 19742 in R23 multi-core, and 2787 in R23 single-core. These are strong numbers for a 45 W mobile processor.

PassMark results for the AMD part include 265826 in data compression, 17387 in data encryption, 21212 in extended instructions, 73 in find prime numbers, 45481 in floating point math, 72740 in integer math, 23569 in multi-thread, 1208 in physics, 35472 in random string sorting, and 3858 in single-thread. The average benchmark score across all recorded tests is 30879.

The Intel Core 5 223PTE has zero recorded benchmark scores. No Cinebench, PassMark, or any other test results exist in the database for this processor. Its average benchmark score is recorded as 0.

Because the Intel part lacks measured data, no exact delta percentages can be calculated between the two. The AMD chip’s percentile rank of 82 versus Intel’s 50 indicates the AMD part sits higher in the overall distribution of all CPUs in the database, but that rank for Intel is based on no recorded scores and should not be interpreted as a measured performance level.

The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS’s nearest rival comparisons show how tight the competition is around the 30879 average score. The AMD Ryzen 7 8700F trails by 0.4%, while the Intel Core i7-13700TE leads by 0.5%, the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS leads by 0.6%, and the Intel Core i7-12700F leads by 0.6%. All four rivals fall within a one-percent band, which suggests the Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS delivers performance nearly identical to those established desktop and mobile parts.

In the absence of Intel Core 5 223PTE benchmark data, the only quantitative comparison available is on paper. Intel’s 8-core, 16-thread configuration gives it a 33% core advantage and a 33% thread advantage over the AMD chip. Intel’s 5.40 GHz boost clock is 0.40 GHz higher than AMD’s 5.00 GHz. Intel’s 24 MB L3 cache is 50% larger than AMD’s 16 MB. AMD’s 4.30 GHz base clock is 87% higher than Intel’s 2.30 GHz base clock.

The AMD part’s recorded single-thread score of 3858 in PassMark and 2787 in Cinebench R23 indicates strong per-core performance. The Intel part has no comparable scores to place against those figures.

Specification Differences

The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS and Intel Core 5 223PTE differ across nearly every major specification field in the database.

Core and thread counts differ: AMD has 6 cores and 12 threads, Intel has 8 cores and 16 threads.

Clock speeds differ substantially. AMD’s base clock is 4.30 GHz versus Intel’s 2.30 GHz, a 2.00 GHz gap. AMD’s boost clock is 5.00 GHz versus Intel’s 5.40 GHz, a 0.40 GHz gap in Intel’s favor.

Sockets differ: AMD uses AMD Socket FP7, Intel uses Intel Socket 1700. This means the two processors are not interchangeable on any platform.

Market segments differ: the AMD part is listed as Mobile, the Intel part as Desktop.

Process nodes differ: AMD is on 4 nm at TSMC, Intel is on 10 nm at Intel.

Transistor and die size data exist only for AMD: 25,000 million transistors and 178 mm² die size. Intel has no recorded values for either field.

Cache configurations differ at every level. AMD has 64 KB L1 per core, 1 MB L2 per core, and 16 MB shared L3. Intel has 80 KB L1 per core, 2 MB L2 per core, and 24 MB shared L3.

Memory support differs: AMD supports DDR5 only, Intel supports DDR4 and DDR5. Both use dual-channel memory buses with 89.6 GB/s bandwidth. Both support ECC memory.

PCIe differs: AMD offers Gen 4 with 20 lanes (CPU only), Intel offers Gen 5 with 16 lanes (CPU only).

Integrated graphics differ: AMD has Radeon 760M, Intel has UHD Graphics 770.

Release dates differ: AMD was released on 2024-04-15, Intel on 2026-03-08.

Part numbers differ: AMD has two recorded part numbers (100-000001315 for FP7r2 and 100-000001388 for FP7), Intel has one (SA4QL).

The Intel part has a launch MSRP of $232, while the AMD part has no launch MSRP recorded.

Both processors are locked (multiplier unlocked is false for both), and both are marked as Active in production status.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS uses the Zen 4 architecture under the Hawk Point codename, part of the AMD 8000 series. The Intel Core 5 223PTE uses the Bartlett Lake codename under the Core 5 generation. Intel’s database entry does not list an architecture name.

The manufacturing process is fundamentally different. AMD uses a 4 nm process at TSMC, while Intel uses a 10 nm process at its own foundry. This process gap affects transistor density and power characteristics, though the database does not provide measured power consumption figures beyond the 45 W TDP rating shared by both parts.

AMD’s transistor count is recorded at 25,000 million on a 178 mm² die. Intel’s transistor count and die size are not recorded in the database.

Cache architecture differs at the per-core level. AMD allocates 64 KB of L1 per core and 1 MB of L2 per core, with a shared 16 MB L3 pool. Intel allocates 80 KB of L1 per core and 2 MB of L2 per core, with a shared 24 MB L3 pool. Intel’s larger per-core L1 and L2 allocations, combined with the larger L3, give it a cache capacity advantage across the board.

Memory architecture shows a split: AMD supports only DDR5, while Intel supports both DDR4 and DDR5. Both maintain dual-channel operation with identical 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth figures.

PCIe capability differs by generation and lane count. AMD provides PCIe Gen 4 with 20 lanes, Intel provides PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes. The Intel part uses a newer PCIe generation but offers fewer lanes.

Integrated graphics differ by vendor design. AMD’s Radeon 760M and Intel’s UHD Graphics 770 are both integrated solutions, but the database does not include GPU benchmark scores for either.

Both processors use different sockets: AMD Socket FP7 for the mobile Ryzen part, Intel Socket 1700 for the desktop Core part. Both are locked processors with no unlocked multiplier support.

The release timeline shows the AMD part launched on 2024-04-15, while the Intel part launched on 2026-03-08, nearly two years later. Both remain in Active production status.
