AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS vs Intel Core i9-14901TE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results between the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS and the Intel Core i9-14901TE. The head-to-head comparison field is empty, with zero recorded wins for either processor. This means any direct performance comparison must be inferred from the available benchmark scores for the AMD part and the architectural specifications of the Intel part.

The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS has a comprehensive set of benchmark scores recorded. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score is 19742, while its single-core score is 2787. In Cinebench R20, the multi-core result is 8291 and the single-core result is 1170. The older Cinebench R15 tests show a multi-core score of 1989 and a single-core score of 280. PassMark results include a multi-thread score of 23569, a single-thread score of 3858, integer math at 72740, floating-point math at 45481, data compression at 265826, data encryption at 17387, extended instructions at 21212, physics at 1208, random string sorting at 35472, and prime number finding at 73.

The Intel Core i9-14901TE has no benchmark scores recorded in the database. Its average benchmark score is listed as 0, and its percentile against all CPUs is 50, which likely reflects the lack of measured data rather than actual performance. The AMD part, by contrast, sits at the 82nd percentile against all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 30879.

Because the Intel part lacks recorded scores, the head-to-head analysis cannot provide exact deltas. The data instead shows what the AMD processor achieves in absolute terms, and the Intel processor's specifications must be interpreted qualitatively.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different manufacturers and use fundamentally different architectures. The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS is built on the Zen 4 architecture, with the codename Hawk Point, and belongs to the Ryzen 5 generation within the 8000 series. It uses a 4 nm process node from TSMC, with 25,000 million transistors on a 178 mm² die. The Intel Core i9-14901TE is based on Raptor Lake architecture, specifically Raptor Lake-R, and belongs to the Core 14th Gen series. It uses a 10 nm process node from Intel, with a die size of 257 mm².

Core counts differ. The AMD processor has 6 cores and 12 threads, while the Intel processor has 8 cores and 16 threads. The Intel part offers two additional cores and four additional threads. This suggests a potential advantage in multi-threaded workloads, though the AMD part's higher base clock of 4.30 GHz versus Intel's 2.30 GHz may offset some of that advantage. The boost clocks are closer: AMD boosts to 5.00 GHz, while Intel boosts to 5.50 GHz, giving Intel a 0.50 GHz higher peak.

Cache layouts differ substantially. The AMD processor has 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 16 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel processor has 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 more cache at every level, with the L3 cache more than doubling the AMD part's capacity.

Memory support also differs. Both support dual-channel memory, and both support ECC memory. However, the AMD processor only supports DDR5 memory, with a recorded memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel processor supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, but no memory bandwidth figure is recorded in the database. PCIe connectivity differs as well: the AMD part uses Gen 4 with 20 lanes from the CPU, while the Intel part uses Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU.

Integrated graphics differ. The AMD processor includes Radeon 760M graphics, while the Intel processor includes UHD Graphics 770. The market segments differ: the AMD part is classified as Mobile, while the Intel part is classified as Desktop. Sockets differ: AMD uses Socket FP7, while Intel uses Socket 1700.

The process node difference is notable. The AMD part's 4 nm TSMC process is smaller than Intel's 10 nm process, which typically implies better power efficiency per transistor. However, the Intel part's larger die and higher core count may compensate in raw throughput.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS, with its recorded benchmark scores, shows strengths in several PassMark categories. Its multi-thread score of 23569 and single-thread score of 3858 indicate balanced performance. The data compression score of 265826 is the highest recorded PassMark result for this processor, suggesting strong throughput in compression workloads. Floating-point math at 45481 and integer math at 72740 point to solid computational capability. The Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 19742 and single-core score of 2787 provide a reference for rendering and general CPU tasks.

The Intel Core i9-14901TE, despite having no recorded benchmark scores, has architectural advantages that suggest where it might win. Its 8 cores and 16 threads versus the AMD part's 6 cores and 12 threads gives it a theoretical edge in heavily parallel workloads. The larger L3 cache of 36 MB versus 16 MB could improve performance in cache-sensitive applications. The higher boost clock of 5.50 GHz versus 5.00 GHz suggests an advantage in bursty single-threaded tasks. The PCIe Gen 5 support with 16 lanes offers newer connectivity compared to the AMD part's Gen 4 with 20 lanes. The Intel part's support for both DDR4 and DDR5 memory provides flexibility in memory selection, while the AMD part is limited to DDR5.

The AMD processor, being classified as Mobile, is designed for portable systems. The Intel processor, classified as Desktop, targets stationary systems. The AMD part's 4 nm process from TSMC is smaller than Intel's 10 nm process, which typically implies better power efficiency.

The Verdict

The data shows a clear split. For users who prioritize raw core counts and cache capacity, the Intel Core i9-14901TE offers 8 cores, 16 threads, and 36 MB of L3 cache, which are all higher than the AMD part's 6 cores, 12 threads, and 16 MB of L3 cache. The Intel part also supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, while the AMD part supports only DDR5. The Intel part's PCIe Gen 5 connectivity is newer than the AMD part's Gen 4.

For users who prioritize clock speeds and process efficiency, the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8645HS has a base clock of 4.30 GHz, which is 2.00 GHz higher than the Intel part's 2.30 GHz base clock. The AMD part's 4 nm process node is smaller than Intel's 10 nm node. The AMD part has recorded benchmark scores showing an average benchmark score of 30879 and an 82nd percentile ranking against all CPUs, while the Intel part has no recorded scores and sits at the 50th percentile due to lack of data.

The AMD processor's benchmark data confirms its capability in single-threaded and multi-threaded tasks. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 19742 and single-core score of 2787 are strong figures for a 45 W mobile processor. The Intel processor, with no measured scores, cannot be directly compared on the same benchmarks.

The market segments differ: the AMD part is for mobile systems, the Intel part is for desktop systems. Users building a desktop system with flexibility for DDR4 or DDR5 memory and needing more cores would look to the Intel part. Users needing a mobile processor with a higher base clock and a smaller process node would look to the AMD part. The choice depends on the system form factor and workload priorities, as the recorded data only provides full performance evidence for the AMD part.
