AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX vs Intel Core i5-14401TE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows a stark contrast between the AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX and the Intel Core i5-14401TE. The AMD processor delivered a substantial average benchmark score of 60,104, placing it in the 92nd percentile of all CPUs tracked in the database. The Intel Core i5-14401TE, by contrast, has an average benchmark score of 0, which places it in the 50th percentile. This means the database contains no recorded performance scores for the Intel part, while the AMD chip has a full suite of results across multiple workloads.

The AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX recorded its strongest result in the PassMark data compression test, with a score of 363,759. This is the highest individual benchmark figure in the entire dataset for this processor. In data encryption, the chip scored 21,840, while extended instructions produced a score of 27,638. Prime number finding returned a score of 159, a relatively low figure that reflects the nature of that particular workload. Floating point math scored 61,972, integer math scored 100,328, and multithread performance reached 31,517. The physics test produced a score of 1,681, random string sorting scored 44,494, and single-thread performance was recorded at 3,879.

Since the Intel Core i5-14401TE has no benchmark scores in the database, there are no direct head-to-head comparisons available. The data instead shows what the AMD processor achieves on its own, and how it positions against other CPUs in the database. The nearest rival to the AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX is the AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX, which recorded an average score of 60,099, a delta of 0%. The Intel Core i9-14900F scored 60,008, which is 0.2% higher than the Ryzen 7 8745HX. The AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX3D scored 59,641, a delta of 0.8% below the 8745HX, while the Intel Xeon Gold 6338T scored 60,572, which is 0.8% higher. This shows the AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX sits in a tight cluster of high-end processors, with all four nearest rivals within roughly 1% of its average score.

The benchmark results for the AMD chip demonstrate balanced strength across integer and floating point workloads. Integer math at 100,328 and floating point math at 61,972 indicate solid arithmetic throughput. The multithread score of 31,517 and the single-thread score of 3,879 both contribute to the overall average of 60,104. The data compression figure of 363,759 heavily influences the average, given its magnitude relative to the other individual test scores.

Where Each One Wins

Based on the database, the AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX wins every category where measurement data exists. The Intel Core i5-14401TE has no recorded benchmark results, so no workload can be attributed to it from the data. The AMD processor shows particular strength in data compression, where its score of 363,759 dwarfs its other results. For tasks involving encryption, the chip scores 21,840, and for extended instruction sets it scores 27,638. These figures suggest the processor handles both general-purpose and specialized workloads.

The AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX also performs well in sorting and math operations. Random string sorting produced a score of 44,494, which indicates capability in data organization tasks. Prime number finding, at 159, is the weakest recorded result, but this type of workload is known to stress integer operations in a specific pattern. The physics score of 1,681 and the multithread score of 31,517 round out the performance profile.

The Intel Core i5-14401TE, with its empty benchmark array, cannot be evaluated for any specific use case based on recorded measurements. The database shows no wins for either processor in a head-to-head sense, because no comparative test data exists for the Intel part. The AMD chip's 92nd percentile ranking across all CPUs indicates it sits well above the median processor in the database, while the Intel chip's 50th percentile ranking with a zero average score reflects the absence of measurement data rather than a meaningful performance level.

Thermal design power is 55 watts for the AMD part and 45 watts for the Intel part.

The socket types are not interchangeable. The AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX uses AMD Socket FL1, while the Intel Core i5-14401TE uses Intel Socket 1700. The AMD processor has an unlocked multiplier, while the Intel processor does not. The AMD chip supports DDR5 memory only, while the Intel chip supports both DDR4 and DDR5. Memory bandwidth is listed at 83.2 GB/s for the AMD part, with no figure recorded for the Intel part. ECC memory support is absent on the AMD chip but present on the Intel chip.

PCI Express support also differs. The AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX provides Gen 5 with 28 lanes from the CPU, while the Intel Core i5-14401TE provides Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU. The integrated graphics differ as well: the AMD chip uses Radeon 610M, while the Intel chip uses UHD Graphics 730. The market segments differ, with the AMD part classified as Mobile and the Intel part as Desktop. Release dates show the AMD processor launched on 2025-04-22, while the Intel processor launched on 2024-06-30. The part numbers are 100-000001851 for AMD and Q4T4SRNJP for Intel.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX is built on Zen 4 architecture with the Dragon Range codename, belonging to the 8000 series. The Intel Core i5-14401TE uses Raptor Lake architecture with the Raptor Lake-R codename, part of the Core 14th Gen series. The manufacturing process differs substantially: the AMD chip uses a 5 nm node from TSMC, while the Intel chip uses a 10 nm node from Intel's own foundry.

Transistor counts are recorded for the AMD processor at 6,570 million, while no transistor count is listed for the Intel processor. Die sizes also differ, with the AMD chip measuring 71 mm² and the Intel chip measuring 215 mm². These figures indicate a significant difference in physical design and manufacturing approach between the two parts.

Cache structures show different layouts. The AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX has 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 32 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel Core i5-14401TE has 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 1.25 MB of L2 cache per core, and 20 MB of shared L3 cache. Neither processor has a 3D V-Cache option listed in the database. The AMD chip's larger L3 cache and smaller per-core L1 and L2 caches reflect a different cache hierarchy design compared to the Intel chip.

The memory controllers differ: the AMD chip supports only DDR5, while the Intel chip supports both DDR4 and DDR5. This suggests the Intel part is designed for broader platform compatibility, while the AMD part targets newer memory technology exclusively. The PCIe lane counts, with 28 lanes on the AMD side versus 16 on the Intel side, also indicate different platform positioning. The AMD processor's 5 nm TSMC process node and smaller die size contrast with the Intel processor's 10 nm node and larger die, which reflects the generational and architectural differences between the two designs.
