Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The largest margins of victory for the Intel Core i9-14901E appear in workloads that stress raw compute throughput. In the PassMark physics test, the Intel chip scores 3041 against 841 for the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE, a delta of -72.3%. This suggests the Intel processor’s higher sustained clock rates translate directly into simulation and physics engine performance. Similarly, the PassMark find prime numbers test shows a score of 189 for Intel versus 50 for AMD, a delta of -73.5%, indicating a substantial advantage in integer-heavy algorithmic loops.

Floating-point math also favors Intel heavily. The PassMark floating point math score for the Core i9-14901E is 81089, while the Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE records 46589, a delta of -42.5%. This gap points to a significant difference in vector and floating-point execution capabilities. In integer math, Intel leads with 112736 against 84004, a delta of -25.5%. Multithreaded performance across the board follows the same pattern: the PassMark multithread score is 30298 for Intel versus 20870 for AMD, a delta of -31.1%.

The Cinebench suite shows consistent deltas of roughly -31% in favor of Intel across all versions and core counts. In Cinebench R23 multicore, Intel scores 25753 against 17759 for AMD, a delta of -31%. Single-core Cinebench R23 shows Intel at 3635 versus 2507, also a delta of -31%. Cinebench R20 multicore and single-core replicate this pattern with scores of 10816 versus 7458 and 1526 versus 1052, respectively, each with a delta of -31%. Cinebench R15 multicore and single-core follow with Intel at 2595 and 366 against AMD at 1789 and 252, both at -31.1%.

The narrower margins appear in data and instruction-heavy tasks. PassMark data compression shows Intel at 288777 versus 252937 for AMD, a delta of -12.4%. Data encryption is closer still, with Intel at 18571 and AMD at 16937, a delta of -8.8%. The smallest gap is in extended instructions, where Intel scores 17249 and AMD 17029, a delta of only -1.3%. Random string sorting shows Intel ahead at 39138 versus 27373, a delta of -30.1%. Finally, PassMark single thread confirms the single-core lead, with Intel at 4354 and AMD at 3353, a delta of -23%.

Architecture Differences

The two processors use fundamentally different silicon designs. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE is built on the Zen 3 architecture with the Cezanne codename, part of the 5000 series. It is manufactured on a 7 nm process at TSMC, with 10,700 million transistors on a 180 mm² die. The Intel Core i9-14901E uses the Raptor Lake architecture with the Raptor Lake-R codename, part of the Core 14th Gen series. It is built on a 10 nm process at Intel, with a die size of 257 mm²; the database does not record a transistor count for this part.

Cache layouts differ substantially. The AMD processor provides 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of L3 cache. The Intel processor provides 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 36 MB of shared L3 cache. The larger per-core L2 and shared L3 on the Intel chip likely contribute to its advantage in cache-sensitive workloads like the PassMark data compression and random string sorting tests.

Clock speeds also separate the two. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE has a base clock of 3.20 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. The Intel Core i9-14901E runs at a base clock of 2.80 GHz but boosts to 5.60 GHz. The higher boost ceiling on the Intel part explains its single-core dominance in Cinebench and PassMark single-thread tests. Power envelopes differ as well, with the AMD chip rated at 35 W TDP and the Intel chip at 65 W TDP.

Memory support splits the pair. The AMD processor supports DDR4 memory on a dual-channel bus, with a recorded memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s. The Intel processor supports both DDR4 and DDR5 on a dual-channel bus, though the database does not list a memory bandwidth figure for it. ECC memory support also differs: the Intel Core i9-14901E supports ECC memory, while the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE does not. PCIe connectivity is another dividing line, with AMD providing Gen 3 with 16 CPU lanes and Intel providing Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes. Integrated graphics differ as well, with AMD using Radeon Vega 8 and Intel using UHD Graphics 770.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core i9-14901E wins every recorded benchmark, so the use-case split is defined by the magnitude of its advantage rather than by any AMD victory. In physics and prime number finding, the Intel chip leads by deltas of -72.3% and -73.5%, respectively, making it the clear choice for workloads dominated by tight loops and simulation math. Floating-point math shows a -42.5% delta, reinforcing Intel’s strength in scientific and analytical compute tasks.

Multithreaded rendering and content creation workloads also favor Intel. Cinebench R23 multicore shows a delta of -31%, with Intel at 25753 versus 17759 for AMD. The PassMark multithread test shows a delta of -31.1%, with Intel at 30298 versus 20870. These results indicate that the Intel processor delivers substantially higher throughput in heavily parallel tasks like 3D rendering and video encoding.

The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE’s narrowest losses appear in data encryption and extended instructions. In data encryption, the delta is -8.8%, with Intel at 18571 and AMD at 16937. In extended instructions, the delta is only -1.3%, with Intel at 17249 and AMD at 17029. These are the closest results in the head-to-head set, suggesting the AMD chip is comparatively competitive in workloads that rely on specialized instruction sets or encryption routines.

Single-thread performance favors Intel across the board. PassMark single thread shows Intel at 4354 versus AMD at 3353, a delta of -23%. Cinebench R23 single-core shows a delta of -31%, with Intel at 3635 and AMD at 2507. The Intel processor’s 5.60 GHz boost clock, compared to 4.60 GHz for AMD, aligns with these single-core results. For applications that depend on per-thread responsiveness, the data points to the Intel chip.

The AMD processor does hold advantages in platform characteristics outside raw benchmark scores. Its 35 W TDP is lower than the Intel part’s 65 W TDP, and its smaller 180 mm² die with 7 nm process node suggests a more power-efficient footprint. The database records no benchmark win for the AMD chip, but its lower power envelope and smaller physical size may factor into system-level design decisions where thermal and space constraints are primary.
