AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS vs AMD Ryzen Embedded 9700X Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains benchmark results for the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS, but no recorded measurements for the AMD Ryzen Embedded 9700X. The head-to-head comparison is therefore one-sided: the 8845HS has 17 recorded benchmark scores, while the 9700X has none. Without a recorded score for the 9700X in any test, the data cannot show a single direct win for either processor.

The 8845HS produces strong numbers across both single-thread and multi-thread workloads. In Cinebench R23, it scores 24565 multi-core and 3468 single-core. The single-core result places it ahead of much of the mobile field, as does its PassMark single-thread score of 3762. The PassMark multithread score of 28572 and the integer math score of 97625 both indicate a capable 8-core, 16-thread part. The floating point math score of 58965 and the extended instructions score of 25434 round out the compute picture. Data compression reaches 343952, while data encryption reaches 20487, random string sorting 41867, and find prime numbers 87.

For the 9700X, the database shows an average benchmark score of 0 and a percentile ranking of 50, which reflects the absence of recorded measurements rather than a real performance estimate. The 8845HS, by contrast, holds an average benchmark score of 39325 and a percentile rank of 86. Its nearest rivals in the database are the AMD EPYC 4245P at 39215 and 0.3% below the 8845HS, the AMD Ryzen AI 7 450 at 39485 and 0.4% above, the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8840HS at 39603 and 0.7% above, and the Intel Core i7-13700F at 39009 and 0.8% below. These deltas place the 8845HS in a tightly packed performance band where the top-to-bottom spread among four rivals is only about 1.5%.

Because the 9700X has no benchmark entries, the head-to-head section cannot report exact wins or losses. The available data only permits a comparison of specifications and architecture, plus a statement that the 8845HS has measured scores while the 9700X does not.

Architecture Differences

Both processors use 8 cores and 16 threads, a 4 nm TSMC process node, DDR5 memory support, dual-channel memory buses, and an 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth. Both support ECC memory. The similarities end there.

The 8845HS uses the Zen 4 architecture with the Hawk Point codename and belongs to the 8000 series. It has a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 5.10 GHz. Its L1 cache is 64 KB per core, L2 cache is 1 MB per core, and L3 cache is 16 MB shared. The die size is 178 mm² with 25,000 million transistors. It uses a 45 W TDP, fits the AMD Socket FP7, and includes the Radeon 780M integrated graphics. PCIe support is Gen 4 with 20 lanes (CPU only). The multiplier is locked. The part numbers are 100-000001316 (FP7r2) and 100-000001387 (FP7). The release date is recorded as 2024-04-15.

The 9700X uses the Zen 5 architecture with the Granite Ridge codename and belongs to the 9000 series. It has a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 5.50 GHz. Its L1 cache is 80 KB per core, L2 cache is 1 MB per core, and L3 cache is 32 MB shared. The die size is 70.6 mm² with 8,315 million transistors. It uses a 65 W TDP, fits the AMD Socket AM5, and includes Radeon Graphics (no specific model number given). PCIe support is Gen 5 with 24 lanes (CPU only). The multiplier is unlocked. The part number is 100-000001404E. The release date is recorded as 2025-10-06.

The architectural differences are substantial. Zen 5 brings a larger L1 cache per core (80 KB versus 64 KB) and double the shared L3 cache (32 MB versus 16 MB). The 9700X boosts 400 MHz higher than the 8845HS. The 9700X uses a smaller die with fewer transistors, which reflects the denser Zen 5 design. The 9700X also draws 20 W more TDP, which is consistent with its higher boost clock and desktop socket. The 8845HS, as a mobile part, uses a laptop-oriented socket and a lower power envelope.

The 9700X is marked for the Desktop market segment and has an unlocked multiplier, while the 8845HS is a Mobile part with a locked multiplier. The 9700X provides Gen 5 PCIe with 24 lanes versus Gen 4 with 20 lanes on the 8845HS. The integrated graphics differ in naming, with the 8845HS carrying the Radeon 780M and the 9700X carrying only the generic Radeon Graphics label.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS wins in measured performance data. It has a full set of 17 recorded benchmarks, an average benchmark score of 39325, and a percentile rank of 86 among all CPUs. The closest rival, the AMD Ryzen AI 7 450, sits only 0.4% higher, and the Intel Core i7-13700F sits 0.8% lower. This means the 8845HS is placed in a compact competitive band where small percentage differences separate neighbors. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 24565 and single-core score of 3468 give it a solid basis for evaluating productivity workloads. Its PassMark compression score of 343952 and encryption score of 20487 indicate strong data-handling capability.

The AMD Ryzen Embedded 9700X wins on architectural features. It has a higher boost clock of 5.50 GHz versus 5.10 GHz, double the L3 cache at 32 MB versus 16 MB, and a larger L1 cache at 80 KB per core versus 64 KB. It supports PCIe Gen 5 with 24 lanes versus Gen 4 with 20 lanes. It has an unlocked multiplier, which the 8845HS lacks. It uses the newer Zen 5 architecture. It is also a desktop part on Socket AM5, whereas the 8845HS is a mobile part on Socket FP7. The 9700X uses a 65 W TDP, 20 W higher than the 8845HS, which reflects its desktop positioning.

The 8845HS is the only one of the two with database benchmark scores. Any use-case assessment for the 9700X must rely on its specification advantages rather than measured results. The 8845HS has demonstrated performance data for multi-threaded rendering, single-thread responsiveness, and integer and floating point math. The 9700X offers the architectural headroom of Zen 5, a higher boost clock, more cache, and a more capable PCIe interface, but the database cannot quantify how those translate into benchmark wins.

The Verdict

The data supports two distinct conclusions. For anyone who needs measured performance, the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS is the only option with recorded results. It sits at the 86th percentile of all CPUs, with an average score of 39325, and its nearest rivals fall within roughly 1.5% of it. The Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 24565 and single-core score of 3468, along with the PassMark multithread score of 28572, give it a verified performance profile.

For anyone prioritizing the newer architecture and platform features, the AMD Ryzen Embedded 9700X is the specification leader. It has Zen 5, a 5.50 GHz boost clock, 32 MB L3 cache, PCIe Gen 5 with 24 lanes, an unlocked multiplier, and a desktop Socket AM5 platform. The 20 W TDP increase over the 8845HS is consistent with that desktop positioning.

The choice depends entirely on whether measured results or architectural capabilities matter more. The 8845HS delivers proven scores across rendering, math, and data workloads. The 9700X offers the newer design and higher headroom, but the database contains no benchmark entries to confirm its real-world standing. The 8845HS is the verified performer; the 9700X is the architectural upgrade waiting for measurement.
