Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The head-to-head benchmark field in the database is empty, so there are no direct paired measurements between the AMD Ryzen AI 5 435 and the Intel Core 7 150HL. The analysis must therefore use the AMD part's recorded scores and the Intel part's specifications.

The AMD Ryzen AI 5 435 delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 11333 and a single-core score of 1816. The Cinebench R15 results are 1686 multi-core and 260 single-core. In PassMark tests, the highest recorded score is data compression at 225374, followed by integer math at 61026, floating point math at 40627, random string sorting at 24891, extended instructions at 16197, and data encryption at 11110. The multi-thread score is 19000, and the single-thread score is 3734. The physics score is 1075, and find prime numbers is 58.

The Intel Core 7 150HL has no scores to compare against these numbers. The specification data suggests where the Intel part would likely dominate: 14 cores versus 6, 20 threads versus 12, a 5.00 GHz boost clock versus 4.50 GHz, and 24 MB of L3 cache versus 4 MB. For multi-threaded rendering or compilation workloads, the core and thread advantage typically translates into proportionally higher throughput, but the database does not provide the measured result.

For single-threaded performance, the Intel part's 5.00 GHz boost clock is 0.50 GHz higher than the AMD part's 4.50 GHz boost clock. The AMD part's Zen 5 architecture at 4 nm may offset some of that clock disadvantage through instructions per clock, but again, no measured data exists for the Intel part.

The nearest rivals for the AMD Ryzen AI 5 435 provide context for its scores. The Intel Core i5-13490F has an average score of 28185, which is 0.2% higher than the AMD part. The Intel Core i5-14500T has an average score of 28065, which is 0.2% lower. The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8500GE has an average score of 28054, which is 0.3% lower. The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 5655G also has an average score of 28032, which is 0.3% lower. These deltas are all within 0.3%, placing the Ryzen AI 5 435 in a tight cluster with these four rivals.

The AMD part's percentile of 80 means it sits above the median CPU in the database. The Intel Core 7 150HL holds a percentile of 50, but that figure is not tied to any benchmark scores, so its meaning is limited to the database's classification.

The Verdict

The database contains a full set of benchmark results for the AMD Ryzen AI 5 435, with an average score of 28128 and an 80th percentile ranking. The Intel Core 7 150HL has no benchmark results, so its performance cannot be verified from measurements. Any selection between these two processors must account for that asymmetry.

For users focused on measured performance, the AMD Ryzen AI 5 435 is the only option with recorded data. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 11333 and single-core score of 1816 place it in a competitive position against its nearest rivals, all of which sit within 0.3% of its average score. Its PassMark single-thread score of 3734 and multi-thread score of 19000 provide concrete reference points.

For users focused on core count and raw specifications, the Intel Core 7 150HL offers 14 cores, 20 threads, a 5.00 GHz boost clock, and 24 MB of L3 cache. These figures exceed the AMD part on every one of those fields. The Intel part also has a higher TDP at 45 W, which allows more sustained power delivery, but no benchmark data confirms how that translates into performance.

The AMD part wins on efficiency-oriented specifications: 4 nm process, 28 W TDP, 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth, ECC support, and 14 PCIe Gen 4 lanes. The Intel part wins on compute-oriented specifications: more cores, more threads, higher clocks, and more L3 cache.

The market segments differ: AMD is classified as Mobile, Intel as Desktop. The sockets are incompatible: AMD Socket FP8 versus Intel Socket 1700. The release dates differ by roughly two years, with the Intel part appearing in 2024 and the AMD part in 2026.

The data shows that the AMD Ryzen AI 5 435 is a measured, competitive mobile processor with a defined performance profile. The Intel Core 7 150HL is a specification-heavy desktop processor whose performance is unverified in the database. The choice depends on whether the user prioritizes the verified mobile performance of the AMD part or the higher core count and clock speeds of the Intel part, with the caveat that the Intel part's actual benchmark results are not recorded.
