AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE vs Intel Core i7-14701TE Comparison

The Verdict

The recorded data positions the Intel Core i7-14701TE as the clear performance leader between these two desktop processors. The Intel part sits at the 78th percentile among all CPUs in the database, while the AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE sits at the 50th percentile. Benchmark results confirm this gap: the Core i7-14701TE posts an average benchmark score of 26013, and its closest rivals, such as the AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 at 25981, trail by only 0.1%. The Ryzen AI 5 440GE has no recorded benchmark scores or average score in the database, so its placement rests on its architectural profile rather than direct measurements.

The Intel Core i7-14701TE is the pick for any workload that benefits from more cores, a larger shared cache, and higher clock speeds. It offers 8 cores and 16 threads against the AMD's 6 cores and 12 threads, a 5.20 GHz boost clock against 4.80 GHz, and 33 MB of shared L3 cache against 8 MB. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE counters with a smaller 35 W TDP against Intel's 45 W, a 4 nm process from TSMC against Intel's 10 nm node, and a newer release date of February 2026 against Intel's June 2024 launch. For users prioritizing efficiency and a modern socket, the AMD part has a structural argument; for raw throughput, the Intel part wins on every measurable specification that matters.

Architecture Differences

The two processors diverge sharply in manufacturing and design. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE uses a 4 nm process fabricated by TSMC, with a die size of 195 mm². Its codename is Gorgon Point, and it belongs to the Ryzen AI 400 generation built on Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. The Intel Core i7-14701TE uses a 10 nm process from Intel's own fabs, with a die size of 257 mm². Its architecture is Raptor Lake, specifically Raptor Lake-R, part of the Core 14th Gen family under the Raptor Lake Refresh generation.

Core counts differ significantly. The AMD chip supplies 6 cores and 12 threads, while the Intel chip provides 8 cores and 16 threads. Cache hierarchies also diverge. Both parts use 80 KB of L1 cache per core, but the AMD part allocates 1 MB of L2 per core, while the Intel part doubles that to 2 MB per core. The L3 cache gap is the largest architectural divide: 8 MB total on the AMD versus 33 MB shared on the Intel. That 25 MB difference in last-level cache gives the Intel part a substantial advantage in workloads that repeatedly access large datasets.

Memory and I/O support differ as well. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE supports only DDR5 memory on a dual-channel bus with a rated bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel Core i7-14701TE supports both DDR4 and DDR5 on a dual-channel bus, and the database records no specific bandwidth figure for it. Both support ECC memory. On the PCIe front, the AMD part uses Gen 4 with 12 lanes from the CPU, while the Intel part uses Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU. That gives Intel a two-generation lead in PCIe bandwidth and four additional lanes for expansion.

Integrated graphics also differ. The AMD chip carries a Radeon 840M, while the Intel chip carries UHD Graphics 770. The AMD socket is AM5, while the Intel socket is LGA 1700. The AMD multiplier is unlocked, allowing overclocking; the Intel multiplier is locked. The AMD part's production status is active, as is the Intel part's, and both are desktop market segments.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

Direct head-to-head benchmark data between the AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE and the Intel Core i7-14701TE is absent from the database, with no recorded wins for either side. However, the Intel Core i7-14701TE has a full set of individual benchmark scores, and its nearest rivals provide context for its standing. Its average benchmark score of 26013 places it narrowly ahead of the AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 at 25981, a delta of 0.1%, and slightly behind the AMD Ryzen 5 8640HS at 26106, a delta of -0.4%. Against the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 5655GE at 25880, the Intel part leads by 0.5%, and against the AMD Ryzen 5 8540U at 26187, it trails by 0.7%.

Looking at the Intel part's individual scores, its Cinebench R23 multicore result of 17035 and single-core result of 2405 indicate a balanced performance profile. The Cinebench R20 multicore score of 7154 and single-core score of 1010 reinforce that pattern, as does the Cinebench R15 multicore score of 1716 and single-core score of 242. PassMark results show strength in integer math at 65792, floating-point math at 50219, and multithread performance at 20042. Data compression scores 220520, data encryption scores 11699, and extended instructions score 14354. Single-thread performance in PassMark records 2637, physics scores 1860, and random string sorting scores 22760. Find prime numbers scores 143.

Because the AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE has no recorded benchmark scores, the database cannot provide a direct numerical comparison. The Intel part's percentile of 78 against the AMD's 50, combined with its higher core count, higher boost clock, and larger cache, indicates that the Intel part would dominate multicore and cache-sensitive workloads. The AMD part's only recorded advantages are efficiency-oriented: a 35 W TDP versus 45 W, a smaller process node, and a newer generation.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core i7-14701TE wins on raw compute capability. Its 8 cores and 16 threads outnumber the AMD's 6 cores and 12 threads, and its 5.20 GHz boost clock exceeds the AMD's 4.80 GHz. The 33 MB shared L3 cache gives it a clear edge in workloads that benefit from large, fast caches, such as data compression, encryption, and extended instruction processing. Its PassMark scores in data compression at 220520, data encryption at 11699, and extended instructions at 14354 show a processor built for sustained throughput. The Gen 5 PCIe interface with 16 lanes also wins for users who need high-bandwidth expansion, such as modern GPUs or NVMe storage.

The AMD Ryzen AI 5 440GE wins on efficiency and platform modernity. Its 35 W TDP is lower than Intel's 45 W, and its 4 nm TSMC process is more advanced than Intel's 10 nm node. The AM5 socket represents a newer platform generation, and the unlocked multiplier allows overclocking, which the locked Intel part cannot do. The AMD part also supports DDR5 only with a rated memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s, while the Intel part's memory bandwidth is unrecorded. For builds where power draw and platform longevity matter more than peak multicore output, the AMD part has the structural advantage. Its Radeon 840M integrated graphics may also offer different capabilities than Intel's UHD Graphics 770, though no benchmark data confirms which is faster.

The database's percentile data reinforces the split. The Intel part's 78th percentile among all CPUs versus the AMD's 50th percentile indicates that the Intel part belongs in a higher performance tier overall. The AMD part's lack of recorded benchmark scores means its real-world standing cannot be confirmed, but its efficiency metrics and newer fabrication process make it a reasonable choice for low-power desktop systems.
