AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 vs AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132 Comparison

The Verdict

The benchmark data is unambiguous: the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 wins every single head-to-head test against the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132, taking all 11 recorded comparisons. The average benchmark score for the Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 is 41208, while the Embedded P132 sits at 37804, a gap of roughly 9% in the database's composite measurement. For any workload that relies on CPU throughput, the PRO 440 is the clear pick from the recorded results.

The Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 also holds a higher percentile ranking, placing in the 87th percentile of all CPUs tracked, versus the 86th percentile for the Embedded P132. Looking at nearest rivals, the PRO 440 trades blows with Intel Core Ultra 7 356H (0% delta), Intel Core Ultra 7 366H (-0.1%), and AMD Ryzen 9 5900X (-0.4%), while the Embedded P132 sits alongside Intel Core 5 211E (-0.1%), AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 435 (0.1%), and AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 (-0.3%). The data indicates the PRO 440 is positioned in a higher performance tier, while the Embedded P132 competes in a slightly lower band.

Choosing between them depends on the deployment context. The PRO 440 is the stronger processor for sustained compute tasks, encryption, and multi-threaded workloads. The Embedded P132, with its lower L3 cache and reduced boost clock, still delivers competent single-thread and floating-point performance, but it trails in every measurable category. The PRO 440 is the default recommendation for performance-sensitive mobile systems; the Embedded P132 only makes sense where its specific embedded feature set or platform integration is required, as the raw numbers do not favor it.

Architecture Differences

Both processors share the same Gorgon Point codename and are built on TSMC's 4 nm process node, with AMD as the manufacturer. They use the same AMD Socket FP8 and belong to the same generation family, though the PRO 440 is listed under "Ryzen AI PRO 400 (Zen 5 / Zen 5c)" and the Embedded P132 under "Ryzen AI Embedded (Zen 5 / Zen 5c)". Both have 6 cores and 12 threads, with a base clock of 2.00 GHz. The PRO 440 boosts to 4.80 GHz, while the Embedded P132 tops out at 4.50 GHz, a 0.3 GHz advantage for the PRO 440.

The most significant architectural divergence is the L3 cache. The PRO 440 carries 8 MB of L3 cache, while the Embedded P132 has only 4 MB, a 4 MB shortfall that likely explains several of the performance deltas. Both chips have the same per-core L1 (80 KB) and L2 (1 MB) allocations. The PRO 440 reports a die size of 195 mm², while the Embedded P132 does not have a recorded die size. The PRO 440 also lists a part number (100-000001866), whereas the Embedded P132's part number is unknown.

Memory support is identical: DDR5 and LPDDR5X, dual-channel, with 89.6 GB/s bandwidth, and both support ECC memory. The integrated graphics are the same Radeon 840M on both parts. PCIe lanes differ slightly: the PRO 440 offers Gen 4 with 16 lanes (CPU only), while the Embedded P132 offers Gen 4 with 14 lanes (CPU only), a 2-lane reduction for the embedded variant. Both are classified as mobile market segment parts, are actively in production, and have locked multipliers. The PRO 440 has a recorded release date of 2026-01-04, and the Embedded P132 follows on 2026-03-08.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The PRO 440 dominates across all 11 head-to-head tests, with the largest margin in prime number finding. In the passmark_find_prime_numbers test, the PRO 440 scores 77 against the Embedded P132's 57, a 35.1% advantage. This is the single biggest delta in the dataset and points to a substantial integer throughput advantage, likely tied to the larger L3 cache and higher boost clock.

Data compression shows an 11.3% win for the PRO 440, scoring 256420 versus 230437. Extended instructions follow closely at 11.7%, with 18456 against 16520. The physics test (a proxy for multi-threaded game physics) yields a 9.5% lead, 1119 versus 1022. Multithread performance shows 21054 versus 19262, a 9.3% edge. Data encryption is 8.5% ahead, 12418 versus 11444. Random string sorting is 8.2% ahead, 27252 versus 25181.

Integer math is 6% higher, 65991 versus 62249. Single-thread performance is closer, but still favors the PRO 440 at 3785 versus 3713, a 1.9% margin, and the same figure appears in the singlethread test. Floating-point math is the tightest contest: 42934 versus 42248, a 1.6% lead for the PRO 440. In every test where the margin is small, the PRO 440 still wins; there is no recorded test where the Embedded P132 takes a point.

The pattern is consistent: the PRO 440's advantage grows with cache-sensitive and multi-threaded workloads, while single-thread and floating-point tasks see only modest gains. The Embedded P132 is not far behind in raw per-core efficiency, but the 4 MB L3 deficit and 0.3 GHz lower boost clock compound into measurable losses across the board.

Where Each One Wins

The PRO 440 wins every benchmark category in the database, but the size of the wins varies by workload type. For prime number finding, the 35.1% lead is decisive and indicates a strong advantage in integer-heavy, cache-dependent algorithms. Data compression (11.3%) and extended instructions (11.7%) also show large margins, making the PRO 440 the better choice for compression utilities, cryptographic workloads, and SIMD-heavy code paths. Multithread and physics tests (9.3% and 9.5%) confirm that the PRO 440 scales better across all cores, likely due to the larger L3 cache reducing memory traffic contention.

For encryption (8.5%), random string sorting (8.2%), and integer math (6%), the PRO 440 holds a solid but smaller edge. In single-thread performance (1.9%) and floating-point math (1.6%), the gap narrows considerably, meaning the Embedded P132 is not far off in lightly threaded or FPU-bound tasks. However, it never overtakes the PRO 440 in any recorded test.

The Embedded P132's only theoretical niche, based on the data, is where its embedded positioning matters: it shares the same socket, memory support, ECC capability, and Radeon 840M graphics, and it runs at the same 28 W TDP. For embedded deployments that require those platform traits and do not need peak performance, the P132 can suffice, but it sacrifices measurable throughput in every benchmark. The PRO 440 is the superior processor for any workload where compute speed is the priority, and the Embedded P132's lower L3 cache and boost clock place it a clear step behind.
