AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 vs Intel Core i7-14700F Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark comparison between the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 and the Intel Core i7-14700F is decisively one-sided. Across the eleven recorded PassMark tests, the Intel processor wins every single contest. The AMD mobile chip does not claim a single victory in any workload category.

The largest margin comes in floating point math, where the Intel Core i7-14700F scores 107005 against the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440's 42934, a 59.9% deficit for the AMD part. Integer math shows a similar pattern: Intel records 155808, AMD manages 65991, a 57.6% gap. Data encryption heavily favors Intel as well, with 30144 versus 12418, marking a 58.8% difference in favor of the desktop processor.

Multithreaded performance is a core strength for the Intel chip. The Core i7-14700F posts 41317 in the PassMark multithread test, while the Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 reaches 21054, leaving AMD 49% behind. The physics test follows the same trend, with Intel at 2455 and AMD at 1119, a 54.4% margin. Data compression shows Intel at 505885 versus AMD at 256420, a 49.3% gap.

The single-thread results are closer than any other category, though Intel still leads. The Core i7-14700F scores 4257 in the PassMark single-thread test, while the Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 records 3785, a narrower 11.1% difference. This is the only test where the two processors are within striking distance. Extended instructions favor Intel at 28564 against AMD's 18456, a 35.4% margin. Prime number finding shows Intel at 176 versus AMD at 77, a 56.2% gap. Random string sorting completes the sweep: Intel 55918, AMD 27252, a 51.3% difference.

The average benchmark score tells the broader story. The Intel Core i7-14700F holds an average score of 53620, while the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 averages 41208. The Intel chip sits at the 91st percentile among all CPUs in the database, while the AMD part sits at the 87th percentile. The nearest rivals for each processor further contextualize their standing. The AMD chip's closest competitor is the Intel Core Ultra 7 356H at 41215, essentially tied at a 0% delta. The Intel Core i7-14700F's nearest rival is the Intel Xeon 6505P at 53701, a 0.2% difference in the Xeon's favor.

Where Each One Wins

Given the complete sweep by Intel in the head-to-head PassMark tests, the use-case split is straightforward. The Intel Core i7-14700F dominates every measured workload category. Its 49% lead in multithread performance indicates strong throughput for heavily parallel tasks. The 57.6% advantage in integer math and 59.9% lead in floating point math suggest the desktop part handles computation-heavy workloads with substantial headroom over the mobile chip.

The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 does not win any of the eleven recorded benchmark tests. Its closest relative performance comes in single-threaded work, where the 11.1% gap is the smallest of any category. This suggests the Zen 5 architecture in the AMD chip provides competitive per-core efficiency, but the Intel part still holds the advantage even there.

For workloads like data compression and encryption, the Intel chip leads by roughly half in both cases. The 49.3% compression lead and 58.8% encryption lead indicate that the Core i7-14700F is better suited for storage and security-related processing. The physics test, often associated with simulation and gaming workloads, shows a 54.4% Intel advantage.

The AMD processor's market segment is mobile, and its 28 W TDP reflects that positioning. The Intel Core i7-14700F is a desktop part with a 65 W TDP. The data does not show the AMD chip winning in any test, so any use case favoring the AMD part would have to rely on factors outside the recorded benchmark suite, such as integrated graphics capability, which the Intel desktop part lacks entirely.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from fundamentally different design philosophies. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 uses the Zen 5 architecture with the Gorgon Point codename, built on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core i7-14700F uses Raptor Lake architecture with the Raptor Lake-R codename, manufactured on Intel's 10 nm process at Intel's own foundry. The die sizes reflect the different approaches: AMD's chip measures 195 mm², while Intel's measures 257 mm².

Core and thread counts differ substantially. The AMD processor has 6 cores and 12 threads. The Intel processor has 20 cores and 28 threads, reflecting its hybrid design approach. Cache hierarchies also diverge. Both processors use 80 KB of L1 cache per core, but the L2 cache differs: AMD uses 1 MB per core, while Intel uses 2 MB per core. The L3 cache shows a significant gap, with AMD offering 8 MB total and Intel providing 33 MB shared.

The process node difference is notable, with AMD's 4 nm TSMC process being more advanced than Intel's 10 nm node. However, the benchmark results indicate that Intel's larger core count and cache configuration overcome any process advantage AMD might claim. The AMD chip belongs to the Ryzen AI PRO 400 generation, combining Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. The Intel chip belongs to the Core i7 (Raptor Lake Refresh) generation.

Both processors support ECC memory, a feature typically associated with workstation and server usage. The AMD chip uses a dual-channel memory bus with 89.6 GB/s bandwidth. The Intel chip also uses a dual-channel memory bus, though the database does not record a bandwidth figure for it. The AMD processor supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X memory, while the Intel processor supports DDR4 and DDR5.

PCIe capabilities differ by generation. The AMD chip provides Gen 4 with 16 CPU lanes. The Intel chip provides Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes. This gives the Intel part a newer PCIe standard for connectivity, though the AMD part includes integrated graphics in the form of a Radeon 840M, while the Intel Core i7-14700F has no integrated graphics.

Specification Differences

The socket and platform targets separate these processors entirely. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 uses AMD Socket FP8, a mobile platform. The Intel Core i7-14700F uses Intel Socket 1700, a desktop platform. The AMD chip lists a base clock of 2.00 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz. The Intel chip lists a base clock of 2.10 GHz and a boost clock of 5.40 GHz.

Power consumption differs significantly. The AMD processor has a TDP of 28 W. The Intel processor has a TDP of 65 W. The AMD part is a mobile processor with a 6-core, 12-thread configuration. The Intel part is a desktop processor with a 20-core, 28-thread configuration. The AMD chip uses a 4 nm process from TSMC, while the Intel chip uses a 10 nm process from Intel.

Memory support is a key differentiator. The AMD chip supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X, with a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel chip supports DDR4 and DDR5, with no bandwidth figure recorded. Both support ECC memory. The AMD chip has a L3 cache of 8 MB, while the Intel chip has 33 MB shared L3 cache. L2 cache also differs: 1 MB per core on AMD versus 2 MB per core on Intel.

Integrated graphics separate the two as well. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 includes a Radeon 840M integrated GPU. The Intel Core i7-14700F has no integrated graphics, listed as N/A. The AMD part uses Gen 4 PCIe with 16 lanes, while the Intel part uses Gen 5 PCIe with 16 lanes. The release dates differ, with the AMD chip dated 2026-01-04 and the Intel chip dated 2024-01-07. The Intel part carries a launch MSRP of $359. The database records no launch MSRP for the AMD chip.

The part numbers confirm distinct product lines: the AMD chip is 100-000001866, and the Intel chip is SRN3Z. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier. The AMD chip's market segment is mobile, and the Intel chip's is desktop.
