AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 vs Intel Xeon 6369P Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark data presents a one-sided contest. Across all eleven recorded PassMark comparisons, the Intel Xeon 6369P claims victory over the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440. The database shows zero wins for the AMD part, while the Intel processor takes eleven. The margins vary from a modest single-digit gap to substantial multi-40% leads, painting a clear picture of performance hierarchy.

The largest advantage for the Intel Xeon 6369P appears in prime number computation, where its score of 141 beats the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440's 77 by 45.4%. This workload is typically sensitive to raw clock speed and integer execution, and the Xeon's advantage here is decisive. Floating point math shows a similarly large gap: Intel scores 74,151 against AMD's 42,934, a delta of 42.1%. Physics simulation follows at 44.3% ahead, with Intel scoring 2,008 versus 1,119. These three tests represent the greatest performance disparities between the two processors.

The encryption and compression workloads also favor Intel substantially. Data encryption sees Intel at 17,922 versus AMD's 12,418, a 30.7% lead. Data compression shows Intel at 346,632 against AMD's 256,420, a 26% advantage. Integer math favors Intel by 34.7%, with scores of 101,013 and 65,991 respectively. The multithread score, which often serves as a broad indicator of overall throughput, gives Intel a 30.5% edge: 30,315 versus 21,054.

The closest contest appears in single-thread performance. Here the Intel Xeon 6369P scores 4,305, while the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 reaches 3,785, a 12.1% gap. Extended instructions also show a tighter margin at 19.1%, with Intel scoring 22,807 against AMD's 18,456. Random string sorting rounds out the list with Intel ahead by 26.8%, scoring 37,237 versus 27,252. While the AMD processor trails in every test, the single-thread result suggests that architectural efficiency narrows the gap when only one core is active.

Architecture Differences

The two processors represent fundamentally different design philosophies and market targets. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 is built on the Zen 5 architecture, codenamed Gorgon Point, and fabricated on a 4 nm process at TSMC. It belongs to the Ryzen AI PRO 400 generation, which combines Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. The die size measures 195 mm². This is a mobile-class processor, evidenced by its AMD Socket FP8 package and its 28 watt TDP.

The Intel Xeon 6369P, by contrast, uses the Raptor Lake architecture, specifically the Raptor Lake-R refresh, on a 10 nm Intel process. Its die size is larger at 257 mm². It targets the server and workstation segment, fitting the Intel Socket 1700. Its TDP is substantially higher at 95 watts, which aligns with its more power-hungry design and greater performance envelope.

Core counts differ notably. The AMD chip provides 6 cores and 12 threads, while the Intel chip offers 8 cores and 16 threads. Both use a dual-channel memory bus. The AMD processor supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X memory, with a measured memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel processor supports both DDR4 and DDR5, though the database does not record a bandwidth figure for it. Both support ECC memory.

Cache configurations diverge significantly. The AMD processor provides 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 8 MB of L3 cache. The Intel processor also has 80 KB of L1 per core, but doubles the L2 to 2 MB per core, and offers a much larger 24 MB of shared L3 cache. This larger cache hierarchy likely contributes to the Intel processor's advantage in data-heavy workloads.

Clock speeds also favor Intel. The Xeon 6369P has a base clock of 3.30 GHz and boosts to 5.70 GHz. The Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 has a base clock of 2.00 GHz and boosts to 4.80 GHz. The Intel processor's higher clocks, combined with its additional cores and larger cache, explain much of the benchmark gap. PCIe connectivity differs as well: the AMD chip provides Gen 4 with 16 lanes, while the Intel chip offers Gen 5 with 16 lanes. The AMD processor includes integrated Radeon 840M graphics, while the Intel Xeon has no integrated graphics. The Intel processor carries a launch MSRP of $606.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Xeon 6369P wins every measured workload, making the use-case split relatively straightforward. Its largest advantages sit in compute-heavy tasks: prime number finding, floating point math, and physics simulation all show lead margins above 42%. These workloads benefit from the Xeon's higher clock speeds, additional cores, and larger L3 cache. For users running scientific simulations, mathematical modeling, or physics-based computations, the data strongly favors the Intel part.

The Intel processor also demonstrates clear superiority in throughput-oriented tasks. Its 30.5% lead in multithread performance and 34.7% margin in integer math suggest it handles parallel workloads with greater efficiency. Data encryption and compression, which often appear in server-side or workstation tasks, show Intel ahead by 30.7% and 26% respectively. Random string sorting, a common operation in database and text processing, also favors Intel by 26.8%.

The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440, despite losing every benchmark, is not without context for its strengths. Its single-thread deficit is the smallest at 12.1%, indicating that its Zen 5 architecture provides competitive per-core efficiency. The processor's mobile market segment and 28 watt TDP suggest it targets power-constrained environments. Its integrated Radeon 840M graphics provide a feature the Xeon lacks entirely. The AMD part also comes from a newer 4 nm process, which typically offers better power efficiency per unit of work.

The Verdict

The recorded data makes the performance hierarchy unambiguous. The Intel Xeon 6369P is the faster processor in every recorded benchmark, with margins ranging from 12.1% in single-thread work to 45.4% in prime number finding. Its 8 cores, 16 threads, higher clocks, and larger cache deliver consistently superior results across compression, encryption, math, physics, and sorting workloads. The average benchmark score for the Intel part is 40,327, placing it in the 87th percentile of all CPUs. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 averages 41,208, also in the 87th percentile, though its nearest rivals include the Intel Core Ultra 7 356H and 366H, which score nearly identically.

The AMD processor's case rests on factors outside the performance metrics. It offers a lower TDP of 28 watts versus 95 watts, integrated graphics, and a mobile socket. For systems where power draw, thermals, and physical footprint are primary constraints, the Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 may be the appropriate choice despite its lower scores. The data does not indicate any workload where the AMD chip outperforms the Intel chip, however. For users who prioritize raw compute performance, the Xeon 6369P is the clear selection based on the benchmark results.
