AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE vs Intel Core i5-14500 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The Intel Core i5-14500 holds every recorded benchmark advantage in this comparison. The database shows the Core i5-14500 delivering a multicore score of 15,012 in Cinebench R23, while the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE has no recorded benchmark submissions in the database at the time of analysis. This absence of recorded scores for the Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE means the head-to-head comparison is one-sided across all available tests.

In single-threaded workloads, the Core i5-14500 posts a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1,917. Geekbench results reinforce the same pattern, with the Intel part scoring 13,390 in multicore and 2,099 in single-core. PassMark results show the Core i5-14500 achieving 30,777 in multithreaded testing and 3,952 in single-thread testing. The Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE has no comparable entries in the database, leaving the Intel processor as the only part with measurable performance data.

The pattern repeats across specialized workloads. PassMark data compression shows the Core i5-14500 at 371,294, while data encryption reaches 21,457. Extended instruction testing yields 22,473, and prime number searching produces 106. Floating point math scores 79,576, and integer math reaches 108,124. Random string sorting completes at 40,980, and physics testing records 1,746. Every one of these figures belongs exclusively to the Intel Core i5-14500.

The percentile ranking separates the two clearly. The Core i5-14500 sits at the 86th percentile among all CPUs in the database, with an average benchmark score of 38,531. The Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE sits at the 50th percentile with an average benchmark score of 0. The Intel part also has a defined set of nearest rivals: the Intel Core Ultra 5 235T at 38,561 (0.1% behind), the Intel Xeon w3-2525 at 38,392 (0.4% ahead), the Intel Core 9 270H at 38,335 (0.5% ahead), and the Intel Core Ultra 9 285H at 38,312 (0.6% ahead). These close margins place the Core i5-14500 in a tightly contested performance band, but the Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE has no nearest rival data attached to its record.

The Verdict

The data supports only one conclusion: the Intel Core i5-14500 is the functionally superior processor in this pairing, based strictly on recorded measurements. It outperforms the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE in every category where the database contains a score, and the AMD part has zero recorded benchmark results to counterbalance that evidence.

The Core i5-14500 delivers a 2.6x advantage in core count, with 14 cores against 6, and a 1.67x advantage in thread count, with 20 threads against 12. Its boost clock of 5.00 GHz exceeds the AMD part's 4.80 GHz, and its base clock of 2.60 GHz beats the AMD part's 2.00 GHz. The Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE does hold advantages in process node (4 nm versus 10 nm), TDP (35 W versus 65 W), and memory bandwidth (89.6 GB/s versus no recorded figure for Intel), but none of these translate into benchmark wins in the recorded data.

The percentile gap is substantial. The Core i5-14500 ranks at the 86th percentile among all CPUs, while the Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE ranks at the 50th percentile. The Intel part's average benchmark score of 38,531 stands against a recorded average of 0 for the AMD part. This means the Intel processor is the choice for any workload that depends on measured performance, while the AMD processor's case rests entirely on architecture and efficiency specifications rather than empirical results.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from fundamentally different design families. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE uses the Gorgon Point codename and belongs to the Ryzen AI PRO 400 generation built on a mix of Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. The Intel Core i5-14500 uses the Raptor Lake-R codename with Raptor Lake architecture, part of the Core 14th Gen series and the Raptor Lake Refresh generation.

Manufacturing processes differ sharply. The AMD part is built on a 4 nm process at TSMC, while the Intel part uses a 10 nm process at Intel. Die sizes are close, with the AMD processor at 195 mm² and the Intel processor at 215 mm². The AMD part uses 6 cores and 12 threads, while the Intel part uses 14 cores and 20 threads, reflecting Intel's hybrid approach with performance and efficiency cores.

Cache hierarchies diverge in the L2 and L3 levels. Both parts use 80 KB of L1 cache per core. The AMD processor carries 1 MB of L2 per core, while the Intel processor carries 1.25 MB per core. The L3 cache differs substantially: the AMD part has 8 MB total, while the Intel part has 24 MB shared. This gives the Intel processor a 3x advantage in L3 capacity.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core i5-14500 wins every measured performance category in the database. Its Cinebench R15 multicore score of 2,435 and single-core score of 273, Cinebench R20 multicore score of 10,985 and single-core score of 1,550, and Cinebench R23 results of 15,012 multicore and 1,917 single-core all represent recorded wins. Geekbench results confirm the advantage with 13,390 multicore and 2,099 single-core. PassMark results across all nine recorded tests also favor the Intel part. The Core i5-14500's 14 cores and 20 threads, 24 MB of shared L3 cache, and 5.00 GHz boost clock provide the structural basis for these wins.

The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE wins on efficiency metrics and platform specifications, though not on recorded benchmarks. Its 35 W TDP is nearly half the Intel part's 65 W TDP, making it the lower-power option. Its 4 nm TSMC process node is more advanced than Intel's 10 nm node. Its 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth is the only recorded bandwidth figure in the comparison. Its 195 mm² die size is smaller than the Intel part's 215 mm². The AMD processor also uses AMD Socket AM5 with Gen 4 PCIe at 12 lanes, while the Intel part uses Intel Socket 1700 with Gen 5 PCIe at 16 lanes.

In practical terms, the Intel Core i5-14500 is the processor with demonstrable performance data across rendering, encryption, compression, math, and sorting workloads. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440GE offers architectural advantages in power efficiency and manufacturing process, but the database contains no benchmark evidence of its performance capabilities. The 50th percentile ranking for the AMD part, against the 86th percentile for the Intel part, reinforces the performance gap even before individual test scores are considered.
