Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 uses the Zen 5 architecture under the Strix Point codename, built on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core i5-14400T uses Raptor Lake architecture under the Raptor Lake-R codename, built on a 10 nm process at Intel. This process node difference directly contributes to the power and efficiency profiles of each chip.

The AMD processor belongs to the Ryzen AI 300 generation, which combines Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. The Intel processor is from the Core 14th Gen series, specifically the Raptor Lake Refresh generation. Both are active production parts, but they target different market segments: the AMD chip is designed for mobile platforms with an AMD Socket FP8, while the Intel chip is a desktop part using Intel Socket 1700.

Cache hierarchies differ significantly. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 has 80 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of L3 cache. The Intel Core i5-14400T also has 80 KB of L1 per core but has 1.25 MB of L2 per core and 20 MB of shared L3 cache. The larger L3 cache on Intel provides a shared pool that can benefit certain workloads, while AMD's per-core L2 allocation is smaller.

Memory support diverges as well. AMD supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X memory with a measured memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. Intel supports both DDR4 and DDR5, but the database does not record a memory bandwidth figure for it. The AMD chip does not support ECC memory, whereas Intel includes ECC support.

PCIe connectivity differs by generation and lane count. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 provides PCIe Gen 4 with 16 lanes from the CPU. The Intel Core i5-14400T provides PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU, offering a newer generation of interconnect.

Integrated graphics also differ. AMD uses the Radeon 880M, while Intel uses UHD Graphics 730. The AMD die measures 233 mm², and the Intel die measures 215 mm². The AMD chip has a TDP of 28 watts, while Intel is rated at 35 watts.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows a dominant performance profile for the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 across nearly every benchmark category. The largest margin appears in PassMark extended instructions, where AMD scores 25113 versus Intel's 14562, a 72.5% lead. This suggests AMD's instruction handling capabilities are substantially stronger for workloads that exercise extended instruction sets.

In Cinebench R15 multicore, the AMD chip delivers 2842 points against Intel's 1732, a 64.1% advantage. This represents the second-largest delta between the two processors. The single-core version of Cinebench R15 shows AMD ahead by 24.2%, scoring 303 versus 244.

PassMark integer math shows AMD at 101831 versus Intel's 65667, a 55.1% lead. Random string sorting follows a similar pattern with AMD at 39447 and Intel at 25181, a 56.7% gap. PassMark data compression gives AMD 354510 against Intel's 235636, a 50.4% advantage. These results indicate AMD's arithmetic and data handling throughput is consistently higher.

Prime number finding shows AMD scoring 117 against Intel's 73, a 60.3% difference. PassMark multithread results place AMD at 29467 versus Intel's 20223, a 45.7% lead. Data encryption shows AMD at 18297 and Intel at 13244, a 38.2% gap. Floating-point math has AMD at 62802 versus Intel's 49139, a 27.8% advantage. PassMark physics shows AMD at 1704 against Intel's 1244, a 37% lead.

The only Intel victory comes in Cinebench R23 single-core, where Intel scores 2426 and AMD scores 1992. This 17.9% advantage indicates Intel's highest-frequency single-core performance exceeds AMD's in this specific rendering test. However, in Cinebench R23 multicore, AMD recovers ground with 18698 versus Intel's 17189, an 8.8% lead.

PassMark single-thread results show AMD at 3841 versus Intel's 3512, a 9.4% advantage. This contrasts with the Cinebench R23 single-core result, showing that benchmark methodology matters. AMD leads in the aggregate PassMark single-thread test while trailing in Cinebench's single-core workload.

The Verdict

The data indicates the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 is the stronger performer in nearly every measured workload. It wins 14 of 15 head-to-head benchmarks, with particularly large margins in extended instructions, Cinebench R15 multicore, and integer math. Its average benchmark score of 40048 places it in the 87th percentile, compared to Intel's 27166 in the 79th percentile. The AMD chip also runs at a lower TDP of 28 watts versus 35 watts, which matters for mobile deployments.

The Intel Core i5-14400T holds a clear advantage in Cinebench R23 single-core, where it leads by 17.9%. This makes it relevant for applications that depend on a single high-frequency core in that specific rendering engine. Intel also offers ECC memory support and PCIe Gen 5, plus a larger L3 cache. The Intel chip has a recorded launch MSRP of $221.

For users prioritizing multicore throughput, data compression, encryption, and general floating-point or integer work, the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 delivers consistently higher scores. Its mobile socket and lower TDP suggest it fits thin-and-light systems. The Intel Core i5-14400T targets desktop builds where ECC memory and newer PCIe generation matter more than raw benchmark throughput. The recorded data supports choosing AMD for most performance-focused tasks, while Intel remains the pick for ECC requirements and the specific Cinebench R23 single-core workload where it leads.
