Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 uses the Zen 5 architecture, carries the Gorgon Point codename, and belongs to the Ryzen AI 400 generation with Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. The Intel Processor N150 uses the Twin Lake architecture, carries the Twin Lake codename, and belongs to the Intel Processor generation based on Alder Lake-N. The AMD part is built on a 4 nm TSMC process with a 233 mm² die. The Intel part is built on a 10 nm Intel process, and the database lists no die size for it.

The AMD part pairs 12 cores with 24 threads, while the Intel part pairs 4 cores with 4 threads. Cache organization also differs. The AMD part uses 80 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of L3. The Intel part uses 96 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of shared L2, and 6 MB of shared L3. Both processors integrate graphics: the AMD Radeon 890M in the Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 and the Intel UHD Graphics 730 in the N150. The AMD part uses the AMD Socket FP8, while the Intel part uses Intel BGA 1264.

The Verdict

The data indicates that the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 is the higher-performance processor in every measured workload. Its 806.8% multi-core advantage in Cinebench R23 and 121% single-core advantage in the same test are decisive. The Intel Processor N150 does not win any head-to-head benchmark, and its average score of 1025 places it far below the AMD part's 58826. The AMD part's average score also places it near the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 9645, which records 58916, and the Intel Xeon w5-2545, which records 58504.

The Intel part's 6 TDP is the lowest power figure in the comparison, against 28 TDP for the AMD part, and it is the only one of the two to support DDR4 memory. For performance-sensitive use cases, the recorded data points to the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470. For minimum power draw, the Intel Processor N150 is the part with the lower TDP, but that specification advantage does not produce a benchmark win in the database.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 wins every benchmark category recorded in the head-to-head data: Cinebench R15 multi-core, Cinebench R15 single-core, Cinebench R23 multi-core, and Cinebench R23 single-core. The Intel Processor N150 wins none of those tests. The AMD part also holds the higher average score, 58826 versus 1025, and the higher percentile rank, 92 versus 28.

The Intel part's only recorded win is outside the benchmark suite: the power comparison, with a 6 TDP against 28 TDP. It also supports DDR4 memory, which the AMD part does not. Those features point to a low-power platform role, while the AMD part takes every measured performance category.
