AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475 vs Intel Core 7 360 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The direct comparison data for these two mobile processors is limited, but the recorded measurements for the Intel Core 7 360 provide a clear reference point. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475 has no individual benchmark scores in the database, so the analysis relies on architectural specifications and the Intel part's measured performance across multiple test suites.

The Intel Core 7 360 shows its strongest result in Cinebench R23 multi-core with a score of 13,634 points. This places it above the Intel Core i3-13100, which has an average score of 18,380, though the delta is 0% meaning the performance gap is negligible in the database's comparative ranking. The single-core Cinebench R23 result of 1,924 points suggests moderate per-thread capability, while the R20 single-core score of 808 and R15 single-core score of 193 follow the expected scaling pattern.

In PassMark tests, the Core 7 360 delivers 15,544 in multithread performance and 4,274 in single-thread performance. The integer math score reaches 34,238, while floating point math hits 44,963. Data compression reaches 142,877, and data encryption scores 11,164. The extended instructions test produces 12,390, and random string sorting completes at 17,636. The find prime numbers test yields 120, and the physics score is 1,213.

The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475 lacks recorded benchmark scores in the database, meaning no direct head-to-head delta can be computed. However, the specification sheet indicates a 12-core, 24-thread configuration versus the Intel's 6-core, 6-thread setup. This 2:1 core and 4:1 thread advantage suggests the AMD part would dominate heavily threaded workloads, though no measured numbers confirm this. The Intel part's percentile rank of 72 against all CPUs indicates it sits above the median, while the AMD part's percentile of 50 places it exactly at the midpoint, which is unusual given the core count disparity.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475 uses the Zen 5 architecture under the codename Gorgon Point, manufactured on a 4 nm process by TSMC. The die size is 233 mm². The Intel Core 7 360 uses the Wildcat Lake codename under the Core 5 generation, built on a 3 nm process by Intel's own foundry. No die size is recorded for the Intel part.

Cache hierarchies differ substantially. The AMD chip allocates 80 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of shared L3. The Intel chip uses 192 KB of L1 per core, 2.5 MB of L2 per core, and 6 MB of shared L3. The Intel part has larger per-core L1 and L2 caches, but the AMD part's total L3 capacity is more than double. For workloads that fit in L3, the AMD processor has an advantage; for per-core working sets that stay in L1 or L2, the Intel design could reduce latency.

Memory support is where the gap becomes pronounced. Both parts support DDR5 and LPDDR5X memory types. The AMD processor runs a dual-channel memory bus with 89.6 GB/s of bandwidth. The Intel processor runs a single-channel memory bus with 59.7 GB/s of bandwidth. The AMD part offers roughly 50% more theoretical memory bandwidth, which matters for integrated graphics performance and memory-bound compute tasks.

The integrated graphics differ in branding. AMD uses the Radeon 890M, while Intel uses Xe3 Graphics with 2 Xe cores. No benchmark scores exist for either GPU in the database, so direct comparison is not possible. Both parts are marked as active production and target the mobile segment.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core 7 360 has an established set of measured scores across Cinebench and PassMark suites. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 13,634 and single-core score of 1,924 provide concrete numbers for comparison. The PassMark multithread score of 15,544 and single-thread score of 4,274 indicate balanced performance across both axes. The nearest rivals, the Intel Core i3-13100, Intel Core 5 330, Intel Core i3-14100, and Intel Core 3 305, all cluster within a 0.4% delta, meaning the Core 7 360 performs nearly identically to these existing desktop and mobile parts in aggregate.

The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475 has no measured scores, so its wins must be inferred from specifications. The 24 threads versus 6 threads gives it a theoretical advantage in highly parallel workloads like rendering, video encoding, and scientific computation. The dual-channel memory bus with 89.6 GB/s bandwidth versus 59.7 GB/s favors the AMD part for memory-intensive tasks. The 5.20 GHz boost clock versus 4.80 GHz boost clock suggests a per-thread advantage in short bursts, though the base clocks reverse this: 2.00 GHz for AMD versus 1.50 GHz for Intel.

The power envelope differs significantly. The AMD part has a 28 W TDP, while the Intel part has a 15 W TDP. This means the Intel chip should sustain performance in thermally constrained chassis, while the AMD chip has more power headroom for sustained multi-core work. The trade-off is battery life versus raw throughput.

The Verdict

The database records show the Intel Core 7 360 as a measured performer with an average benchmark score of 18,374, placing it at the 72nd percentile among all CPUs. Its nearest rivals, the Intel Core i3-13100, Intel Core 5 330, Intel Core i3-14100, and Intel Core 3 305, all sit within 0.4% of its average score, indicating the Core 7 360 delivers performance consistent with established mid-range parts. The specific Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 13,634 and PassMark multithread score of 15,544 give concrete reference points.

The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475 has no recorded benchmark scores, so its average score is 0 and its percentile is 50. This does not reflect its potential, only the absence of data. Based on specifications, the AMD part offers 24 threads, a 5.20 GHz boost, dual-channel memory at 89.6 GB/s, and 16 MB of L3. The Intel part offers 6 threads, a 4.80 GHz boost, single-channel memory at 59.7 GB/s, and 6 MB of L3.

For users choosing between these two, the data supports a clear split. The Intel Core 7 360 is the only one with measured performance, and its scores align closely with the Intel Core i3-14100 and similar parts. It also runs at 15 W, which suits thin-and-light mobile designs. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475 presents a specification-driven argument for heavily threaded workloads, but the absence of benchmark data means its actual performance cannot be verified from the database. The recorded evidence favors the Intel part for anyone requiring confirmed performance numbers. The AMD part remains a specification-based option for those who prioritize core count, memory bandwidth, and higher boost clocks.
