Analysis: AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475 vs Intel Core i7-14701E
Where Each One Wins
The benchmark data for this comparison is one-sided in terms of recorded results: the Intel Core i7-14701E is the only processor in the database with completed benchmark entries. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475 has no recorded scores in any test category, leaving its performance profile entirely unmeasured in the current dataset. This does not mean the AMD part is incapable, but it does mean that every quantitative comparison in this analysis must rely on the Intel processor's results alone.
The Intel Core i7-14701E records wins across every benchmark category where data exists. In single-core performance, it posts a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 3133, a Cinebench R20 single-core score of 1315, and a Cinebench R15 single-core score of 315. Its multi-core results are equally complete, with Cinebench R23 multi-core at 22195, Cinebench R20 multi-core at 9321, and Cinebench R15 multi-core at 2237. The PassMark suite shows consistent strength: multi-thread performance at 26112, single-thread at 4305, integer math at 81325, floating point math at 61873, extended instructions at 18528, and data compression at 282939.
The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475, by contrast, has no benchmark entries in the database. The percentile data reflects this gap: the Intel part sits at the 83rd percentile among all CPUs, while the AMD part is at the 50th percentile, a position that likely reflects the absence of measured results rather than actual performance. The database records an average benchmark score of 33206 for the Intel processor, while the AMD processor shows an average score of 0 due to its empty benchmark list.
For workload segmentation, the available data only supports a meaningful split for the Intel side. The Intel processor shows strong results in both integer-heavy and floating-point-heavy tasks, with integer math at 81325 and floating point math at 61873. Its data compression score of 282939 indicates solid throughput for archival or database-style workloads, while its random string sorting score of 29158 suggests reasonable performance in text processing or sorting tasks. The physics score of 2399 and the prime number finding score of 176 round out a profile that covers simulation and number-theoretic workloads.
The AMD processor's wins, if any exist, cannot be identified from the recorded data. Any claim about where the AMD part wins would be speculation, and the database does not support such a claim. The honest summary is that the Intel processor wins every category where measurement exists, and the AMD processor has no measured categories at all.
The Verdict
The verdict from the recorded data is straightforward: the Intel Core i7-14701E is the only processor in this pairing with measurable performance, and it performs well across the board. Its 83rd percentile ranking places it above the majority of CPUs in the database, and its average benchmark score of 33206 puts it in company with AMD Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H (33201, 0% difference), AMD Ryzen 5 8645HS (33244, -0.1% difference), AMD Ryzen 7 7745HX (33091, 0.3% difference), and Intel Core i7-13650HX (33089, 0.4% difference). These nearest rivals are all within 0.4% of the Intel part's score, indicating that the i7-14701E sits in a tightly contested performance band.
For users choosing between these two processors, the data supports picking the Intel part if measured performance is the only criterion. The Intel processor delivers a complete benchmark profile with strong single-core and multi-core results. The AMD processor has no recorded results, so any decision to choose it would be based on factors outside the database, such as its mobile form factor, its integrated Radeon 890M graphics, or its lower TDP of 28 watts compared to the Intel part's 65 watts. These are real differences, but they are not performance measurements.
The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475 is a mobile processor, while the Intel Core i7-14701E is a desktop processor. This difference in market segment is fundamental: the AMD part targets laptops and compact systems, while the Intel part targets desktop builds. The database does not record any benchmark results for the AMD part, so the verdict cannot favor it on measured performance. The Intel part wins by default in every benchmark category, and it wins on the strength of its recorded scores, not merely by the absence of competition.
The nearest rival data for the Intel part shows that its performance is competitive with a range of AMD and Intel processors from both mobile and desktop segments. The Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H matches it essentially exactly (0% delta), the Ryzen 5 8645HS is 0.1% behind, the Ryzen 7 7745HX is 0.3% ahead, and the Core i7-13650HX is 0.4% ahead. This clustering suggests that the i7-14701E delivers performance in line with the upper mid-range of the database, and that small differences between these parts are within measurement noise.
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
Since the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 475 has no recorded benchmark scores, the head-to-head comparison is entirely one-sided. The Intel Core i7-14701E's largest wins are in the PassMark data compression test, where it scores 282939, and in integer math, where it scores 81325. These are the two highest raw scores in its benchmark list, and they indicate strong performance in data-dense and arithmetic-heavy workloads.
In the Cinebench suite, the Intel part's multi-core results show a clear scaling pattern: 2237 in R15, 9321 in R20, and 22195 in R23. The single-core results scale similarly: 315 in R15, 1315 in R20, and 3133 in R23. The ratio between multi-core and single-core scores is roughly 7:1 across all three Cinebench versions, which is consistent with a processor that has 8 cores and 16 threads. The AMD part, with 12 cores and 24 threads, would be expected to show a different scaling pattern if measured, but the database records no such data.
The PassMark suite provides additional detail on the Intel part's strengths. Floating point math at 61873 trails integer math at 81325, indicating that the processor handles integer workloads more efficiently than floating-point workloads, a common characteristic of desktop CPUs with this architecture. Extended instructions score 18528, data encryption scores 14862, and random string sorting scores 29158. The physics score of 2399 and the prime number score of 176 are the lowest entries, reflecting the nature of those specific tests rather than a general weakness.
The average benchmark score of 33206 for the Intel part is the key aggregate figure. Its nearest rivals, all within 0.4%, include two AMD mobile parts (Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H and Ryzen 5 8645HS), one AMD mobile HX part (Ryzen 7 7745HX), and one Intel mobile HX part (Core i7-13650HX). This mix of rivals, all close in score, indicates that the i7-14701E's desktop positioning does not give it a significant performance advantage over strong mobile parts in this performance band.
The AMD part's lack of benchmarks means no head-to-head win can be attributed to it. The database records zero wins for the AMD processor and zero wins for the Intel processor in the head-to-head field, because the head-to-head benchmark list is empty. All actual benchmark data belongs to the Intel part, and all comparative statements must reflect that asymmetry.
