Analysis: AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 vs Intel Processor 300
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded data shows a stark contrast between these two processors. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 has a substantial benchmark presence with 15 recorded scores, while the Intel Processor 300 has no recorded benchmark scores in the database. This absence of data for the Intel part makes a direct score-by-score comparison impossible, but the available measurements for the AMD processor provide a clear picture of its performance tier.
The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 achieves a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 19095 and a single-core score of 2054. In Cinebench R15, it posts 3234 multicore and 313 single-core. These results place the processor in the 92nd percentile of all CPUs tracked in the database. Its average benchmark score of 56306 positions it alongside some notable high-end parts. The nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen AI Max 390, scores 56273, a delta of just 0.1%. The AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3955WX scores 56555, putting the Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 0.4% behind. The Intel Core i9-14900HX, a flagship mobile part, scores 56004, meaning the Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 sits 0.5% ahead. The Intel Core 7 253PQE scores 55919, and the Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 leads it by 0.7%. These tight margins indicate that the AMD part operates in a performance class typically occupied by high-core-count desktop and enthusiast mobile processors.
PassMark measurements for the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 show a multithread score of 36402 and a single-thread score of 4050. Integer math reaches 127573, floating point math 80023, and extended instructions 32803. Data compression scores 461195, data encryption 22929, and random string sorting 48824. The physics test records 1915, and the find prime numbers test records 136. These numbers, taken together, suggest a balanced throughput profile that leans heavily on multi-threaded workloads, consistent with its 12-core, 24-thread configuration.
Because the Intel Processor 300 has zero recorded benchmarks, the database cannot assign it a comparative delta. Its percentile ranking of 50 places it at the median of all CPUs, while the AMD part sits at the 92nd percentile. That 42-percentile gap encapsulates the performance divide indicated by the data, even without a direct head-to-head measurement.
Where Each One Wins
The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 wins in every workload category where data exists. That includes multi-threaded rendering, single-threaded rendering, integer and floating point math, encryption, compression, sorting, and physics simulations. The Cinebench R23 multicore score of 19095 indicates strong sustained throughput for CPU-bound content creation. The single-core score of 2054 shows that per-thread performance is also competitive, which matters for applications that rely on a few fast threads.
The Intel Processor 300 wins no recorded benchmarks because none exist in the database. Its 50th percentile ranking, however, indicates that it lands in the middle of the distribution, meaning it is not a low-end outlier. The data simply does not include measurements to establish any workload-specific strength.
For use-case analysis, the AMD processor's 12 cores and 24 threads, combined with a boost clock of 5.20 GHz, point toward productivity and multi-threaded workloads. The high PassMark multithread score of 36402 reinforces this. The Intel part, with 2 cores and 4 threads and a base clock of 3.90 GHz, lacks the parallel throughput capacity that the AMD part demonstrates. The recorded data does not show any benchmark where the Intel processor would take the lead, because no such measurement exists.
Architecture Differences
The two processors come from different design philosophies and manufacturing ecosystems. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 uses the Zen 5 architecture under the Gorgon Point codename, built on a 4 nm process at TSMC. It belongs to the Ryzen AI PRO 400 generation, which combines Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. The die size is 233 mm². The Intel Processor 300 uses the Raptor Lake architecture under the Raptor Lake-S codename, built on a 10 nm process at Intel. Its die size is 163 mm².

The thermal envelope differs as well: the AMD part has a TDP of 28 watts, while the Intel part has a TDP of 46 watts. Despite the higher power envelope, the Intel part offers far fewer cores and threads. The AMD part also has a higher boost clock at 5.20 GHz, while the Intel part has no recorded boost clock and a base clock of 3.90 GHz. The AMD processor uses AMD Socket FP8, a mobile platform, while the Intel processor uses Intel Socket 1700, a desktop platform. Production status for both is listed as active.
The release dates show a two-year gap. The Intel Processor 300 was released on 2024-01-07, while the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 was released on 2026-01-04. The Intel part has a launch MSRP of $82. The AMD part has no recorded launch MSRP.

The Verdict
The database presents a clear picture for the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470. It delivers a 92nd-percentile performance ranking, an average benchmark score of 56306, and competitive margins against high-end rivals such as the Intel Core i9-14900HX and the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3955WX. Its 12 cores, 24 threads, 16 MB of L3 cache, and 89.6 GB/s of memory bandwidth position it for multi-threaded workloads. The 28-watt TDP suggests efficient operation relative to its performance class.
The Intel Processor 300 presents a different profile. With 2 cores, 4 threads, 6 MB of shared L3, and a 50th-percentile ranking, it sits at the median of the database. Its 46-watt TDP exceeds the AMD part despite far fewer execution resources. No benchmark scores exist to demonstrate any workload advantage. The launch MSRP of $82 indicates an entry-level market position, but the database records no performance data to support a use-case recommendation.
For users selecting between these two based on recorded data, the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 is the only part with measurable performance evidence. It outperforms or matches the nearest rivals in the database across the recorded categories. The Intel Processor 300, in the absence of recorded benchmarks, cannot be positioned as a competitive alternative in any workload category. The data supports choosing the AMD part for any task that relies on CPU throughput, from rendering to encryption to scientific computation.
