AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132 vs Intel Core 7 251E Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The Core 7 251E has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, while the Ryzen AI Embedded P132 has a full PassMark suite. This makes direct head-to-head comparisons one-sided. The P132 delivers a PassMark single-thread score of 3713 and a multithread score of 19262. Its integer math score is 62249, floating point math reaches 42248, and extended instructions score 16520. Data encryption completes at 11444, while data compression hits 230437. Random string sorting finishes at 25181, and find prime numbers scores 57. Physics processing produces 1022.

The P132 sits at the 86th percentile among all CPUs in the database. Its average benchmark score is 37804. The nearest rivals table places it within a narrow band: the Intel Core 5 211E averages 37829 (0.1% lower), the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 435 averages 37762 (0.1% higher), the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 averages 37904 (0.3% lower), and the Intel Core i9-14901E averages 37911 (0.3% lower). The P132 effectively trades positions within a 0.3% window against all four rivals, indicating that its aggregate performance sits at the same tier as those parts despite differences in core counts and clock speeds.

The Core 7 251E has an avgBenchmarkScore of 0 and no PassMark entries, which means the database contains no measured workloads for it. Its percentile rank is 50, a neutral placeholder value. Consequently, the recorded data cannot substantiate any performance advantage for the Intel part. The only quantitative comparison available is that the P132 has a measured average score of 37804, while the Core 7 251E has no measured score at all.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different design philosophies. The Ryzen AI Embedded P132 uses the Gorgon Point codename and belongs to the Ryzen AI Embedded generation based on Zen 5 / Zen 5c cores. It is built on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The Core 7 251E uses the Bartlett Lake codename and belongs to the Core 7 (Bartlett Lake) generation. It is built on a 10 nm process at Intel's own foundry.

Core topology diverges sharply. The P132 has 6 cores and 12 threads. The Core 7 251E has 24 cores and 32 threads. That is an 18-core and 20-thread difference in favor of Intel on paper. Cache layouts also differ. The P132 allocates 80 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 4 MB of L3. The Core 7 251E allocates 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 36 MB of shared L3. The Intel part therefore has twice the L2 per core and nine times the total L3.

Clock behavior separates them further. The P132 runs a 2.00 GHz base clock and a 4.50 GHz boost clock. The Core 7 251E runs a 2.10 GHz base clock and a 5.60 GHz boost clock. The Intel chip has a 0.10 GHz higher base and a 1.10 GHz higher boost. Power envelopes differ substantially: the P132 has a 28 W TDP, while the Core 7 251E has a 65 W TDP.

Platform support diverges. The P132 uses AMD Socket FP8 and the Core 7 251E uses Intel Socket 1700. The P132 supports PCIe Gen 4 with 14 CPU lanes; the Core 7 251E supports PCIe Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes. Memory support overlaps on DDR5 but not completely: the P132 supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X, while the Core 7 251E supports DDR4 and DDR5. Both use dual-channel memory buses and both report 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth. ECC memory is enabled on both parts.

Integrated graphics differ. The P132 carries Radeon 840M graphics. The Core 7 251E carries UHD Graphics 770. The die size is recorded only for the Intel part at 257 mm². The P132 has no die size entry. Transistor counts are not recorded for either chip.

The release dates place the Intel part earlier: the Core 7 251E launched on 2025-01-12, while the P132 launched on 2026-03-08. Both are listed as Active in production status. The Core 7 251E is a desktop segment part; the P132 is a mobile segment part. The Intel chip has a known part number (SRQDUQ657), while the P132 has an unknown part number.

Where Each One Wins

The Ryzen AI Embedded P132 wins in every measurable benchmark category because it is the only one of the two with recorded scores. Its multithread score of 19262 and single-thread score of 3713 establish baseline performance. The data compression score of 230437 shows strong throughput in that workload. The integer math score of 62249 and floating point math score of 42248 indicate solid compute capability. Extended instructions at 16520 and data encryption at 11444 round out the measured suite. The 86th percentile ranking places it above the median of all CPUs in the database.

The Core 7 251E wins where the database has no data to contradict its specifications. It has a higher boost clock at 5.60 GHz versus 4.50 GHz, more than triple the cores at 24 versus 6, and nearly triple the threads at 32 versus 12. Its 36 MB of shared L3 dwarfs the 4 MB on the P132. It supports PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes versus Gen 4 with 14 lanes. It also supports DDR4 memory in addition to DDR5, which the P132 does not. The Intel part has a larger die at 257 mm², though this is a physical characteristic rather than a performance advantage.

The P132 wins on power efficiency in the recorded specifications, with a 28 W TDP compared to 65 W for the Intel part. The P132 also uses a smaller 4 nm process at TSMC versus the 10 nm process at Intel. The P132 is positioned for mobile, while the Core 7 251E is positioned for desktop, which aligns with the power envelope difference.

The Verdict

The recorded data supports a clear split. For any measured workload in the database, the Ryzen AI Embedded P132 is the only option with verified results. Its average benchmark score of 37804 and 86th percentile ranking come directly from measurements. The Core 7 251E has no measured scores, so its performance must be inferred from specifications alone.

The Core 7 251E offers a substantially larger core and thread count, a higher boost clock, more cache, and newer PCIe connectivity. Those specifications suggest higher raw throughput potential in heavily parallel workloads, but no benchmark data confirms it. The P132 offers a much lower TDP, a smaller process node, and a complete set of measured benchmarks that place it within 0.3% of several comparable processors in the database.

A user selecting strictly on measured data should choose the Ryzen AI Embedded P132, because it has verified scores across all PassMark categories. A user selecting strictly on listed specifications and willing to accept unverified performance should consider the Core 7 251E for its 24 cores, 32 threads, 5.60 GHz boost, and 36 MB L3. The Intel part also carries the only recorded launch MSRP at $384, while the AMD part has no listed price. The mobile versus desktop segmentation further clarifies the intended use: the P132 suits low-power embedded mobile scenarios, and the Core 7 251E suits desktop platforms with higher power delivery.
