AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i vs Intel Core i7-14700HX Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data presents a stark contrast between these two mobile processors. The Intel Core i7-14700HX holds every benchmark score in the database, while the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i has no recorded benchmark entries. This means the head-to-head comparison is one-sided by default, with the Intel part delivering all measurable performance data.

The Intel Core i7-14700HX posts a Cinebench R15 multicore score of 3812 and a single-core score of 296. In Cinebench R20, it reaches 13059 multicore and 1843 single-core. The R23 run shows 24595 multicore and 2103 single-core. These numbers place the Intel chip in the 89th percentile of all CPUs in the database, with an average benchmark score of 45953.

Geekbench results for the Intel part show 14390 multicore and 2116 single-core. Passmark tests reveal specialized strengths: data compression at 438539, data encryption at 26092, extended instructions at 25718, and prime number finding at 165. Floating point math scores 93836, integer math hits 131296, and multithread performance reaches 36566. Physics testing shows 2252, random string sorting scores 48544, and single-thread performance is 3947.

The AMD processor sits at the 50th percentile of all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of zero. There are no nearest rivals listed for the AMD part, and no head-to-head benchmark entries exist. The database shows zero wins for the AMD processor and a single win for the Intel processor, reflecting the complete absence of AMD test results.

Because the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i has no recorded benchmark scores, no direct performance deltas can be calculated between the two. The Intel chip's nearest rivals include the AMD EPYC 7303 with an average score of 45960 and a delta of 0 percent, the AMD EPYC 4364P with 45970 and 0 percent, the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 375 with 46030 and -0.2 percent, and the Intel Core Ultra 5 235 with 46062 and -0.2 percent. These comparisons show the i7-14700HX performing within 0.2 percent of its closest competitors, which are server-class AMD EPYC parts and newer mobile chips.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core i7-14700HX wins across every benchmark category recorded in the database. Its Cinebench scores indicate strong sustained multicore rendering capability, with the R23 multicore score of 24595 suggesting it can handle heavy threaded workloads such as video encoding and 3D rendering. The single-core R23 score of 2103 points to solid per-thread performance for everyday responsiveness and lightly threaded applications.

Passmark results break down into distinct strengths. Data compression at 438539 shows high throughput for archiving and database workloads. Encryption at 26092 indicates moderate cryptographic processing speed. Extended instructions at 25718 reflect SIMD and vector processing capability. Floating point math at 93836 and integer math at 131296 demonstrate broad computational range. The multithread score of 36566 confirms the chip's ability to parallelize across its many threads.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i has no recorded wins in any category. Its zero benchmark average and 50th percentile ranking place it in the middle of the database distribution, but without actual test scores, the data cannot attribute any specific workload advantage to it. The Intel part's 89th percentile ranking places it well above the median, suggesting it outperforms roughly nine out of ten CPUs in the database.

For use-case analysis, the data indicates the Intel processor is suited for demanding mobile workloads that require both high core counts and strong per-core performance. The AMD part's specifications suggest embedded and AI-focused applications, but the lack of benchmark data prevents a quantitative assessment of its strengths.

Architecture Differences

The two processors use fundamentally different designs. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i is built on a 4 nm TSMC process and belongs to the Gorgon Point codename family, with a generation designation of Ryzen AI Embedded based on Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. The Intel Core i7-14700HX uses a 10 nm Intel process, carries the Raptor Lake-HX codename, and belongs to the Raptor Lake architecture as part of the Core 14th Gen series.

Core counts differ sharply. The AMD chip has 8 cores and 16 threads, while the Intel chip provides 20 cores and 28 threads. This 12-core and 12-thread difference gives the Intel part a substantial advantage in raw parallel processing capacity. Base clocks are close, with AMD at 2.00 GHz and Intel at 2.10 GHz, but boost clocks favor Intel at 5.50 GHz versus 5.00 GHz for AMD.

Cache hierarchies show distinct configurations. Both parts use 80 KB of L1 cache per core. L2 cache differs, with AMD providing 1 MB per core and Intel providing 2 MB per core. The L3 cache is the most dramatic difference: AMD has 8 MB total, while Intel has 33 MB shared. This gives Intel more than four times the L3 capacity, which benefits workloads with large working sets.

Memory support varies. The AMD processor supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X with dual-channel memory and a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel processor supports DDR4 and DDR5 with dual-channel memory, and no memory bandwidth figure is recorded in the database. Both chips support ECC memory.

PCIe connectivity differs by generation. AMD uses Gen 4 with 16 lanes from the CPU, while Intel uses Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU. Integrated graphics also differ: AMD includes a Radeon 880M, and Intel includes UHD Graphics 770.

The AMD die size is 233 mm², while Intel's is 257 mm². The Intel part has an unlocked multiplier, while the AMD part is locked. The Intel part has a known part number of SRMXG, while the AMD part number is unknown. Release dates place Intel in January 2024 and AMD in March 2026. The AMD chip uses an AMD Socket FP8, while the Intel chip uses Intel BGA 1964. TDP ratings are 28 watts for AMD and 55 watts for Intel, indicating different thermal design envelopes.

The Verdict

The data presents a clear performance hierarchy. The Intel Core i7-14700HX delivers a complete set of benchmark results across Cinebench, Geekbench, and Passmark tests, with an average benchmark score of 45953 and an 89th percentile ranking. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i has no recorded benchmarks, an average score of zero, and a 50th percentile placement.

For users selecting a processor based on measured performance, the Intel part offers documented multicore capabilities with 20 cores and 28 threads, a 5.50 GHz boost clock, and 33 MB of shared L3 cache. Its Cinebench R23 multicore score of 24595 and Geekbench multicore score of 14390 indicate strong threaded performance. The Passmark multithread score of 36566 reinforces this pattern.

The AMD part presents a different profile. Its 8 cores and 16 threads, 28 watt TDP, and 4 nm process suggest an efficiency-focused design for embedded applications. The Radeon 880M integrated graphics and LPDDR5X memory support point toward integrated system use. However, the absence of benchmark data means no performance claims can be substantiated from the database.

The Intel processor also benefits from architectural advantages that are measurable in its specifications. The 33 MB L3 cache versus 8 MB for AMD, the 2 MB per core L2 versus 1 MB, and the 5.50 GHz boost versus 5.00 GHz all favor Intel. The PCIe Gen 5 interface provides newer connectivity standards. The unlocked multiplier offers overclocking flexibility that the locked AMD part lacks.

The 55 watt TDP for Intel indicates higher power consumption than the AMD part's 28 watts, but the benchmark scores show what that power budget delivers. The Intel chip's nearest rivals, including the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 375 and Intel Core Ultra 5 235, sit within 0.2 percent of its average score, placing the i7-14700HX in a competitive tier with recent mobile processors.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i remains an unknown quantity in the database. Its specifications describe a compact, power-efficient processor with modern features, but without test scores, its real-world performance cannot be assessed. The Intel Core i7-14700HX, by contrast, has extensive validation across multiple benchmark suites.

For buyers needing verified performance data, the Intel Core i7-14700HX is the only option with recorded results. Its high core count, large cache, and strong benchmark scores make it suitable for demanding mobile workloads. The AMD part may serve embedded designs where low power and small size matter, but the database provides no evidence of its computational capabilities.
