AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i vs Intel Core i7-14701E Comparison

# Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i and Intel Core i7-14701E both ship with 8 cores and 16 threads, yet the recorded benchmark data shows a clear split in workload strengths. The Intel part holds every measured benchmark score in the database, with wins across single-thread, multi-thread, and specialized PassMark workloads. The AMD processor, by contrast, has no recorded benchmark entries in the database, so its wins cannot be quantified from measured results. The Intel Core i7-14701E dominates all available performance metrics, while the AMD part's positioning rests on platform characteristics rather than measured scores.

For single-thread responsiveness, the Intel processor leads in every recorded single-core test. Cinebench R15 single-core shows 315, Cinebench R20 single-core shows 1315, Cinebench R23 single-core shows 3133, and PassMark single-thread shows 4305. These results indicate strong per-core execution, consistent with its higher boost clock. The AMD part's base clock of 2.00 GHz and boost clock of 5.00 GHz trail the Intel's 2.60 GHz base and 5.40 GHz boost, which aligns with the Intel's measured single-thread advantage.

For multi-thread productivity, the Intel processor again records the only scores. Cinebench R15 multicore reaches 2237, Cinebench R20 multicore reaches 9321, Cinebench R23 multicore reaches 22195, and PassMark multithread reaches 26112. The AMD part has no equivalent entries, so multi-thread comparison relies on architectural and cache differences rather than direct measurements.

For specialized workloads, the Intel part shows particular strengths in data compression and encryption. PassMark data compression scores 282939, data encryption scores 14862, extended instructions score 18528, find prime numbers score 176, floating point math scores 61873, integer math scores 81325, physics scores 2399, and random string sorting scores 29158. These figures cover memory-heavy, arithmetic-heavy, and encryption-heavy tasks, giving the Intel processor a comprehensive measured profile.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i targets a different use case entirely. Its 28 W TDP, mobile market segment, and AMD Socket FP8 indicate an embedded and low-power design, whereas the Intel part is a 65 W desktop processor. The AMD part includes the Radeon 880M integrated graphics, which the Intel part does not match in the recorded data; the Intel uses UHD Graphics 770. For workloads that favor the AMD platform, the advantages would come from power efficiency, integrated graphics capability, and memory flexibility, not from recorded CPU benchmark scores.

# Architecture Differences

The two processors diverge sharply in architecture and manufacturing. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i uses the Gorgon Point codename, belongs to the Ryzen AI Embedded generation built on Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores, and is fabricated on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Core i7-14701E uses Raptor Lake architecture, specifically Raptor Lake-R, belongs to the Core 14th Gen and Core i7 (Raptor Lake Refresh) generation, and is fabricated on a 10 nm process at Intel. The die sizes differ as well: the AMD part measures 233 mm², while the Intel part measures 257 mm².

Cache configurations reveal significant differences. Both parts use 80 KB of L1 cache per core. The L2 cache differs: the AMD part has 1 MB per core, while the Intel part has 2 MB per core, doubling the per-core L2 capacity. The L3 cache shows an even larger gap. The AMD part has 8 MB total L3, while the Intel part has 33 MB shared L3. This gives the Intel processor substantially more last-level cache, which likely contributes to its measured multi-thread and single-thread scores.

Memory support also differs. The AMD part supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X memory with dual-channel bus and a recorded memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel part supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory with dual-channel bus, and no memory bandwidth figure is recorded in the database. The AMD part's LPDDR5X support suggests a design for power-sensitive embedded or mobile systems, while the Intel part's DDR4 support indicates broader compatibility with existing desktop platforms.

PCIe connectivity differs by generation and lane count. The AMD part provides PCIe Gen 4 with 16 CPU lanes. The Intel part provides PCIe Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes. The Intel part's Gen 5 support offers higher potential bandwidth for expansion devices, though the AMD part's Gen 4 implementation is adequate for many embedded scenarios.

Both processors support ECC memory, which is useful for embedded and workstation reliability. The AMD part supports dual-channel memory as does the Intel part. The AMD part integrates Radeon 880M graphics, while the Intel part integrates UHD Graphics 770. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier. The AMD part's production status is Active, and the Intel part's production status is also Active. The AMD part's release date is recorded as March 8, 2026, while the Intel part's release date is June 30, 2024. The AMD part has no launch MSRP recorded, and the Intel part also has no launch MSRP recorded.

The Intel part has a part number of Q49FSRNJK, while the AMD part's part number is unknown. The AMD part's series field is null, and its architecture field is null, though the generation field identifies Zen 5 and Zen 5c. The Intel part's series is Core 14th Gen. The AMD part's market segment is Mobile, while the Intel part's is Desktop, which frames all other architectural differences in terms of intended deployment.

# Head-to-Head Benchmarks

Because the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, the head-to-head comparison relies entirely on the Intel Core i7-14701E's measured results and the architectural data for both parts. The Intel processor's percentile versus all CPUs is 83, and its average benchmark score is 33206. Its nearest rivals in the database include the AMD Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H with an average score of 33201 and a delta of 0 percent, the AMD Ryzen 5 8645HS with an average score of 33244 and a delta of -0.1 percent, the AMD Ryzen 7 7745HX with an average score of 33091 and a delta of 0.3 percent, and the Intel Core i7-13650HX with an average score of 33089 and a delta of 0.4 percent. These deltas are all within a fraction of a percent, placing the Intel Core i7-14701E in a tightly grouped performance band around 33089 to 33244.

The Intel part's Cinebench scores show its multi-thread capability. Cinebench R15 multicore reaches 2237, Cinebench R20 multicore reaches 9321, and Cinebench R23 multicore reaches 22195. The R23 multicore score of 22195 is roughly 2.4 times the R20 multicore score of 9321, which is consistent with the different scaling of those workloads. The single-core scores follow a similar progression: R15 single-core at 315, R20 single-core at 1315, and R23 single-core at 3133.

The PassMark suite adds further granularity. PassMark multithread scores 26112, while PassMark single-thread scores 4305. The ratio of multithread to single-thread is about 6.1, which reflects the benefit of 16 threads across the measured workload. PassMark integer math scores 81325, and floating point math scores 61873, indicating stronger integer throughput. PassMark data compression scores 282939, a very high figure relative to other PassMark subtests, while data encryption scores 14862. Extended instructions score 18528, random string sorting scores 29158, physics scores 2399, and find prime numbers scores 176. The find prime numbers score of 176 is the lowest recorded subtest, which is typical for that particular workload.

The nearest rival data shows that the Intel Core i7-14701E sits almost exactly at parity with the AMD Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H, which has an average score of 33201 and a delta of 0 percent. The AMD Ryzen 5 8645HS is marginally ahead at 33244 with a delta of -0.1 percent, meaning the Intel part is 0.1 percent slower than that rival. The AMD Ryzen 7 7745HX and Intel Core i7-13650HX trail slightly, with deltas of 0.3 percent and 0.4 percent respectively, meaning the Intel Core i7-14701E is 0.3 percent and 0.4 percent faster than those two. These differences are within measurement noise, so the Intel part's performance class is effectively identical to all four rivals.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i has no benchmark scores, no average benchmark score, and no nearest rivals in the database. Its percentile versus all CPUs is 50, which is a neutral placement, but with zero recorded benchmarks, that percentile does not reflect measured performance. The head-to-head benchmark comparison therefore shows the Intel part as the only one with empirical performance data, and all wins in the recorded benchmarks belong to it.
