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

The Verdict

The recorded database contains a complete benchmark profile for the Intel Core i7-14701TE, while the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i has no submitted benchmark scores. This makes a direct numerical comparison impossible, but the available data still informs which processor suits different deployment scenarios.

The Intel Core i7-14701TE sits at the 78th percentile of all CPUs in the database, with an average benchmark score of 26013. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen AI 5 340, which scores 25981 (0.1% slower), and the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 5655GE, which scores 25880 (0.5% slower). The Intel part also edges out the AMD Ryzen 5 8640HS by 0.4% and the AMD Ryzen 5 8540U by 0.7%. This places the Core i7-14701TE at the top of a tight cluster of mid-range processors.

For the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i, the absence of benchmark data means the database cannot confirm its performance tier. However, the silicon details in its specification sheet suggest it targets a different use case entirely. The 28 W TDP, mobile market segment, and integrated Radeon 880M graphics point toward power-conscious embedded systems rather than high-throughput desktop workloads.

The verdict from the data is straightforward: the Intel Core i7-14701TE is the choice for applications where verified multi-threaded performance and a 78th percentile standing matter. The AMD part is the choice for embedded deployments that prioritize low power consumption, compact packaging, and integrated graphics capability, accepting that its performance remains unverified in the database.

Architecture Differences

The two processors diverge sharply in their underlying designs. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i uses the Gorgon Point codename, belonging to the Ryzen AI Embedded generation built on a mix of Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. It is fabricated on a 4 nm process at TSMC, with a die size of 233 mm². The Intel Core i7-14701TE uses the Raptor Lake architecture, specifically Raptor Lake-R, part of the Core 14th Gen series and the Raptor Lake Refresh generation. It is built on a 10 nm process at Intel with a die size of 257 mm².

Cache hierarchies differ notably. Both processors allocate 80 KB of L1 cache per core, but the Intel part doubles the per-core L2 allocation to 2 MB versus 1 MB on the AMD chip. The L3 cache gap is substantial: the Intel Core i7-14701TE has 33 MB of shared L3 cache, while the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i has only 8 MB. This 25 MB difference in last-level cache can materially affect workloads with large working sets.

Memory support also separates the two. The AMD processor supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X memory with a dual-channel bus and a recorded memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel processor supports both DDR4 and DDR5, also dual-channel, but the database records no memory bandwidth figure for it. Both support ECC memory, which suits reliability-oriented embedded and server applications.

PCIe connectivity differs by generation. The AMD part provides Gen 4 with 16 lanes from the CPU, while the Intel part provides Gen 5 with 16 lanes. The newer PCIe generation on the Intel side offers higher potential bandwidth for expansion devices, though the AMD side may consume less power per lane. Integrated graphics also differ: the AMD chip carries a Radeon 880M, while the Intel chip carries UHD Graphics 770. Both are active production parts, but the AMD chip's release date is recorded as March 8, 2026, versus June 30, 2024, for the Intel part.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

Direct head-to-head benchmark comparisons are absent from the database, so this section analyzes the Intel Core i7-14701TE's recorded scores against its nearest rivals to establish its performance position.

In Cinebench R23 multi-core, the Intel Core i7-14701TE scores 17035. Its single-core score in the same test is 2405. The ratio between these figures indicates strong scaling across its 8 cores and 16 threads. In Cinebench R20, the multi-core score is 7154 and the single-core score is 1010. In Cinebench R15, the multi-core score is 1716 and the single-core score is 242.

PassMark results further characterize the Intel part. Its multi-thread score is 20042, while the single-thread score is 2637 (recorded twice in the database under slightly different test names). Integer math scores 65792, floating-point math scores 50219, and extended instructions score 14354. Data compression reaches 220520, while data encryption reaches 11699. Physics simulation scores 1860, random string sorting scores 22760, and finding prime numbers scores 143.

Comparing these scores to the nearest rivals, the Intel part leads the AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 by 0.1% in average benchmark score, essentially a statistical tie. Against the AMD Ryzen 5 8640HS, the Intel part leads by 0.4%. Against the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 5655GE, it leads by 0.5%. Against the AMD Ryzen 5 8540U, it leads by 0.7%. These margins are small, indicating that the Core i7-14701TE occupies a competitive position but does not dominate its immediate peers.

The single-core Cinebench R23 score of 2405, combined with a 5.20 GHz boost clock, suggests strong responsiveness for lightly threaded tasks. The multi-core Cinebench R23 score of 17035, combined with a 45 W TDP, indicates respectable sustained throughput for a desktop-oriented part.

Where Each One Wins

The data supports distinct deployment profiles for each processor.

The Intel Core i7-14701TE wins on verified performance. Its 78th percentile standing, average benchmark score of 26013, and complete suite of Cinebench and PassMark results give system integrators concrete performance numbers. The 33 MB L3 cache, 2 MB per-core L2 cache, and PCIe Gen 5 connectivity favor workloads that benefit from large caches and modern expansion bandwidth. The 5.20 GHz boost clock and 45 W TDP indicate a part designed for sustained desktop-class throughput. The desktop market segment and Intel Socket 1700 compatibility suit traditional tower and workstation builds.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164i wins on power efficiency and integration. Its 28 W TDP is 17 W lower than the Intel part, which suits thermally constrained embedded chassis. The mobile market segment and AMD Socket FP8 form factor indicate a compact, board-level design. The Radeon 880M integrated graphics likely provide more capable GPU performance than the UHD Graphics 770, though the database records no graphics benchmarks to confirm this. The LPDDR5X memory support enables low-power memory configurations, and the 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth figure provides a measured data path for memory-intensive embedded tasks. The 4 nm TSMC process node suggests advanced power characteristics relative to the Intel 10 nm process.

The cache and memory situation favors Intel for data-heavy workloads. The 33 MB L3 cache versus 8 MB represents a significant advantage for repeated access to larger datasets. The DDR4 support on the Intel side also allows cheaper memory configurations in some markets, though the database records no pricing data.

The AMD part's unverified performance means it cannot claim a win in any measured benchmark category. Its wins are architectural: lower TDP, smaller die size (233 mm² versus 257 mm²), newer process node, and faster integrated graphics branding.
