AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 vs Intel Core 7 250H Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data for this comparison is one-sided. The Intel Core 7 250H has a full suite of benchmark scores in the database, while the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 has no recorded benchmark entries. The head-to-head benchmark array is empty, and the win counters show zero results for both processors. Consequently, the analysis below relies entirely on the Intel part's measured performance and the architectural characteristics of both chips as listed in the database.

The Intel Core 7 250H delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 16561 points, with a single-core score of 1931 points. In Cinebench R20, it scores 9697 multi-core and 1368 single-core. The older Cinebench R15 workload shows 3147 multi-core and 298 single-core. These results indicate a strong mobile processor for threaded workloads, as the multi-core scores scale consistently across all three Cinebench versions.

PassMark results for the Intel part reinforce its multi-threaded capability. The multithread score is 27030, integer math reaches 99100, floating point math hits 65094, and extended instructions score 17318. Data compression reaches 303269, while data encryption records 18206. Random string sorting completes at 34136, and the find prime numbers test returns 106. The physics score is 1824, and the single-thread PassMark score is 4148.

Because the AMD part has no benchmark scores in the database, no direct numeric comparison between the two processors is possible. The Intel Core 7 250H carries an average benchmark score of 35728 and sits at the 85th percentile among all CPUs. Its nearest rivals in the database are the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 with an average score of 35719 and a delta of 0%, the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H at 35670 with a delta of 0.2%, the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5845 at 35802 with a delta of -0.2%, and the AMD Ryzen 7 7700X at 35909 with a delta of -0.5%. These deltas show the Intel Core 7 250H lands within half a percent of all four nearest rivals, placing it in a tightly contested performance band.

The Verdict

The data supports a clear split. The Intel Core 7 250H is the only one of the two with measured benchmark results, and those results place it at the 85th percentile overall. Its average benchmark score of 35728 is effectively matched by the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 (35719, 0% delta), slightly above the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H (35670, 0.2% delta), slightly below the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5845 (35802, -0.2% delta), and slightly below the AMD Ryzen 7 7700X (35909, -0.5% delta). This means the Intel part performs on par with a group of strong desktop and mobile processors from both vendors, despite being a mobile chip.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 cannot be assessed on performance from the database, as it has no scores and no nearest rivals listed. Its percentile ranking of 50 is a default placement in the absence of measurements, not a verified performance level. Users seeking a processor with confirmed benchmark data should look at the Intel Core 7 250H. Those evaluating the AMD part must rely on its specifications alone, since no measured performance exists in the database.

The Intel part also carries a launch MSRP of $502. No pricing information exists for the AMD part in the database.
