AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 vs Intel Core 9 270H Comparison

The Verdict

The recorded data for the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 does not include any benchmark scores, a percentile ranking, or an average score. In contrast, the Intel Core 9 270H has a full set of benchmark results, an average score of 38335, and a percentile of 86 against all CPUs. The Intel part also has four nearest rivals with average scores between 38221 and 38392, all within 0.3% of its score, confirming it sits at the top of a tightly packed performance cluster.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 is a mobile processor aimed at embedded systems, with a 28 TDP and a 4 nm process node. The Intel Core 9 270H is a mobile processor with a 45 TDP and a 10 nm node. Data shows the Intel part has a 14-core count versus 10 for AMD, a 5.80 GHz boost clock versus 5.00 GHz, and a larger 24 MB shared L3 cache versus 16 MB. The AMD part counters with a smaller 233 mm² die size, ECC memory support, and a Radeon 880M integrated GPU. The Intel part uses Iris Xe Graphics with 96 execution units.

Since the database contains no benchmark scores for the AMD processor, any direct comparison of measured performance is impossible. The Intel Core 9 270H is the only one of the two with recorded results, so it is the only one that can be positioned against other CPUs. The AMD part must be evaluated on architectural attributes alone, such as its 4 nm node, its Zen 5 / Zen 5c generation, and its 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth. For workloads requiring ECC memory, the AMD part is the only choice. For any workload where a benchmark score is needed, the Intel part is the only one with data.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 uses the Gorgon Point codename and belongs to the Ryzen AI Embedded generation built on Zen 5 / Zen 5c cores. It is fabricated on a 4 nm process at TSMC, with a die size of 233 mm². It has 10 cores and 20 threads, with a base clock of 2.00 GHz and a boost clock of 5.00 GHz. The cache layout is 80 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of L3. It supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X memory over a dual-channel bus with a bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. ECC memory is supported. The PCIe interface is Gen 4 with 16 lanes from the CPU. The integrated graphics are Radeon 880M. The TDP is 28. It uses AMD Socket FP8.

The Intel Core 9 270H uses the Raptor Lake architecture with the Raptor Lake-H codename, part of the Core 9 generation labeled Raptor Lake Refresh. It is fabricated on a 10 nm process at Intel. It has 14 cores and 20 threads, with a base clock of 2.70 GHz and a boost clock of 5.80 GHz. The cache layout is 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 24 MB of shared L3. It supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory over a dual-channel bus, with no memory bandwidth figure recorded. ECC memory is not supported. The PCIe interface is Gen 5 with 8 lanes from the CPU. The integrated graphics are Iris Xe Graphics with 96 execution units. The TDP is 45. It uses Intel BGA 1744 and its part number is SRQ6V.

The architectural split is clear. AMD uses a smaller process node, a smaller die, a lower TDP, and a lower boost clock. Intel uses more cores, a higher boost clock, more L2 per core, more L3, and a newer PCIe generation. Intel supports DDR4 in addition to DDR5, while AMD adds LPDDR5X and ECC. AMD has a higher memory bandwidth figure, 89.6 GB/s, while Intel has no recorded bandwidth number.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core 9 270H wins in every measured category because it is the only part with recorded benchmark results. The Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 18000 and single-core score of 2040 position it strongly. The PassMark multi-thread score of 28764 and single-thread score of 3944 confirm consistent performance across both heavily threaded and lightly threaded workloads. The Intel part also shows a 86th percentile against all CPUs, meaning it outperforms 86% of the processors in the database.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 has no benchmark wins because no benchmark data exists. Its advantages are architectural. The 4 nm node indicates a denser, more power-efficient design relative to the 10 nm Intel part. The 28 TDP is lower than Intel's 45 TDP, suggesting the AMD part is designed for thermally constrained embedded systems. The ECC memory support is a feature absent from the Intel part, which matters for reliability-sensitive workloads. The Radeon 880M integrated graphics may deliver different graphics performance than Intel's Iris Xe Graphics with 96 execution units, but no scores exist to quantify the difference.

For a user selecting between the two, the Intel part has documented performance across Cinebench R15, R20, R23, and PassMark tests. The AMD part offers ECC, a smaller die, a lower TDP, and a newer process node, but none of those translate into a measured score in the database.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database records no head-to-head benchmark results between the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 and the Intel Core 9 270H. The wins count is 0 for both parts. The only benchmark data available belongs to the Intel Core 9 270H, which has a complete Cinebench and PassMark profile.

The Intel Core 9 270H delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 18000 and a single-core score of 2040. In Cinebench R20, the multi-core score is 10268 and the single-core score is 1449. In the older Cinebench R15, the multi-core score is 2464 and the single-core score is 347. These results show a consistent scaling pattern across Cinebench versions, with the multi-core scores reflecting the 14-core configuration.

In PassMark tests, the Intel part scores 28764 in multi-thread and 3944 in single-thread. The integer math score is 97654, and the floating point math score is 70640. The extended instructions score is 20079, and the data compression score is 333785. The data encryption score is 19369. The find prime numbers score is 112, and the random string sorting score is 36867. The physics score is 1966. These PassMark results cover a range of computational patterns, from encryption to sorting to prime number generation.

The Intel part's nearest rivals in the database are the Intel Core Ultra 9 285H with an average score of 38312 and a delta of 0.1%, the Intel Xeon w3-2525 with an average score of 38392 and a delta of -0.1%, the Intel Core i5-13600HX with an average score of 38261 and a delta of 0.2%, and the AMD Ryzen 7 250 with an average score of 38221 and a delta of 0.3%. These deltas are all under one percent, meaning the Intel Core 9 270H is effectively tied with four other processors in average score. The largest gap is 0.3% versus the AMD Ryzen 7 250, which is within measurement noise for most workloads.

Since the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 has no scores, there is no basis for a head-to-head comparison. The Intel part stands alone in this pairing with measurable data. Its 86th percentile ranking places it above the median processor in the database. The AMD part has a 50th percentile, but that value is not supported by any benchmark results, so it does not reflect measured performance. The Intel Core 9 270H is the only processor in this comparison with a verifiable performance profile.
