Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 is built on the Gorgon Point codename, part of the Ryzen AI Embedded generation using a hybrid Zen 5 / Zen 5c core arrangement. It is fabricated on a 4 nm process node by TSMC, with a die size of 233 mm². The Intel Core i7-14700HX comes from the Core 14th Gen series, uses the Raptor Lake architecture under the Raptor Lake-HX codename, and is a Raptor Lake-HX Refresh part. Intel fabricates this chip on a 10 nm process node, with a die size of 257 mm².

The core configurations differ significantly. The AMD part uses 10 cores and 20 threads, a design favoring efficiency given its 28 watt TDP. The Intel part uses 20 cores and 28 threads, reflecting a hybrid performance and efficiency core arrangement typical of Raptor Lake designs. The Intel part also has an unlocked multiplier, while the AMD part is locked. The AMD processor has a production status of Active with a release date of 2026-02-28, while the Intel processor is also Active with a release date of 2024-01-07.

Cache hierarchies diverge notably. Both processors have an L1 cache of 80 KB per core. The AMD part has 1 MB of L2 per core, while the Intel part has 2 MB per core. For L3 cache, the AMD chip has 16 MB total, whereas the Intel chip has 33 MB shared. The Intel part offers more than double the L3 capacity, which can benefit workloads with large working sets.

Memory support shows clear differences. The AMD processor supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X across a dual-channel bus, with a recorded memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel processor supports DDR4 and DDR5 across a dual-channel bus, but no memory bandwidth figure is recorded in the database. PCIe capabilities also differ: the AMD part provides Gen 4 with 16 lanes (CPU only), while the Intel part provides Gen 5 with 16 lanes (CPU only), giving Intel a newer PCIe generation.

Integrated graphics differ as well. The AMD processor uses the Radeon 880M, while the Intel processor uses UHD Graphics 770. The market segment for both is Mobile. The AMD part has a part number listed as unknown, while the Intel part has the part number SRMXG.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark entries between the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 and the Intel Core i7-14700HX. However, the Intel part has a full set of benchmark scores recorded, while the AMD part has no benchmark scores at all in the database. This makes direct numerical comparison of measured performance impossible, but the available data still reveals meaningful positioning.

The Intel Core i7-14700HX records an average benchmark score of 45953 and sits in the 89th percentile against all CPUs. Its nearest rivals include the AMD EPYC 7303 with an average score of 45960 and a delta of 0%, the AMD EPYC 4364P with 45970 and 0%, the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 375 with 46030 and -0.2%, and the Intel Core Ultra 5 235 with 46062 and -0.2%. These deltas show the Intel part is effectively tied with that group, within a 0.2% range.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 has an average benchmark score of 0 and a percentile of 50, with no nearest rivals listed. The absence of recorded benchmarks for the AMD part means the database cannot confirm its real-world performance. The 50th percentile ranking, however, places it at the median of all CPUs, which suggests its expected performance tier is far below the Intel part's 89th percentile.

For the Intel part specifically, the recorded multi-core scores show strong throughput. Cinebench R15 multicore is 3812, Cinebench R20 multicore is 13059, and Cinebench R23 multicore is 24595. Single-core results include Cinebench R15 at 296, Cinebench R20 at 1843, and Cinebench R23 at 2103. Geekbench results show 14390 for multi-core and 2116 for single-core.

PassMark results for the Intel chip cover a range of workloads. Multithread score is 36566, single-thread score is 3947, integer math is 131296, floating point math is 93836, extended instructions is 25718, data compression is 438539, data encryption is 26092, physics is 2252, random string sorting is 48544, and find prime numbers is 165. These figures indicate a processor strong in integer and floating point workloads, with particularly high throughput in data compression.

Since the AMD processor has no recorded benchmark scores, the database cannot compute wins for either side. The winsA and winsB fields both show 0. The practical interpretation is that the Intel part has verified performance data placing it near the top tier, while the AMD part remains unmeasured in this database.

The Verdict

The recorded data shows the Intel Core i7-14700HX as the measured performer. Its 89th percentile ranking, average benchmark score of 45953, and full suite of Cinebench, Geekbench, and PassMark results place it in a high tier. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 has no benchmark scores recorded and sits at the 50th percentile, a gap of 39 percentile points. The Intel part also offers 20 cores versus 10, 28 threads versus 20, a higher boost clock of 5.50 GHz versus 5.00 GHz, and more than double the L3 cache at 33 MB versus 16 MB.

The AMD part does have structural advantages. Its 4 nm process node from TSMC is smaller than Intel's 10 nm node. Its TDP of 28 watts is less than half of Intel's 55 watts, which indicates a lower power envelope. Its memory bandwidth is recorded at 89.6 GB/s, a figure absent for the Intel chip. Its integrated Radeon 880M may offer different graphics capabilities than Intel's UHD Graphics 770, though no benchmark scores confirm this.

For workloads requiring verified multi-core throughput, the data points to the Intel Core i7-14700HX. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 24595 and PassMark multithread score of 36566 are the only such measurements available in the database. The AMD part cannot be compared on these metrics because no scores exist.

For systems constrained by power or thermal budgets, the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174 has a 28 watt TDP versus 55 watts for the Intel part, and its 4 nm process node suggests a smaller manufacturing geometry. The AMD chip also supports LPDDR5X memory, which the Intel part does not, and its recorded memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s gives it a defined memory throughput figure.

The database does not provide enough evidence to declare a performance winner for the AMD part. Users seeking a processor with confirmed high-end benchmark results should reference the Intel Core i7-14700HX. Users prioritizing a lower power envelope and a smaller process node, with the understanding that no benchmark data exists for the AMD part, may consider the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174. The decision rests on whether verified performance or power efficiency matters more, and the data currently supports only the Intel part on performance.
