The Verdict

The recorded data shows two very different design targets. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174i uses a 4 nm process, 10 cores, 20 threads, a 28 W TDP, and integrates a Radeon 880M GPU. The Intel Core 5 223PE uses a 10 nm process, 8 cores, 16 threads, a 65 W TDP, and integrates UHD Graphics 730. The Intel part is a desktop segment processor on Intel Socket 1700, while the AMD part is a mobile segment processor on AMD Socket FP8.

Benchmark results exist only for the Intel Core 5 223PE in the database. Its average benchmark score is 40585, placing it in the 87th percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rivals include the Intel Core 7 253PE at 40557 (0.1% behind), the Intel Xeon 6357P at 40630 (0.1% ahead), the Intel Core Ultra X7 368H at 40518 (0.2% behind), and the AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 435G at 40718 (0.3% ahead). The Intel Core 5 223PE sits in a tight performance cluster where all four rivals are within 0.3% of its average score.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174i has no recorded benchmark scores and no nearest rivals in the database. Its percentile is 50, which is the midpoint of the distribution, but that value is not supported by any measured benchmark entries. The database therefore offers no direct performance comparison for the AMD part. The verdict is straightforward: the Intel Core 5 223PE has comprehensive measured data and a high percentile rank, while the AMD part is a lower-power mobile solution whose performance profile is unmeasured in this database.

For users who require the measured multi-threaded and single-threaded scores, the Intel Core 5 223PE is the only option with supporting evidence. For users who prioritize a 28 W TDP, PCIe Gen 4, and a 4 nm mobile process, the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174i is the documented choice. The Intel part uses PCIe Gen 5 and a 65 W TDP, which indicates a higher-power desktop orientation.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The head-to-head benchmark array is empty. The wins counters are both zero. No direct comparison tests between the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174i and the Intel Core 5 223PE are recorded in the database.

The only measured performance data belongs to the Intel Core 5 223PE. In Cinebench R23, it scores 26455 in multi-core and 3734 in single-core. In Cinebench R20, it scores 11111 in multi-core and 1568 in single-core. In Cinebench R15, it scores 2666 in multi-core and 376 in single-core. These results show a processor with strong scaling across the three Cinebench versions.

PassMark results for the Intel part cover several workloads. Integer math scores 99819. Floating point math scores 76468. Extended instructions score 24672. Data compression scores 346623. Data encryption scores 18448. Random string sorting scores 35798. Find prime numbers scores 159. The multithread score is 31124. The physics score is 2493. The single-thread score is 4219, and a duplicate entry also records 4219 for singlethread.

Relative to its nearest rivals, the Intel Core 5 223PE is effectively a tie with all four. The Intel Core 7 253PE trails by only 0.1%. The Intel Xeon 6357P leads by 0.1%. The Intel Core Ultra X7 368H trails by 0.2%. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 435G leads by 0.3%. These deltas are within measurement noise for a composite average score. The data indicates that the Intel Core 5 223PE performs at the same level as a Xeon-class part and a higher-tier Core 7 part in the aggregate benchmark score.

The average benchmark score of 40585 places the Intel part at the 87th percentile across all CPUs in the database. That percentile is a clear indicator that the measured performance sits above the majority of recorded processors. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P174i, by contrast, has no average benchmark score and no measured tests. Any head-to-head comparison between these two parts cannot be completed from the available data.
