AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185 vs Intel Core i5-14600T Comparison

The Verdict

The recorded data shows the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185 as the clear performance leader across nearly every measured workload. It wins 10 of 11 head-to-head benchmark comparisons against the Intel Core i5-14600T, with particularly decisive margins in extended instructions, data compression, and integer math. The Intel part takes only a single win in the physics test, and by a narrow 5.4% margin. The AMD chip also ranks in the 93rd percentile among all CPUs, while the Intel chip sits in the 83rd percentile. The average benchmark score for the AMD processor is 62,839, nearly double the Intel processor's 32,707 average.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185 is the appropriate choice for compute-heavy embedded and mobile workloads where raw throughput matters most. Its 12 cores and 24 threads, paired with a 4 nm TSMC process, deliver substantially higher multithreaded performance while consuming a lower 28 W TDP compared to the Intel chip's 35 W TDP. The Intel Core i5-14600T, with 14 cores and 20 threads on a 10 nm Intel process, remains competitive in physics simulations and offers a larger 24 MB shared L3 cache, but its lower benchmark averages and lower percentile ranking make it the weaker option for general processing tasks.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185 wins in almost every measured category. It delivers the higher multithreaded score, the higher single-thread score, and the higher scores in data compression, data encryption, extended instructions, find prime numbers, floating point math, integer math, and random string sorting. Its 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth and lower 28 W TDP further support its use in mobile and embedded scenarios where power efficiency and throughput matter. The 4 nm TSMC process and Zen 5 / Zen 5c architecture provide the foundation for these results, and the Radeon 890M integrated graphics give it a stronger graphics component than the Intel UHD Graphics 770.

The Intel Core i5-14600T wins only the physics benchmark, with a 5.4% edge over the AMD chip. Its larger 24 MB shared L3 cache and 2 MB L2 per core may contribute to this physics result, as may its 14-core configuration. The Intel chip also offers PCIe Gen 5 connectivity, which is a generation ahead of the AMD chip's Gen 4, and it supports DDR4 memory in addition to DDR5, which provides broader memory compatibility. The Intel part carries a launch MSRP of $255, but the database does not list a launch MSRP for the AMD part.

For workloads that rely heavily on physics simulation, the Intel chip has a measurable but narrow advantage. For all other measured processing tasks, including compression, encryption, math operations, sorting, and multithreaded and single-threaded general performance, the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185 is the stronger processor by margins ranging from 6.2% to 56.3%. The overall benchmark averages, 62,839 versus 32,707, and the percentile rankings, 93rd versus 83rd, confirm that the AMD chip sits in a higher performance tier within the database.
