AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i vs Intel Core 7 253PTE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains no shared benchmark submissions for the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i and the Intel Core 7 253PTE. The AMD part has no benchmark entries in the database, leaving its average benchmark score at zero and its percentile at 50. The Intel part, by contrast, carries a full suite of Cinebench and PassMark results, with an average benchmark score of 34962 and a percentile of 84. There are no head-to-head benchmark rows for this pairing, so direct comparisons of identical workloads are not possible from the recorded data.

The Intel Core 7 253PTE delivers measurable scores across multiple rendering and compute tests. In Cinebench R23, it records a multicore score of 21276 and a single-core score of 3003. In Cinebench R20, the multicore result is 8935 and the single-core result is 1261. Cinebench R15 shows a multicore score of 2144 and a single-core score of 302. These results position the chip within a competitive cluster: the nearest rivals in the database are the Intel Core i7-13800H with an average score of 34988 (0.1% higher), the Intel Core i9-12900HX with an average score of 35003 (0.1% higher), the Intel Xeon 6349P with an average score of 34890 (0.2% lower), and the AMD Ryzen 5 150 with an average score of 34881 (0.2% lower). The Intel Core 7 253PTE sits essentially at parity with all four, trailing the two Intel mobile parts by 0.1% and leading the Xeon and the AMD Ryzen 5 150 by 0.2%.

PassMark results for the Intel part cover a wide range of workloads. The multithread score is 25031, while single-thread performance is recorded twice at 3794 under both passmark_single_thread and passmark_singlethread. Integer math scores 119552, floating point math scores 67209, and extended instructions scores 17099. Data compression records 275828, data encryption records 15500, and random string sorting records 28227. Prime number finding is notably low at 82, while physics scores 1318. These figures give the Intel part a strong overall profile, especially in integer math, data compression, and multithreaded rendering.

Because the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i has no benchmark scores in the database, its measured performance cannot be quantified. The database shows zero wins for the AMD part and zero wins for the Intel part in this pairing. The only comparative statements possible come from the Intel side, which shows a clear performance record. The AMD part's 50th percentile versus the Intel part's 84th percentile indicates that the Intel chip sits much higher in the overall distribution of all CPUs, though this percentile gap reflects the absence of AMD data as much as any performance advantage.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core 7 253PTE wins every category where measured data exists. Its Cinebench R23 multicore score of 21276 demonstrates strong rendering throughput, and the single-core score of 3003 shows competitive per-thread performance. PassMark integer math at 119552 and floating point math at 67209 indicate solid general compute capability, while data compression at 275828 is the single highest recorded result across the Intel part's benchmark suite. Data encryption at 15500 and extended instructions at 17099 add further evidence of capable processing in security and vector-heavy workloads.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i cannot be assigned any wins from the database because it has no recorded scores. Its absence from the benchmark set means every workload category defaults to the Intel part by default of data availability. The AMD chip does carry more cores (12 versus 10) and more threads (24 versus 20), which suggests potential advantages in heavily threaded workloads, but no measured scores confirm this. The Intel part's 84th percentile versus all CPUs, compared to the AMD part's 50th percentile, reinforces that the Intel chip occupies a much higher position in the overall CPU distribution.

For users relying on recorded data, the Intel Core 7 253PTE is the only part in this pairing with verifiable performance. Its nearest rival comparisons, all within 0.2%, place it in a tight competitive band with the Core i7-13800H, Core i9-12900HX, Xeon 6349P, and Ryzen 5 150. The AMD part's lack of scores leaves its performance unknown, and no use-case advantage can be substantiated from the database.

Specification Differences

The two processors differ in several core specifications. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i uses 12 cores and 24 threads, while the Intel Core 7 253PTE uses 10 cores and 20 threads. Base clocks are 2.00 GHz for AMD and 1.80 GHz for Intel, but boost clocks favor Intel at 5.40 GHz versus 5.10 GHz for AMD. Thermal design power differs substantially: the AMD part is rated at 28 watts, while the Intel part is rated at 45 watts.

The AMD processor uses AMD Socket FP8, while the Intel processor uses Intel Socket 1700. The Intel part has a larger L2 cache at 2 MB per core versus 1 MB per core for AMD, and a much larger L3 cache at 33 MB shared versus 16 MB for AMD. Both share the same L1 cache size at 80 KB per core. The AMD part lists a die size of 233 mm², while the Intel part has no die size recorded. The process node differs as well: AMD uses a 4 nm node from TSMC, while Intel uses a 10 nm node from its own foundry.

Memory support diverges in type: AMD supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X, while Intel supports DDR4 and DDR5. Both run dual-channel memory with 89.6 GB/s bandwidth. PCIe capabilities differ: the AMD part provides Gen 4 with 16 lanes (CPU only), while the Intel part provides Gen 5 with 16 lanes (CPU only). Integrated graphics differ with the AMD Radeon 890M on the AMD part versus Intel UHD Graphics 730 on the Intel part.

The market segments diverge: AMD is listed as Mobile, while Intel is listed as Desktop. Release dates are close, with AMD on 2026-02-28 and Intel on 2026-03-08. The Intel part has a launch MSRP of $384, while the AMD part has no launch MSRP recorded. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier. The Intel part has a part number of SA4QK, while the AMD part's part number is listed as unknown.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i is built on the Gorgon Point codename and belongs to the Ryzen AI Embedded generation using a hybrid Zen 5 and Zen 5c core design. The Intel Core 7 253PTE uses the Bartlett Lake codename and belongs to the Core 7 generation. The AMD part is fabricated on a 4 nm process at TSMC, while the Intel part uses a 10 nm process at Intel's own foundry. This process gap is significant: the AMD chip's smaller node allows higher transistor density, though the Intel part compensates with a larger shared L3 cache.

Cache architecture differs in structure. The AMD part has 1 MB of L2 per core and 16 MB of L3, while the Intel part has 2 MB of L2 per core and 33 MB of shared L3. The Intel part's L3 cache is more than double the AMD part's L3, which can benefit workloads with large working sets. Both parts use 80 KB of L1 per core, so the per-core L1 hierarchy is identical.

The core count difference favors AMD in raw thread count, with 12 cores and 24 threads versus 10 cores and 20 threads for Intel. However, the Intel part's higher boost clock of 5.40 GHz versus 5.10 GHz gives it a per-thread speed advantage. The AMD part's lower 28 watt TDP versus Intel's 45 watt TDP indicates a more power-efficient design, which aligns with its mobile market segment. The Intel part's desktop segment and higher TDP suggest it is designed for sustained performance in a chassis with more cooling headroom.

Memory architecture also differs. AMD supports LPDDR5X in addition to DDR5, which is typical for mobile platforms, while Intel supports DDR4 and DDR5, which suits desktop flexibility. Both platforms run dual-channel memory at 89.6 GB/s, so raw bandwidth is identical. PCIe generation favors Intel at Gen 5 versus AMD at Gen 4, though both provide 16 CPU-only lanes. The Intel part's newer PCIe standard offers higher transfer rates for compatible devices, while the AMD part's Gen 4 implementation is adequate for most peripherals.

The integrated graphics differ substantially: AMD uses the Radeon 890M, while Intel uses UHD Graphics 730. The Radeon 890M is positioned as a more capable integrated GPU, though no benchmark scores in the database confirm this. Both parts support ECC memory, which is unusual for consumer-oriented chips and suggests embedded or workstation use cases. The release dates are nearly simultaneous, with AMD on 2026-02-28 and Intel on 2026-03-08, so neither part has a meaningful time-to-market advantage.
