AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i vs Intel Core i7-14650HX Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains a complete benchmark profile for the Intel Core i7-14650HX, while the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i has no recorded benchmark scores. As a result, every available performance comparison is one-sided, with the Intel part holding all measured results. The Core i7-14650HX posts a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 20,454 and a single-core score of 1,969. In Cinebench R20, it scores 11,946 multi-core and 1,686 single-core. The Cinebench R15 results show 3,470.5 multi-core and 285.5 single-core. Geekbench measurements come in at 14,249 multi-core and 2,173 single-core.

Looking at the Passmark suite, the Core i7-14650HX delivers a multi-thread score of 33,495 and a single-thread score of 3,841. The integer math test records 116,661, while floating point math reaches 84,999. Data compression scores 398,418, and data encryption hits 22,917. Extended instructions generate 24,150, random string sorting produces 43,035, and the find prime numbers test yields 152. The physics test completes with a score of 2,202.

The average benchmark score for the Intel chip is 41,576, placing it in the 88th percentile of all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals include the Intel Core Ultra 7 265H at 41,621, which is 0.1% higher, and the Intel Core 7 251TE at 41,650, which is 0.2% higher. The AMD Ryzen 9 5900X scores 41,376, sitting 0.5% below the Core i7-14650HX, while the Intel Core i7-12850HX records 41,779, 0.5% above. These deltas show the Core i7-14650HX clustered tightly among comparable mobile and desktop parts, with performance differences under one percent in every case.

Because the Ryzen AI Embedded P185i has no benchmark entries, the head-to-head comparison cannot show any wins for the AMD part. The recorded data indicates that the Intel processor is the only one with measurable performance, and its percentile ranking confirms it operates in the upper tier of the database. The AMD chip holds a 50th percentile position among all CPUs, but that ranking is based on no actual benchmark scores, so it reflects placement rather than tested output.

Architecture Differences

The two processors diverge sharply in their fundamental designs. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i uses a 4 nm process node from TSMC, while the Intel Core i7-14650HX uses a 10 nm node from Intel. The AMD chip carries the codename Gorgon Point and belongs to the Ryzen AI Embedded generation built on Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. The Intel part uses the Raptor Lake architecture, specifically the Raptor Lake-HX refresh within the Core 14th Gen series.

Core counts differ significantly. The AMD processor features 12 cores and 24 threads, while the Intel processor offers 16 cores and 24 threads. Both support the same thread count, but the Intel chip achieves it with four additional physical cores. Base clocks show the Intel part starting at 2.20 GHz versus 2.00 GHz for the AMD chip, and boost clocks are similarly close, with Intel at 5.20 GHz and AMD at 5.10 GHz.

Cache layouts are distinct. The AMD chip provides 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 16 MB of L3 cache. The Intel chip also has 80 KB of L1 per core, but doubles the L2 to 2 MB per core and offers a larger 30 MB shared L3 cache. The die sizes reflect the different manufacturing approaches, with AMD at 233 mm² and Intel at 257 mm².

Memory support separates the two as well. The AMD processor supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X memory with a dual-channel bus and a recorded memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Intel processor supports DDR4 and DDR5 with a dual-channel bus, but no bandwidth figure is recorded in the database. Both chips support ECC memory.

PCIe capabilities differ by generation. The AMD chip provides PCIe Gen 4 with 16 lanes from the CPU only, while the Intel chip provides PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU only. Integrated graphics also differ, with the AMD part using a Radeon 890M and the Intel part using UHD Graphics 710.

The Intel processor has an unlocked multiplier, while the AMD processor does not. Release dates are separated by roughly two years, with the Intel chip released on 2024-01-07 and the AMD chip on 2026-02-28. The AMD part uses an AMD Socket FP8, while the Intel part uses an Intel BGA 1964 socket. The Intel processor is identified by part number SRMXH, while the AMD part number is listed as unknown. The AMD chip is classified as a 28 TDP part, whereas the Intel chip is a 55 TDP part.

The Verdict

The recorded data points to a clear division between these two processors. The Intel Core i7-14650HX has a full benchmark profile with strong results across every test category. Its average benchmark score of 41,576 places it in the 88th percentile, and its nearest rivals all fall within 0.5% of its score. The Cinebench R23 multi-core result of 20,454 and Geekbench multi-core score of 14,249 indicate a capable multi-threaded performer. The Passmark multi-thread score of 33,495 reinforces that position.

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i, by contrast, has no recorded benchmark scores in the database. Its 50th percentile placement is not derived from tested performance, so no direct performance claims can be made from the available data. The architecture differences do provide context: the AMD chip uses a smaller 4 nm process, supports LPDDR5X memory, and has a documented memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s, but these are specifications, not measured results.

For workloads where benchmark scores matter, the Intel Core i7-14650HX is the only option with verified performance data. Its 16 cores, 30 MB of shared L3 cache, and PCIe Gen 5 support add to its profile. The AMD chip offers a lower TDP of 28 versus 55, a smaller process node, and a Radeon 890M integrated GPU, but without benchmark numbers, its practical performance cannot be quantified from the database.

The choice based strictly on the data favors the Intel part for anyone requiring proven multi-threaded and single-threaded results. The AMD part remains an unmeasured quantity, suitable only for those prioritizing its architectural features such as the 4 nm process, LPDDR5X support, and lower power envelope.
