AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i vs Intel Core i9-14900
The database contains a complete benchmark record for the Intel Core i9-14900, while the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i has no recorded benchmark scores or rival comparisons. The Intel part sits at the 92nd percentile of all CPUs tracked, with an average benchmark score of 58115. Its nearest rivals in the database include the Intel Xeon Platinum 8260M at 58323 (0.4% higher), the AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D at 58386 (0.5% higher), and the Intel Xeon w5-2545 at 58504 (0.7% higher). The AMD EPYC 9015 trails it by 1%. The P185i, by contrast, has a percentile rank of 50 and an average score of 0, making direct numeric comparison impossible on measured workloads.
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
Because the P185i has no benchmark entries, the head-to-head comparison relies entirely on the i9-14900’s recorded results. The i9-14900 delivers a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 31070 and a single-core score of 2212. In Cinebench R20, it records 15910 multicore and 2245 single-core. The R15 test shows 4793 multicore and 315 single-core. Geekbench results stand at 18495 multicore and 2488 single-core.
The PassMark suite provides a broader workload breakdown. The i9-14900 scores 44578 in multithread tests and 4323 in single-thread tests. Integer math reaches 175010, floating point math hits 120262, and extended instructions score 30624. Data compression records 550271, data encryption scores 33540, and random string sorting finishes at 61060. Physics tests score 2486, and prime number finding scores 188.
The P185i’s absence from the benchmark database means no wins can be assigned to it. The i9-14900’s 92nd percentile ranking confirms it outperforms the vast majority of recorded CPUs, but the data does not permit a direct delta percentage against the AMD part. The P185i’s 50th percentile rank appears in the database, but that figure is not tied to any measured score, so it should not be read as a performance comparison. For any workload represented in the benchmark suite, the i9-14900 has documented scores, and the P185i has none.
Architecture Differences
The two processors come from fundamentally different design targets. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i uses the Gorgon Point codename and belongs to the Ryzen AI Embedded generation built on Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores. It is fabricated on a 4 nm process at TSMC, with a die size of 233 mm². The Intel Core i9-14900 uses the Raptor Lake architecture, specifically Raptor Lake-R, and belongs to the Core 14th Gen family built on the Raptor Lake Refresh generation. It is fabricated on a 10 nm process at Intel with a die size of 257 mm².
Core counts differ sharply. The AMD part has 12 cores and 24 threads, while the Intel part has 24 cores and 32 threads. Both start at a base clock of 2.00 GHz, but the boost clocks diverge: the P185i reaches 5.10 GHz, while the i9-14900 boosts to 5.80 GHz.
Cache layouts also differ. The P185i uses 80 KB of L1 per core and 1 MB of L2 per core, with 16 MB of L3 cache. The i9-14900 also uses 80 KB of L1 per core but doubles L2 to 2 MB per core, and its L3 cache is 36 MB shared. The Intel part therefore carries substantially more aggregate cache.
Memory support separates them further. The P185i supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X in a dual-channel configuration with a measured memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The i9-14900 supports both DDR4 and DDR5 in dual-channel mode, with no bandwidth figure recorded in the database. Both support ECC memory. PCIe generations differ: the AMD part provides Gen 4 with 16 lanes from the CPU, while the Intel part provides Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU.
Integrated graphics differ as well. The P185i uses the Radeon 890M, while the i9-14900 uses UHD Graphics 770. The AMD part is a mobile market segment product on Socket FP8, while the Intel part is a desktop product on Socket 1700. The i9-14900 has a launch MSRP of $549. The P185i has no recorded launch MSRP. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier. The i9-14900 has a TDP of 65, while the P185i has a TDP of 28.

Where Each One Wins
The i9-14900 wins on every measurable axis in the database. It has more cores, more threads, a higher boost clock, more L2 and L3 cache, and a newer PCIe generation. Its benchmark scores place it at the 92nd percentile of all CPUs, with strong results across Cinebench R15, R20, R23, Geekbench, and the full PassMark suite. The multithread score of 44578 and the Cinebench R23 multicore score of 31070 indicate heavy parallel workloads benefit clearly from the 24-core, 32-thread configuration. Single-thread performance is also solid, with a Geekbench single-core score of 2488 and a PassMark single-thread score of 4323.
The P185i cannot claim a benchmark win because the database has no scores for it. Its advantages are structural rather than measured. It uses a 4 nm process, which is denser than the Intel 10 nm node. It supports LPDDR5X memory in addition to DDR5, which suits low-power mobile designs. Its TDP of 28 is less than half the i9-14900’s 65, making it more appropriate for thermally constrained systems. Its integrated Radeon 890M is a different graphics solution than Intel’s UHD Graphics 770, though no graphics benchmarks exist in the database for either part. The recorded memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s gives the AMD part a defined memory throughput figure, something the Intel part lacks in the database.
The i9-14900’s nearest rivals in the database, the Intel Xeon Platinum 8260M, AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D, Intel Xeon w5-2545, and AMD EPYC 9015, all score within 0.7% of it in either direction. That places the i9-14900 in a tight performance cluster among high-end server and workstation processors. The P185i has no such rivals recorded.
The Verdict
The Intel Core i9-14900 is the only part in this comparison with measured performance data. Its 92nd percentile rank, average benchmark score of 58115, and comprehensive scores across Cinebench, Geekbench, and PassMark make it the clear choice for any workload where recorded performance matters. It also offers more cores, more threads, a higher boost clock, more cache, and PCIe Gen 5 support, all of which are documented in the database.
The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185i presents a different profile. It is a mobile processor with a lower TDP, a smaller process node, LPDDR5X support, and a defined memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. Those characteristics suit embedded and mobile applications, but the database contains no benchmark evidence for it. Its 50th percentile rank is not supported by any measured score.
For builders choosing between these two, the data supports the i9-14900 for any performance-sensitive desktop use. The P185i relies on its specification sheet alone. Without benchmark entries, the database cannot confirm any performance advantage for the AMD part. The i9-14900’s launch MSRP of $549 applies to the Intel processor. The P185i has no launch MSRP recorded. The verdict from the recorded data is unambiguous: the i9-14900 is the documented performer, and the P185i remains an unmeasured specification.
