Analysis: AMD Ryzen Embedded 8640U vs Intel Core 7 360
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark comparisons between the AMD Ryzen Embedded 8640U and the Intel Core 7 360. The head-to-head benchmark array is empty, and neither processor has a wins tally. However, the Intel Core 7 360 has a full suite of individual benchmark scores, while the AMD Ryzen Embedded 8640U has no recorded benchmark scores at all. This asymmetry means a direct numerical comparison cannot be constructed from the available data.
What the database does show is the Intel Core 7 360’s absolute performance profile. In Cinebench R15, it scores 1374 points in multicore and 193 points in single-core. In Cinebench R20, the multicore score rises to 5726, with a single-core score of 808. The Cinebench R23 results show 13634 points multicore and 1924 points single-core. PassMark results include 15544 for multithread, 4274 for single-thread, 44963 for floating point math, 34238 for integer math, 142877 for data compression, 11164 for data encryption, 12390 for extended instructions, 17636 for random string sorting, 1213 for physics, and 120 for find prime numbers.
The Intel Core 7 360’s average benchmark score is 18374, placing it at the 72nd percentile of all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals are the Intel Core i3-13100 with an average score of 18380 and a delta of 0 percent, the Intel Core 5 330 at 18345 with a delta of 0.2 percent, the Intel Core i3-14100 at 18318 with a delta of 0.3 percent, and the Intel Core 3 305 at 18302 with a delta of 0.4 percent. These deltas are extremely tight, all within 0.4 percent, indicating that the Core 7 360 performs essentially on par with these four competitors. The Core i3-13100 is the closest match, with a negligible 6-point difference in average score.
Because the AMD Ryzen Embedded 8640U has no benchmark entries, its percentile ranking of 50 and average score of 0 reflect missing data rather than measured performance. The database cannot produce a meaningful win-loss statement between these two processors. Any claim about which one is faster would require extrapolation beyond the recorded facts, which the database does not support.

Architecture Differences
The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8640U uses the Zen 4 architecture under the codename Hawk Point, belonging to the 8000 series and the Ryzen Embedded generation. It is built on a 4 nm process at TSMC, with 25,000 million transistors and a die size of 178 mm². The Intel Core 7 360 uses the Wildcat Lake codename, belongs to the Core 5 generation, and is built on a 3 nm process at Intel. Its transistor count and die size are not recorded in the database.
Core and thread configurations differ substantially. The AMD processor has 6 cores and 12 threads, while the Intel processor has 6 cores and 6 threads. The AMD part therefore supports simultaneous multithreading, effectively doubling its thread count, whereas the Intel part does not. Cache layouts also diverge. The AMD processor has 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 16 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel processor has 192 KB of L1 per core, 2.5 MB of L2 per core, and 6 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel part has larger per-core L1 and L2 caches, but the AMD part has more than twice the shared L3 capacity.
Memory support differs. The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8640U supports DDR5 with a dual-channel memory bus and a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. It also supports ECC memory. The Intel Core 7 360 supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X, but uses a single-channel memory bus with a memory bandwidth of 59.7 GB/s, and does not support ECC memory. The AMD processor’s dual-channel configuration provides roughly 50 percent more memory bandwidth on paper, though no benchmark data confirms real-world impact.
PCI Express connectivity also differs. The AMD processor provides Gen 4 with 20 lanes from the CPU, while the Intel processor provides Gen 4 with only 6 lanes from the CPU. This gives the AMD part significantly more expansion headroom for peripherals, storage, or accelerators. Integrated graphics differ as well: the AMD processor uses a Radeon 760M, while the Intel processor uses Intel Xe3 Graphics with 2 Xe cores. Neither GPU has recorded benchmark scores in the database.
Clock speeds show a contrast. The AMD processor has a base clock of 3.50 GHz and a boost clock of 4.90 GHz. The Intel processor has a base clock of 1.50 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz. The AMD base clock is more than double the Intel base clock, though the boost clocks are closer, with only a 0.10 GHz difference. Thermal design power also differs: the AMD processor is rated at 28 W, while the Intel processor is rated at 15 W.
Specification Differences
The two processors differ across nearly every specification field in the database. The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8640U belongs to the 8000 series, while the Intel Core 7 360 has no series listed. The AMD part uses AMD Socket FP8, while the Intel part uses Intel BGA 1516. The AMD architecture is Zen 4 with the Hawk Point codename, while the Intel architecture field is null and its codename is Wildcat Lake. The AMD generation is Ryzen Embedded (Zen 4, Hawk Point), while the Intel generation is Core 5 (Wildcat Lake).
Process node and foundry differ: AMD uses 4 nm from TSMC, Intel uses 3 nm from Intel. Transistor count and die size are recorded only for AMD, with 25,000 million transistors and 178 mm². The Intel figures are null. Thread count differs: AMD has 12 threads, Intel has 6. Base clock differs: 3.50 GHz for AMD versus 1.50 GHz for Intel. Boost clock differs slightly: 4.90 GHz versus 4.80 GHz. TDP differs: 28 W versus 15 W.
Cache configuration differs in all three levels. AMD has 64 KB L1 per core, 1 MB L2 per core, and 16 MB shared L3. Intel has 192 KB L1 per core, 2.5 MB L2 per core, and 6 MB shared L3. Memory support differs: AMD supports DDR5 only, Intel supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X. Memory bus differs: AMD is dual-channel, Intel is single-channel. Memory bandwidth differs: 89.6 GB/s for AMD versus 59.7 GB/s for Intel. ECC support differs: AMD supports ECC, Intel does not. PCIe lanes differ: AMD has Gen 4 with 20 lanes, Intel has Gen 4 with 6 lanes. Integrated graphics differ: AMD uses Radeon 760M, Intel uses Intel Xe3 Graphics with 2 Xe cores.
Release dates differ: AMD released on 2024-04-01, Intel on 2026-04-15. The Intel part has a launch MSRP of $426, while the AMD part has no recorded launch MSRP. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier. The AMD part number is unknown, while the Intel part number is SAE3E. Both target the mobile market segment and are in active production.
Where Each One Wins
Based strictly on the recorded data, the Intel Core 7 360 is the only processor with measurable benchmark results. It holds the 72nd percentile position among all CPUs, with an average score of 18374. The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8640U has no benchmark scores, so the database provides no evidence of where it wins in measured performance. Its percentile of 50 and average score of 0 are placeholders for missing data, not indications of actual capability.
The Intel Core 7 360’s recorded strengths lie in its Cinebench and PassMark results. Its Cinebench R23 multicore score of 13634 and PassMark multithread score of 15544 indicate solid threaded throughput for a 6-core, 6-thread part. Its single-thread PassMark score of 4274, combined with a 4.80 GHz boost clock, suggests strong single-threaded responsiveness. The tight delta against the Core i3-13100, Core 5 330, Core i3-14100, and Core 3 305, all within 0.4 percent, places it in a well-established performance band. The data shows it competes directly with those processors.
The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8640U, while lacking benchmark data, has specification advantages that the Intel part does not match. It offers 12 threads versus 6, a higher base clock of 3.50 GHz versus 1.50 GHz, a slightly higher boost clock of 4.90 GHz versus 4.80 GHz, dual-channel memory with 89.6 GB/s versus single-channel with 59.7 GB/s, ECC support, 20 PCIe Gen 4 lanes versus 6, and a larger 16 MB L3 cache versus 6 MB. These specifications indicate a design aimed at higher throughput and broader I/O capability, but without benchmark scores, the database cannot confirm whether those specifications translate into performance wins.
The Intel part’s advantages are its lower 15 W TDP versus 28 W, a smaller 3 nm process versus 4 nm, larger per-core L1 and L2 caches, support for LPDDR5X memory alongside DDR5, and a recorded launch MSRP of $426. The AMD part has no launch MSRP in the database. For use cases where benchmark scores matter, the Intel Core 7 360 is the only option with measured data. For use cases where thread count, memory bandwidth, ECC support, or PCIe lane count matter, the AMD Ryzen Embedded 8640U presents a specification-based argument, but the absence of recorded performance leaves that argument unverified.
