AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS vs Intel Core 9 273PE Comparison

The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS and Intel Core 9 273PE occupy very different positions in the database, with the Intel part holding a decisive performance advantage across every recorded benchmark. The Intel Core 9 273PE achieves an average benchmark score of 49,845, placing it in the 90th percentile of all CPUs, while the AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS sits at the 50th percentile with a score of zero in the recorded data, indicating that no benchmark results are available for the AMD part. This absence of direct measurements means the comparison relies entirely on the Intel chip's extensive benchmark suite and its nearest rival data.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results between the AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS and the Intel Core 9 273PE. However, the Intel Core 9 273PE has a full set of recorded scores across Cinebench and Passmark tests, while the AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS has no benchmark entries at all. This asymmetry makes a direct numerical comparison impossible; instead, the Intel part's absolute scores define its performance tier.

The Intel Core 9 273PE delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 31,288 and a single-core score of 4,417. In Cinebench R20, it records 13,140 multi-core and 1,855 single-core, while in the older R15 test it scores 3,153 multi-core and 445 single-core. These results show a strong scaling pattern across the three Cinebench versions, with multi-core performance improving substantially as the workload scales.

In Passmark tests, the Intel chip shows particular strengths in data compression with a score of 405,885, integer math at 139,410, floating point math at 107,884, and multithread performance at 36,810. The single-thread score of 3,650 indicates solid per-core efficiency, while extended instructions score 24,630, data encryption 22,719, random string sorting 45,098, and physics 3,120. The find prime numbers score of 203 is notably lower, reflecting the specific nature of that workload.

The nearest rivals for the Intel Core 9 273PE provide context for its standing. The AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 388 scores 49,796, a 0.1% difference, making it essentially a statistical tie. The Intel Core i5-14600KF scores 49,394, placing the 273PE 0.9% higher. The Intel Core i9-13980HX scores 50,398, putting the 273PE 1.1% lower, and the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 370 scores 50,448, with the 273PE 1.2% lower. These margins are all within a narrow band, indicating that the Core 9 273PE sits in a highly competitive performance cluster.

Architecture Differences

The two processors use fundamentally different architectures. The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS is built on Zen 4 architecture with the Hawk Point codename, part of the 8000 series, while the Intel Core 9 273PE uses Bartlett Lake as its codename and is part of the Core 9 generation. The AMD chip is fabricated on a 4 nm process at TSMC with 25,000 million transistors on a 178 mm² die. The Intel chip uses a 10 nm process at Intel's own foundry, with no transistor count or die size recorded in the database.

Cache structures differ significantly. The AMD part allocates 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 16 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel part uses 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 2 MB of L2 cache per core, and 36 MB of shared L3 cache. The Intel chip provides more cache at every level, with more than double the L3 capacity.

Memory support diverges as well. The AMD processor supports only DDR5 memory, while the Intel processor supports both DDR4 and DDR5. Both use a dual-channel memory bus and record the same memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. Both processors support ECC memory, which is notable for embedded and workstation use cases.

PCIe implementation differs in both generation and lane count. The AMD part uses PCIe Gen 4 with 20 CPU-only lanes, while the Intel part uses PCIe Gen 5 with 16 CPU-only lanes. The Intel chip's newer PCIe generation offers higher per-lane bandwidth, while the AMD chip offers more lanes.

Integrated graphics also differ. The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS includes the Radeon 780M, while the Intel Core 9 273PE includes UHD Graphics 730. The database records no benchmark scores for either integrated GPU, so no performance comparison is possible from the available data.

Specification Differences

The core counts differ, with the Intel Core 9 273PE offering 12 cores and 24 threads versus 8 cores and 16 threads for the AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS. Base clocks are 2.30 GHz for the Intel part and 3.80 GHz for the AMD part, a significant difference in favor of the AMD chip at the base level. Boost clocks reverse the order, with the Intel chip reaching 5.70 GHz versus 5.10 GHz for the AMD chip.

Thermal design power differs, with the Intel chip rated at 65 W and the AMD chip at 45 W. The Intel processor uses Intel Socket 1700, while the AMD processor uses AMD Socket FP8. The AMD chip is classified as a Mobile segment part, while the Intel chip is classified as Desktop. Both processors have locked multipliers.

Cache configurations differ as detailed above, with the Intel chip carrying larger L1, L2, and L3 caches. The Intel part also supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, while the AMD part supports only DDR5. The AMD processor uses PCIe Gen 4 with 20 lanes, while the Intel processor uses PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes.

Release dates are recorded for both parts. The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS was released on April 1, 2024, while the Intel Core 9 273PE was released on March 8, 2026. The Intel chip has a launch MSRP of $549, while the AMD chip has no recorded launch MSRP. Both processors are marked as Active in production status.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core 9 273PE wins in every measurable performance category because it is the only processor with recorded benchmark data. Its Cinebench results show strong multi-core scaling, with the R23 multi-core score of 31,288 representing a substantial workload capability. The Passmark multithread score of 36,810 and data compression score of 405,885 indicate robust throughput for parallel tasks.

The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS cannot claim any benchmark wins from the database, but its specifications suggest different strengths. Its higher base clock of 3.80 GHz versus 2.30 GHz for the Intel part implies better performance in lightly threaded tasks that rely on base frequency. Its lower TDP of 45 W versus 65 W indicates lower power draw, which could benefit thermally constrained embedded applications. Its 20 PCIe Gen 4 lanes versus 16 PCIe Gen 5 lanes offer more total lane count, though at an older generation.

The Intel part's advantages include 12 cores versus 8, 24 threads versus 16, larger cache at all levels, support for both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, a newer PCIe generation, a higher boost clock, and a higher average benchmark score. Its percentile ranking of 90 versus 50 for the AMD part places it in a much higher performance tier.

The Verdict

The recorded data shows a clear performance hierarchy. The Intel Core 9 273PE delivers an average benchmark score of 49,845 and sits in the 90th percentile of all CPUs, while the AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS has no recorded benchmark scores and sits in the 50th percentile. The Intel part's Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 31,288 and single-core score of 4,417, combined with its Passmark multithread score of 36,810, establish it as a high-performance processor.

The nearest rival data confirms the Intel chip's competitive position. It is within 0.1% of the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 388, 0.9% above the Intel Core i5-14600KF, and within 1.2% of both the Intel Core i9-13980HX and AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 370. This clustering indicates that the Core 9 273PE performs at the level of top-tier mobile and desktop processors.

The AMD Ryzen Embedded 8845HS offers a different specification profile with its higher base clock, lower TDP, and more PCIe lanes, but the absence of benchmark data means its actual performance cannot be quantified in this database. For users prioritizing measured performance, the Intel Core 9 273PE is the only choice with verified scores. For those focused on power efficiency or specific embedded features, the AMD part's specifications may hold appeal, but no data supports a performance verdict in its favor. The database clearly favors the Intel Core 9 273PE.
