AMD Ryzen Embedded 9700X vs Intel Core i7-14700F Comparison

The AMD Ryzen Embedded 9700X and Intel Core i7-14700F are both desktop processors with a 65 TDP rating, but the database treats them very differently. The AMD part has no recorded benchmark scores, while the Intel part has a full suite of Cinebench, Geekbench, and Passmark results. That imbalance defines the comparison: the Intel part can be measured, and the AMD part can only be assessed from its listed specifications.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark entries for these two CPUs. The AMD Ryzen Embedded 9700X has an average benchmark score of 0 and no recorded tests, so it has no measured wins in this comparison. The Intel Core i7-14700F has recorded results in every major test category, and those results become the only measured performance data available.

The Intel part's Cinebench results are 3,540 in R15 multi-core, 499 in R15 single-core, 14,751 in R20 multi-core, 2,082 in R20 single-core, 35,122 in R23 multi-core, and 4,958 in R23 single-core. Geekbench shows 19,620 multi-core and 2,429 single-core. Passmark results include 41,317 multithread, 4,257 single-thread, 155,808 integer math, 107,005 floating point math, 30,144 data encryption, 28,564 extended instructions, 2,455 physics, 55,918 random string sorting, 505,885 data compression, and 176 find prime numbers.

The Intel part's average benchmark score is 53,620, placing it at the 91st percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest recorded rivals are the Intel Xeon 6505P with 53,701 (0.2% ahead), the Intel Xeon Phi 7290 with 53,469 (0.3% behind), the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X with 53,288 (0.6% behind), and the AMD EPYC 7313P with 53,206 (0.8% behind).

Architecture Differences

The AMD part is built on Granite Ridge, using Zen 5 cores, and belongs to the Ryzen Embedded 9000 series. The Intel part is Raptor Lake-R, a Core 14th Gen design from the Raptor Lake Refresh generation. The process nodes differ: AMD uses TSMC's 4 nm process, Intel uses its 10 nm process. The AMD die is 70.6 mm² and carries 8,315 million transistors; the Intel die is 257 mm² and has no transistor count recorded.

Core and thread counts are the biggest structural split. The AMD part has 8 cores and 16 threads; the Intel part has 20 cores and 28 threads. Base clocks are 3.80 for AMD and 2.10 for Intel, while boost clocks are 5.50 and 5.40 respectively. Cache is split as follows: L1 is 80 KB per core on both, L2 is 1 MB per core on AMD versus 2 MB per core on Intel, and L3 is 32 MB shared on AMD versus 33 MB shared on Intel.

Memory support also differs. The AMD part supports DDR5 only, with a dual-channel bus and 89.6 GB/s of memory bandwidth. The Intel part supports DDR4 and DDR5, also dual-channel, with no memory bandwidth recorded. Both list ECC support. On the platform side, AMD uses Socket AM5 and provides PCIe Gen 5 with 24 CPU lanes; Intel uses Socket 1700 and provides PCIe Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes. The AMD part includes Radeon Graphics, while the Intel part lists N/A for integrated graphics. The AMD multiplier is unlocked; the Intel multiplier is locked.

FAQ

Q: Does the AMD Ryzen Embedded 9700X have any recorded benchmark scores?

A: No. The database lists no benchmark entries for the AMD part, and its average benchmark score is 0. The Intel Core i7-14700F has recorded results across Cinebench, Geekbench, and Passmark, with an average benchmark score of 53,620.

Q: Which CPU has more cores and threads?

A: The Intel Core i7-14700F has 20 cores and 28 threads. The AMD Ryzen Embedded 9700X has 8 cores and 16 threads.

Q: Does the AMD part have integrated graphics?

A: Yes, it lists Radeon Graphics. The Intel part lists N/A for integrated graphics.

Q: Are both CPUs unlocked?

A: No. The AMD part has an unlocked multiplier; the Intel part has a locked multiplier.

Q: What memory types do the two CPUs support?

A: The AMD part supports DDR5 only. The Intel part supports DDR4 and DDR5. Both support ECC memory.

Q: What is the Intel part's position among recorded CPUs?

A: It sits at the 91st percentile with an average benchmark score of 53,620. Its nearest recorded rivals are the Intel Xeon 6505P (53,701, 0.2% ahead), Intel Xeon Phi 7290 (53,469, 0.3% behind), AMD Ryzen 9 7900X (53,288, 0.6% behind), and AMD EPYC 7313P (53,206, 0.8% behind).

The Verdict

The recorded data supports a benchmark-based verdict for the Intel Core i7-14700F only. It delivers a 53,620 average benchmark score, a 91st percentile rank, and strong multi-threaded results such as 35,122 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 41,317 in Passmark multithread. The AMD Ryzen Embedded 9700X cannot be assigned a performance verdict from the database because it has no benchmark entries. Its listed specifications give it advantages in process node, memory bandwidth, PCIe lane count, integrated graphics, and unlocked multiplier support. A data-driven selection would use the Intel part for measured benchmark workloads and the AMD part for platform features.
