AMD Ryzen Embedded 9950X3D vs Intel Core i7-14701TE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The Intel Core i7-14701TE and AMD Ryzen Embedded 9950X3D do not share any recorded benchmark entries in the database. The Intel part carries a full set of Cinebench and PassMark results, while the AMD processor has no benchmark scores recorded at all. This makes direct numeric comparison impossible for the AMD side. The data available for the Intel chip, however, provides a clear picture of its measured performance profile.

In Cinebench R15, the Intel Core i7-14701TE records a multicore score of 1716 and a singlecore score of 242. Moving to Cinebench R20, the multicore result jumps to 7154, with singlecore at 1010. Cinebench R23 shows a multicore score of 17035 and a singlecore score of 2405. The scaling between R20 and R23 multicore is consistent with the expected workload expansion, showing a 138% increase in multicore performance from R20 to R23, while singlecore improves by 138% as well, from 1010 to 2405.

PassMark results for the Intel chip are extensive. The multithread score is 20042, and single-thread performance is 2637. The integer math test delivers 65792, floating point math reaches 50219, and extended instructions score 14354. Data compression scores 220520, while data encryption manages 11699. Find prime numbers returns 143, random string sorting scores 22760, and physics reaches 1860.

The AMD Ryzen Embedded 9950X3D has an avgBenchmarkScore of 0 and a percentileVsAllCpus of 50. The Intel Core i7-14701TE has an avgBenchmarkScore of 26013 and a percentileVsAllCpus of 78. The Intel chip sits in the 78th percentile of all CPUs in the database, while the AMD part is exactly at the 50th percentile despite having no recorded benchmark scores, which indicates the percentile is derived from specification-based placement rather than measured results.

The nearest rivals for the Intel chip are all AMD processors. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 scores 25981, which is 0.1% below the Intel part. The AMD Ryzen 5 8640HS scores 26106, which is 0.4% above. The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 5655GE scores 25880, 0.5% below. The AMD Ryzen 5 8540U scores 26187, 0.7% above. These deltas are all within a single percentage point, placing the Intel Core i7-14701TE in a tightly contested performance band among these mobile and embedded AMD parts.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Core i7-14701TE wins in every measurable category because it is the only processor in this comparison with recorded benchmark data. Its strengths are concentrated in multithreaded workloads. The Cinebench R23 multicore score of 17035 indicates strong parallel throughput, and the PassMark multithread score of 20042 reinforces that finding. Integer math at 65792 and floating point math at 50219 show balanced compute capability across different arithmetic types. The data compression score of 220520 is notably high, suggesting strong memory subsystem performance for compression algorithms.

The AMD Ryzen Embedded 9950X3D cannot claim any benchmark wins because no scores are recorded for it in the database. Its specification sheet, however, suggests theoretical advantages. The AMD part features 16 cores and 32 threads versus the Intel part's 8 cores and 16 threads. The AMD base clock of 4.30 GHz and boost clock of 5.70 GHz exceed the Intel base of 2.10 GHz and boost of 5.20 GHz. The AMD processor also has 128 MB of L3 cache, while the Intel part has 33 MB shared L3. These specification differences imply that the AMD processor would likely excel in cache-sensitive workloads and heavily threaded applications, but the database contains no measurements to confirm this.

The Intel part wins on efficiency metrics based on recorded specifications. Its TDP is 45 watts, while the AMD part is rated at 170 watts. The Intel processor also supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, while the AMD part supports only DDR5. The Intel chip has an unlocked multiplier set to false, meaning it is locked, while the AMD chip has an unlocked multiplier set to true.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen Embedded 9950X3D belongs to the 9000 series and uses the Granite Ridge codename. Its generation is listed as Ryzen Embedded with Zen 5 architecture. The process node is 4 nm, fabricated by TSMC. The transistor count is 16,630 million, and the die size is listed as 2x 70.6 mm², indicating a chiplet design with two CCDs.
