Where Each One Wins
The workload split follows the same pattern. The Core 5 223PE wins all 17 shared tests, so it takes the multi-threaded, single-threaded, math, encryption, compression, and physics categories. The largest wins are in prime-number generation and physics simulation. The Core i5-14400F has no shared-test wins. Its only unique benchmark entries are Geekbench multicore and singlecore, with scores of 11268 and 2058. The Core 5 223PE has no Geekbench entry in the database, so those scores cannot be compared directly. In the shared tests, the Core 5 223PE leads by roughly 22% across Cinebench and Passmark multithread, by 14% in Passmark single-thread, and by between 8.8% and 9.9% in data compression, encryption, and random string sorting.

Both processors are built on Intel's 10 nm process at Intel's foundry and fit Intel Socket 1700. The architectural split is between Bartlett Lake and Raptor Lake. The Core 5 223PE is listed under generation "Core 5 (Bartlett Lake)" with no separate architecture field; the Core i5-14400F is listed as Raptor Lake with codename Raptor Lake-R and generation "Core i5 (Raptor Lake Refresh)".
The Core i5-14400F has 10 cores and 16 threads, while the Core 5 223PE has 8 cores and 16 threads. L1 cache is identical at 80 KB per core. L2 cache differs: 2 MB per core on the Core 5 223PE versus 1.25 MB per core on the Core i5-14400F. L3 cache is 24 MB shared versus 20 MB shared. The Core 5 223PE integrates UHD Graphics 730, while the Core i5-14400F lists N/A. Memory support, dual-channel bus, ECC, PCIe Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes, TDP, and locked multiplier are shared. The Core 5 223PE has a recorded memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s; the Core i5-14400F has no recorded memory bandwidth. The Core i5-14400F has a recorded die size of 215 mm², while no die size is recorded for the Core 5 223PE.
The Verdict
The data gives the Core 5 223PE the performance win in every shared test. Its average benchmark score of 40585 and 87th percentile rank exceed the Core i5-14400F's 32279 and 83rd percentile. The Core i5-14400F does provide 10 physical cores to the Core 5 223PE's 8, but the Core 5 223PE has a higher base clock, a higher boost clock, more L2 per core, more shared L3, and a recorded memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. The Core i5-14400F's only unmatched benchmark data is Geekbench, with 11268 multicore and 2058 singlecore. The recorded performance profile therefore points to the Core 5 223PE.
