Intel Core 5 223PTE vs Intel Core i7-14701TE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The Intel Core i7-14701TE carries the only recorded benchmark scores in the database, so the head-to-head comparison is defined entirely by its results. The Intel Core 5 223PTE has no benchmark entries, meaning the data cannot produce a direct score-for-score comparison between the two parts. What the database does show is a complete benchmark profile for the i7-14701TE, and its percentile rank of 78 versus all CPUs in the database.

In Cinebench R23, the i7-14701TE records a multicore score of 17035 and a single-core score of 2405. The R20 run shows 7154 multicore and 1010 single-core. The R15 run shows 1716 multicore and 242 single-core. These results place the chip firmly in the upper portion of the database, sitting at the 78th percentile. Its average benchmark score of 26013 is nearly identical to the nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen AI 5 340, which scores 25981 with a delta of 0.1 percent. The i7-14701TE also sits within 1 percent of the AMD Ryzen 5 8640HS (26106, delta -0.4 percent), the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 5655GE (25880, delta 0.5 percent), and the AMD Ryzen 5 8540U (26187, delta -0.7 percent). This is a tightly clustered group, with all four rivals within a 0.7 percent band of the Intel chip.

Passmark results for the i7-14701TE break down the workload strengths. Multithread performance sits at 20042, while single-thread performance is 2637. Integer math scores 65792, floating point math scores 50219, and extended instructions score 14354. Data compression scores 220520, data encryption scores 11699, and random string sorting scores 22760. Find prime numbers scores 143, and physics scores 1860. The gap between integer math and floating point math, roughly 31 percent in favor of integer operations, indicates the chip is more heavily optimized for general-purpose integer workloads than for heavy floating-point compute.

Because the Core 5 223PTE has no recorded benchmarks, the data cannot establish a win count. The winsA and winsB fields both show zero, which means no head-to-head benchmark entries exist in the database. The Core 5 223PTE also has an average benchmark score of zero and no nearest rivals listed, so the only quantitative context comes from its specs and the complete i7-14701TE profile.

The Verdict

The recorded data clearly favors the Intel Core i7-14701TE for anyone who wants verified performance. It holds a 78th percentile ranking, an average benchmark score of 26013, and a full set of Cinebench and Passmark results covering multithread, single-thread, integer, floating point, compression, encryption, and physics workloads. The Core 5 223PTE has no benchmark data at all, so there is no measured basis to claim it outperforms the i7-14701TE in any workload.

The Core 5 223PTE is the better choice on paper for users who prioritize the highest boost clock, the higher base clock, the newer release date, and a lower launch MSRP of $232. Its 5.40 GHz boost clock and 2.30 GHz base clock exceed the i7-14701TE's 5.20 GHz and 2.10 GHz. It also lists a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s, a figure the i7-14701TE does not record.

The i7-14701TE is the better choice for users who need a larger L3 cache, since its 33 MB shared cache is 9 MB larger than the Core 5 223PTE's 24 MB. It is also the only one of the two with a die size listed at 257 mm². For workloads like data compression, where the i7-14701TE scores 220520 in Passmark, the measured results give clear confidence. For users who cannot rely on unmeasured claims, the i7-14701TE is the only part with database evidence of performance.

The Core 5 223PTE is a newer part with a higher clock ceiling and a lower launch price, but the lack of benchmark entries means its real-world standing cannot be quantified.
