Intel Core 5 223PTE vs Intel Core i9-14900T Comparison

The Verdict

The data in this comparison is one-sided. The Intel Core i9-14900T holds every measurable performance advantage in the database, while the Intel Core 5 223PTE has no recorded benchmark scores of its own. The i9-14900T sits at the 90th percentile of all CPUs tracked, with an average benchmark score of 51015, placing it in the upper tier of the desktop market. The Core 5 223PTE has a 50th percentile ranking and a recorded average benchmark score of 0, which means the database contains no completed tests for that chip. For anyone selecting between these two processors strictly on recorded data, the i9-14900T is the only option with demonstrated performance.

The i9-14900T is a 24-core, 32-thread processor with a 35 TDP, while the Core 5 223PTE is an 8-core, 16-thread part with a 45 TDP. The i9-14900T also carries more L3 cache: 36 MB shared versus 24 MB shared. Both use the same Intel Socket 1700, the same 10 nm process node, the same integrated graphics (UHD Graphics 770), and both support DDR4 and DDR5 memory with ECC enabled. The Core 5 223PTE is a newer release, dated 2026-03-08, versus 2024-01-07 for the i9-14900T, but novelty does not translate into measured superiority in this dataset.

The nearest rivals for the i9-14900T confirm its standing. It is 0.5% ahead of the Intel Core i7-13850HX, 0.6% ahead of the AMD Ryzen 9 5900XT, and 1.1% ahead of the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 370, while trailing the Intel Core Ultra 9 285T by 0.6%. These margins are small, but they show the i9-14900T competing at the top of the current desktop and mobile hybrid field. The Core 5 223PTE has no rival list and no scores, so it cannot be positioned relative to any other processors in the database.

Where Each One Wins

The Core i9-14900T wins every category where data exists. Its 24 cores and 32 threads give it a structural advantage in heavily parallel workloads, and the recorded PassMark and Cinebench scores reflect that. The multithreaded PassMark score of 36239, the integer math score of 138149, and the floating point math score of 92699 all point to a processor built for sustained throughput across many threads. The 30803 in Cinebench R23 multi-core is a strong result for a 35 TDP part, suggesting the efficiency cores are doing substantial work without pushing the package power envelope.

The Core 5 223PTE has no benchmark wins in the database. Its specification sheet shows 8 cores and 16 threads, which would theoretically place it below the i9-14900T in multi-threaded tests, but there are no numbers to confirm any specific outcome. Its 5.40 GHz boost clock is close to the i9-14900T's 5.50 GHz boost, so single-thread performance could be competitive in theory, but the i9-14900T's recorded single-thread scores (438 in Cinebench R15, 1826 in R20, 4348 in R23, 4016 in PassMark single-thread) are the only concrete evidence available. The Core 5 223PTE cannot claim a win in any measured category.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different Intel design families. The Core i9-14900T is built on Raptor Lake, specifically the Raptor Lake-R refresh, and belongs to the Core 14th Gen series. The Core 5 223PTE is a Bartlett Lake part, listed under the Core 5 generation. Both are fabricated on Intel's 10 nm node and use the same Intel Socket 1700, so the platform-level differences are minimal. The die size for the i9-14900T is 257 mm², while the Core 5 223PTE has no die size recorded.

The core configurations differ sharply. The i9-14900T uses 24 cores and 32 threads, which implies a hybrid arrangement of performance and efficiency cores, though the database does not specify the split. The Core 5 223PTE uses 8 cores and 16 threads, a simpler symmetrical layout. L3 cache favors the i9-14900T at 36 MB shared versus 24 MB shared. L1 and L2 cache are identical per core: 80 KB L1 and 2 MB L2. Both processors support DDR4 and DDR5 memory over a dual-channel bus, and both have ECC memory support. The Core 5 223PTE records a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s, while the i9-14900T has no bandwidth figure in the database.

Both parts use Gen 5 PCIe with 16 lanes from the CPU, and both integrate UHD Graphics 770. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier, so overclocking is not a differentiation point. The Core 5 223PTE is the newer product by release date, launching on 2026-03-08, while the i9-14900T launched on 2024-01-07. The production status for both is listed as Active.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

There are no direct head-to-head benchmark results in the database, so the comparison rests on the recorded scores of the i9-14900T and the absence of scores for the Core 5 223PTE. The i9-14900T delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 30803 and a single-core score of 4348. In Cinebench R20, it scores 12937 multi-core and 1826 single-core. In Cinebench R15, it scores 3104 multi-core and 438 single-core. These are the only multi-threaded and single-threaded render scores available in this comparison, and they all belong to the i9-14900T.

The PassMark results for the i9-14900T cover a wide range of workload types. Multithreaded throughput sits at 36239, with integer math at 138149 and floating point math at 92699. Data compression reaches 436066, data encryption reaches 27062, and extended instructions reach 23660. Physics processing scores 2245, random string sorting scores 49484, and prime number finding scores 164. Single-thread performance is 4016 in PassMark. Every one of these numbers is a measurable result for the i9-14900T, and the Core 5 223PTE has no corresponding figure to place against any of them.
