Intel Core 7 360 vs Intel Core i5-14401TE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data for the Intel Core 7 360 and the Intel Core i5-14401TE presents an unusual comparison situation. The Core 7 360 has a full suite of benchmark scores across Cinebench and PassMark tests, while the Core i5-14401TE has no benchmark scores recorded in the database. This means the head-to-head comparison can only be expressed as what the Core 7 360 delivers on its own, with context from its nearest rivals.

The Core 7 360 produces a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 13634 and a single-core score of 1924. In Cinebench R20, it reaches 5726 multicore and 808 single-core. The older Cinebench R15 test shows 1374 multicore and 193 single-core. These scores place the processor in the 72nd percentile among all CPUs in the database.

PassMark results for the Core 7 360 show a multithread score of 15544 and a single-thread score of 4274. The processor handles data compression at 142877, data encryption at 11164, and extended instructions at 12390. Floating point math scores 44963, integer math scores 34238, and physics processing scores 1213. Prime number finding produces 120, while random string sorting reaches 17636.

The Core 7 360 achieves an average benchmark score of 18374. Its nearest rival, the Intel Core i3-13100, posts an average score of 18380, which is a 0% delta. The Intel Core 5 330 scores 18345, a 0.2% delta behind the Core 7 360. The Intel Core i3-14100 scores 18318, a 0.3% delta. The Intel Core 3 305 scores 18302, a 0.4% delta. The Core 7 360 effectively sits in a tightly packed cluster with these processors, within a margin of less than half a percent across the entire group.

Because the i5-14401TE has no benchmark entries, the data cannot confirm any direct wins for either processor. The Core 7 360 stands as the only unit with measurable performance data in this pairing.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different design families. The Core 7 360 uses the Wildcat Lake codename and belongs to the Core 5 (Wildcat Lake) generation. It is built on a 3 nm process node. The Core i5-14401TE uses the Raptor Lake architecture with the Raptor Lake-R codename and belongs to the Core i5 (Raptor Lake Refresh) generation. Its process node is 10 nm. Both processors are manufactured by Intel.

The Core 7 360 has 6 cores and 6 threads, meaning it does not use simultaneous multithreading. The Core i5-14401TE has 6 cores and 12 threads, indicating it does use Hyper-Threading technology. This is a fundamental difference in how each processor handles parallel workloads.

Cache layouts differ substantially. The Core 7 360 provides 192 KB of L1 cache per core, 2.5 MB of L2 cache per core, and 6 MB of shared L3 cache. The Core i5-14401TE provides 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 1.25 MB of L2 cache per core, and 20 MB of shared L3 cache. The Core i5-14401TE also has a recorded die size of 215 mm², while the Core 7 360 has no die size listed.

Memory support shows distinct paths. The Core 7 360 supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X memory with a single-channel memory bus and a memory bandwidth of 59.7 GB/s. The Core i5-14401TE supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory with a dual-channel memory bus and no memory bandwidth figure recorded. The Core i5-14401TE supports ECC memory, while the Core 7 360 does not.

PCIe connectivity differs as well. The Core 7 360 offers Gen 4 with 6 lanes from the CPU only. The Core i5-14401TE offers Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU only. Integrated graphics also differ: the Core 7 360 uses Intel Xe3 Graphics with 2 Xe cores, while the Core i5-14401TE uses UHD Graphics 730.

The Core 7 360 targets the mobile segment and uses the Intel BGA 1516 socket. The Core i5-14401TE targets the desktop segment and uses Intel Socket 1700. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier.

Where Each One Wins

The benchmark data only supports wins for the Core 7 360, since the Core i5-14401TE has no recorded scores. The Core 7 360 demonstrates particularly strong single-thread performance with a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1924 and a PassMark single-thread score of 4274. Its single-core results sit near its multicore results in relative terms, which is notable for a processor with only 6 threads.

Multithreaded workloads show the Core 7 360 delivering a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 13634 and a PassMark multithread score of 15544. The data compression result of 142877 is the highest single PassMark value recorded for this processor. The extended instructions score of 12390 and the encryption score of 11164 indicate solid performance in specialized instruction paths.

The Core i5-14401TE cannot be assigned wins from the recorded data. Its 12 threads and dual-channel memory support suggest potential advantages in heavily threaded scenarios and memory bandwidth sensitive applications, but no benchmark scores exist to confirm this. The database simply does not contain measurements for this processor.

The Core 7 360 also holds the advantage in process technology with its 3 nm node versus the 10 nm node of the Core i5-14401TE. The power envelope favors the mobile part as well: the Core 7 360 carries a 15 W TDP, while the Core i5-14401TE carries a 45 W TDP. This makes the Core 7 360 better suited for thermally constrained environments.

The Verdict

The recorded data clearly favors the Intel Core 7 360, but only because the Intel Core i5-14401TE has no benchmark measurements at all. The Core 7 360 delivers a complete performance profile with Cinebench and PassMark scores across single-thread, multithread, and specialized workloads. Its average benchmark score of 18374 places it in the 72nd percentile of all CPUs, and it sits within 0.4% of a group of Intel Core i3 and Core 5 rivals.

The Core i5-14401TE offers architectural features that the Core 7 360 lacks: 12 threads, dual-channel memory, ECC support, Gen 5 PCIe with 16 lanes, and a larger 20 MB L3 cache. It also targets the desktop segment with a 45 W TDP and uses the Socket 1700 platform. These are meaningful specification advantages on paper, but without benchmark scores, the database cannot confirm how they translate into actual performance.

The Core 7 360 is the only processor in this comparison with measured results. It shows strong single-thread capability, a high boost clock of 4.80 GHz, and efficient operation at 15 W. Its 3 nm process node and integrated Xe3 graphics make it a modern mobile part. The i5-14401TE remains an unmeasured desktop option with a different feature set.

For a buyer who needs confirmed performance data, the Core 7 360 is the only choice supported by measurements. For a buyer who specifically requires ECC memory, dual-channel bandwidth, or desktop Socket 1700 compatibility, the Core i5-14401TE offers those features, but its actual performance cannot be assessed from the recorded information. The data supports the Core 7 360 for any workload where benchmark confirmation matters.
