Intel Core 9 273PTE vs Intel Core i9-14901TE Comparison

Where Each One Wins

The benchmark split between these two processors is stark. The Intel Core 9 273PTE carries the entire performance portfolio, with 17 recorded benchmark scores across Cinebench and Passmark suites, while the Intel Core i9-14901TE has no recorded benchmark scores in the database. This means every measurable performance comparison defaults to the Core 9 273PTE, which holds a 100% win rate in the head-to-head category.

The Core 9 273PTE posts a multithreaded Passmark score of 24054, a single-thread score of 3433, and a Cinebench R23 multi-core result of 20445. Its Cinebench R23 single-core score sits at 2886. In integer math, the chip records 82411, and in floating-point math it reaches 60673. Data compression workloads yield 258704, while data encryption produces 14253. The extended instructions test returns 15952, random string sorting hits 28973, and find prime numbers lands at 142. Physics processing records 1917.

The Core i9-14901TE, by contrast, has an empty benchmark array. There are no recorded Cinebench or Passmark results for it. The database shows zero wins for the i9-14901TE against zero wins for the Core 9 273PTE in the head-to-head field, but since the i9-14901TE lacks any scores, its effective competitive position is undefined. The Core 9 273PTE stands as the only processor in this pairing with measurable performance data.

Architecture Differences

Both processors share the Intel Socket 1700 platform, a 10 nm process node, and Intel as both manufacturer and foundry. Each chip uses 80 KB of L1 cache per core and 2 MB of L2 cache per core, with 36 MB of shared L3 cache. Both support DDR4 and DDR5 memory in a dual-channel configuration, both support ECC memory, and both provide PCIe Gen 5 with 16 CPU lanes. Neither has an unlocked multiplier.

The core configurations diverge significantly. The Core 9 273PTE uses 12 cores and 24 threads, running at a 1.40 GHz base clock with a 5.50 GHz boost clock. It belongs to the Bartlett Lake codename family, part of the Core 9 (Bartlett Lake) generation. Its die size is not recorded in the database, and its production status is listed as Active. The release date is 2026-03-08, and its launch MSRP is $549. The integrated graphics are UHD Graphics 730. The memory bandwidth is recorded at 89.6 GB/s.

The Core i9-14901TE uses 8 cores and 16 threads, with a 2.30 GHz base clock and the same 5.50 GHz boost clock. It belongs to the Raptor Lake-R codename, part of the Core i9 (Raptor Lake Refresh) generation, and carries the Raptor Lake architecture name. Its die size is 257 mm². The production status is Active, with a release date of 2024-06-30. The integrated graphics are UHD Graphics 770. The memory bandwidth field is null, meaning no figure is recorded. No launch MSRP is listed.

Both chips operate at 45 W TDP, which places them in the same thermal envelope despite the Core 9 273PTE having 50% more cores and 50% more threads. The base clock difference is notable: the i9-14901TE starts at 2.30 GHz, which is 0.90 GHz higher than the Core 9 273PTE's 1.40 GHz, yet both reach the same 5.50 GHz boost ceiling.

The Core 9 273PTE reaches the 82nd percentile among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 31143. The Core i9-14901TE sits at the 50th percentile, with an average benchmark score of 0, reflecting its lack of recorded results.

The Verdict

The data presents a one-sided comparison. The Intel Core 9 273PTE has substantial recorded performance across rendering, computational, and data-processing workloads, while the Intel Core i9-14901TE has no recorded scores at all. Any selection between the two, based strictly on database measurements, favors the Core 9 273PTE in every measurable category.

The Core 9 273PTE delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 20445 and a single-core score of 2886, figures that place it in the 82nd percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rivals in the database include the Intel Core i7-12700F with an average score of 31081 and a delta of 0.2%, the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS at 31074 with a delta of 0.2%, and the Intel Core i7-13700TE at 31028 with a delta of 0.4%. The Intel Core i7-12650HX trails at 31290 with a delta of -0.5%. These margins are narrow, indicating the Core 9 273PTE performs in a tight competitive cluster despite its high percentile ranking.

The Core i9-14901TE, with no benchmark data, cannot be positioned relative to any of these rivals. Its 50th percentile ranking and zero average score reflect an absence of measurements, not an absence of capability. The architecture details show a capable 8-core, 16-thread Raptor Lake design with a 2.30 GHz base clock and 5.50 GHz boost, but without recorded scores, the database cannot confirm its performance level.

For workloads driven by multi-core throughput, the Core 9 273PTE's 12 cores and 24 threads provide the structural advantage, and the recorded scores confirm it: 8586 in Cinebench R20 multi-core, 2060 in Cinebench R15 multi-core, and 24054 in Passmark multithread. For single-thread performance, the Core 9 273PTE again holds the only recorded numbers, with 3433 in Passmark single-thread and 2886 in Cinebench R23 single-core.

The Core i9-14901TE offers a higher base clock and a larger die size, but these physical characteristics do not translate into recorded benchmark wins. The Core 9 273PTE is the only processor in this pairing with verifiable performance data, and it therefore wins every comparison the database can make.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The head-to-head benchmark list is empty, so no direct side-by-side test results exist for these two processors. However, the Core 9 273PTE's individual benchmark scores provide the only measurable performance data in this comparison.

In Cinebench R23 multi-core, the Core 9 273PTE scores 20445. Its single-core score in the same test is 2886. The Cinebench R20 results show 8586 multi-core and 1212 single-core. The Cinebench R15 results show 2060 multi-core and 290 single-core. These scores span three generations of the Cinebench renderer and consistently favor the Core 9 273PTE, since the Core i9-14901TE has no corresponding results.

In Passmark testing, the Core 9 273PTE records 24054 for multithread and 3433 for single-thread. The integer math score is 82411, and the floating-point math score is 60673. Data compression reaches 258704, data encryption reaches 14253, and extended instructions reach 15952. Random string sorting scores 28973, find prime numbers scores 142, and physics scores 1917.

The Core 9 273PTE's average benchmark score is 31143, placing it in the 82nd percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rivals are tightly clustered: the Intel Core i7-12700F at 31081 with a 0.2% delta, the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS at 31074 with a 0.2% delta, and the Intel Core i7-13700TE at 31028 with a 0.4% delta. The Intel Core i7-12650HX sits at 31290 with a -0.5% delta, meaning it outperforms the Core 9 273PTE by half a percent in average score. These deltas indicate the Core 9 273PTE operates within a competitive band, but it does not dominate its immediate rivals.

The Core i9-14901TE has no average benchmark score, no percentile ranking beyond the 50th percentile default, and no nearest rivals listed. Its absence from the benchmark database means no head-to-head conclusions can be drawn from measured results. Every recorded score in this comparison belongs to the Core 9 273PTE, and every performance category, from Cinebench rendering to Passmark computational tests, reflects that processor's measured output.
