Intel Core i5-14401TE vs Intel Core Ultra 7 265H Comparison

Intel Core i5-14401TE and Intel Core Ultra 7 265H occupy different positions in Intel’s current lineup. The i5-14401TE is a desktop part built on the Raptor Lake architecture, while the Ultra 7 265H is a mobile processor from the Arrow Lake-H family. The database contains a full benchmark record for the Ultra 7 265H, but no benchmark scores for the i5-14401TE, so direct numerical comparison is limited to specification analysis rather than measured performance. The Ultra 7 265H holds an average benchmark score of 41621 and sits at the 88th percentile among all CPUs, while the i5-14401TE is listed at the 50th percentile with an average score of zero, reflecting the absence of recorded tests rather than actual equivalence.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The head-to-head benchmark table is empty, meaning no direct test results exist for the two processors side by side. However, the Ultra 7 265H has a full suite of results that indicate its performance profile. In Cinebench R23, it scores 19940 in multi-core and 2080 in single-core. These figures represent a substantial capability in both threaded and lightly threaded workloads. The Cinebench R20 results show 12131 multi-core and 1712 single-core, while Cinebench R15 shows 2989 multi-core and 307 single-core. The single-core scores across all three Cinebench versions are relatively strong, suggesting high per-thread performance, which aligns with its boost clock of 5.30 GHz.

The PassMark suite adds more detail. The Ultra 7 265H scores 34027 in multithread, 4334 in single-thread, 109123 in floating point math, 85479 in integer math, 26805 in extended instructions, 334711 in data compression, 26005 in data encryption, 335 in find prime numbers, 2497 in physics, and 40742 in random string sorting. These numbers show a processor that handles compression and encryption efficiently, with data compression particularly high at 334711. The float and integer math scores are also notable, with floating point math more than 27% higher than integer math, indicating a design that favors certain instruction types.

For the i5-14401TE, no benchmark scores are recorded. This absence means the database cannot substantiate any performance claims for that part. The percentile data shows it at 50, which is a median position among all CPUs, but with no actual score, this is a placeholder rather than a measured outcome. In contrast, the Ultra 7 265H’s 88th percentile reflects its recorded 41621 average score. The nearest rivals for the Ultra 7 265H are the Intel Core 7 251TE with an average score of 41650, a difference of negative 0.1 percent, the Intel Core i7-14650HX at 41576, positive 0.1 percent, the Intel Core i7-12850HX at 41779, negative 0.4 percent, and the AMD Ryzen 9 5900X at 41376, positive 0.6 percent. These deltas are tiny, placing the Ultra 7 265H essentially at parity with those four processors in aggregate benchmark performance. The data indicates that the Ultra 7 265H performs within a narrow band of roughly one percent of its closest competitors, with no significant advantage or disadvantage in overall score.

Architecture Differences

The two processors diverge fundamentally in architecture. The i5-14401TE uses Raptor Lake, specifically Raptor Lake-R, and is part of the Core 14th Gen series. It is fabricated on a 10 nm process node at Intel’s own foundry. The Ultra 7 265H uses Arrow Lake, specifically Arrow Lake-H, and belongs to the Core Ultra Series 2. Its process node is 3 nm, and the foundry is TSMC. This process difference is significant, as a smaller node typically allows for higher transistor density and better power efficiency, though the database does not provide transistor counts for either chip. The die size for the i5-14401TE is 215 mm², while the Ultra 7 265H has no die size recorded.

Core configuration differs sharply. The i5-14401TE has 6 cores and 12 threads, indicating hyper-threading support. The Ultra 7 265H has 16 cores and 16 threads, meaning no hyper-threading, so each core corresponds to one thread. This is a 10-core advantage for the Ultra 7 265H in raw core count, though the i5-14401TE’s 12 threads from 6 cores show a different threading strategy. The cache hierarchy also diverges. The i5-14401TE has 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 1.25 MB of L2 cache per core, and 20 MB of shared L3 cache. The Ultra 7 265H has 192 KB of L1 per core, 3 MB of L2 per core, and 24 MB of shared L3. Per-core cache is larger on the Ultra 7 265H, and total L3 is also larger by 4 MB.

Clock speeds favor the Ultra 7 265H. Its base clock is 2.20 GHz, and its boost clock is 5.30 GHz. The i5-14401TE has a base clock of 2.00 GHz and a boost of 4.50 GHz. The boost difference is 0.80 GHz in favor of the Ultra 7 265H. Power draw is stated differently: the i5-14401TE has a TDP of 45, while the Ultra 7 265H has a TDP of 28. This suggests the mobile chip is designed for lower sustained power, despite having more cores and higher clocks. The memory support also differs. The i5-14401TE supports DDR4 and DDR5, while the Ultra 7 265H supports DDR5 and LPDDR5X, and it has a recorded memory bandwidth of 102.4 GB/s. The i5-14401TE does not list a memory bandwidth figure. Both use dual-channel memory buses.

Socket and platform are distinct. The i5-14401TE uses Intel Socket 1700, a desktop socket, while the Ultra 7 265H uses Intel BGA 2049, a soldered mobile package. PCIe lanes differ: the i5-14401TE provides Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU, while the Ultra 7 265H provides Gen 5 with 8 lanes. Integrated graphics are different as well. The i5-14401TE has UHD Graphics 730, while the Ultra 7 265H has Arc Graphics 140T. The market segments are explicitly different: the i5-14401TE is desktop, the Ultra 7 265H is mobile. Release dates also separate them, with the i5-14401TE released on 2024-06-30 and the Ultra 7 265H released on 2025-01-12.

Where Each One Wins

Based on the recorded data, the Ultra 7 265H wins in any scenario where the i5-14401TE has no benchmark results, which is every scenario. The database provides no measured performance for the i5-14401TE, so any inference about its wins must come from specification analysis. The i5-14401TE has a higher TDP at 45 versus 28, which may allow for higher sustained power delivery in a desktop context, but the database does not include thermal or power draw measurements beyond those TDP figures. It also has more PCIe lanes from the CPU, 16 versus 8, which could benefit desktop systems with multiple high-bandwidth devices. The i5-14401TE supports DDR4 in addition to DDR5, giving it compatibility with older memory platforms, while the Ultra 7 265H requires DDR5 or LPDDR5X.

The Ultra 7 265H wins on core count, thread count, clock speeds, cache sizes, process node, and memory bandwidth. It has 16 cores versus 6, a boost clock of 5.30 GHz versus 4.50 GHz, larger L1 and L2 caches per core, and more L3 cache. Its 3 nm process node from TSMC likely contributes to efficiency, though the database does not provide efficiency metrics. The recorded memory bandwidth of 102.4 GB/s gives it a quantifiable advantage in memory throughput, while the i5-14401TE lacks any such figure. The Ultra 7 265H also has a recorded average benchmark score of 41621, placing it at the 88th percentile, while the i5-14401TE is at the 50th percentile with no score.

For single-threaded workloads, the Ultra 7 265H’s higher boost clock and Cinebench single-core scores indicate it would likely lead, but the i5-14401TE’s boost clock is lower, so no advantage is evident. For multi-threaded workloads, the Ultra 7 265H’s 16 cores and 16 threads versus 6 cores and 12 threads suggest a substantial lead, but again, no direct test exists for the i5-14401TE. The data shows the Ultra 7 265H is the only one with measurable performance, so any discussion of wins must be cautious: the i5-14401TE wins only in platform-specific features like socket compatibility and DDR4 support.

The Verdict

The database contains no benchmark evidence for the Intel Core i5-14401TE, so any selection based on measured performance must favor the Intel Core Ultra 7 265H, which has a complete suite of scores and an 88th percentile ranking. The Ultra 7 265H delivers a recorded average score of 41621, and its nearest rivals fall within a range of negative 0.4 to positive 0.6 percent, indicating competitive parity with those parts. The i5-14401TE’s lack of scores means it cannot be assessed against that standard.

For users prioritizing a desktop platform with a specific socket, the i5-14401TE offers Intel Socket 1700 and 16 PCIe lanes from the CPU, along with DDR4 compatibility. These are platform-level advantages that matter for system integration, not for raw performance. The Ultra 7 265H, being mobile, uses BGA 2049 and provides 8 PCIe lanes, but it compensates with a higher boost clock, more cores, larger caches, and a smaller process node. Its TDP is lower at 28 versus 45, which may indicate better power efficiency, though the database does not provide efficiency ratings.

The data suggests the Ultra 7 265H is the stronger processor in every measurable aspect. Its 16 cores and 16 threads, combined with a 5.30 GHz boost clock, give it a clear specification lead over the 6-core, 12-thread i5-14401TE with a 4.50 GHz boost. The cache hierarchy is larger at every level, and memory bandwidth is explicitly recorded at 102.4 GB/s, whereas the i5-14401TE has no such figure. The process node difference, 3 nm from TSMC versus 10 nm from Intel, further separates the two in terms of manufacturing sophistication.

Given the absence of i5-14401TE benchmarks, the verdict is straightforward: the Ultra 7 265H is the only processor with demonstrated performance, and its scores place it in the upper tier of CPUs. The i5-14401TE remains an unmeasured part, and its specifications do not compensate for the lack of recorded results. Anyone requiring a desktop socket or DDR4 support might consider the i5-14401TE for those features, but the data does not support any performance claim for it. The Ultra 7 265H is the empirically verified choice, with a full benchmark profile and a percentile rank that reflects solid standing among all processors.
