AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755G vs Intel Core i7-14701E Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark data splits nearly evenly, with the Intel Core i7-14701E taking 6 wins and the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755G taking 5 wins across the recorded PassMark tests. The most decisive outcome is in the find prime numbers test, where Intel leads by a massive 67% (176 vs. 58). That single result accounts for nearly all of the gap in raw performance deltas between the two processors.

AMD's strongest victories come in data encryption and random string sorting. The Ryzen 7 PRO 5755G scores 19,450 in data encryption, which is 30.9% ahead of Intel's 14,862. In random string sorting, the AMD part records 32,771 versus Intel's 29,158, a 12.4% advantage. These two wins indicate that AMD's Zen 3 architecture handles memory-intensive and cryptographic workloads with notably higher throughput.

The extended instructions test also favors AMD, with a 10.6% lead (20,487 vs. 18,528). Integer math shows an 11% advantage for AMD (90,270 vs. 81,325). The data compression test is close, with AMD winning by just 4.5% (295,730 vs. 282,939). These four wins, combined with the compression result, give AMD a clear pattern of superiority in workloads that rely on data manipulation and arithmetic operations.

Intel answers with decisive wins in physics and floating point math. The physics test shows Intel at 2,399 versus AMD's 1,022, a 57.4% margin. Floating point math favors Intel by 17.9% (61,873 vs. 50,778). The multithread test gives Intel an 8.6% edge (26,112 vs. 23,858), and the single-thread tests show Intel ahead by 21.8% (4,305 vs. 3,366). The prime number test, as noted, is Intel's largest win at 67%.

The overall average benchmark score tells a different story, however. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755G posts an average score of 49,196 across all recorded benchmarks, while the Intel Core i7-14701E averages 33,206. This discrepancy occurs because the AMD part has more recorded PassMark tests in its benchmark list, while Intel's list includes Cinebench R15, R20, and R23 results, which use different scoring scales. The head-to-head PassMark comparison is the more direct measure, and there Intel wins 6 of 11 tests.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from fundamentally different design generations. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755G uses the Zen 3 architecture on the Cezanne codename, fabricated on a 7 nm process by TSMC. It contains 8 cores and 16 threads. The Intel Core i7-14701E uses the Raptor Lake architecture (Raptor Lake-R codename), built on a 10 nm process by Intel, also with 8 cores and 16 threads.

Cache configurations differ significantly. AMD allocates 64 KB of L1 cache per core and 512 KB of L2 per core, with a total of 16 MB of L3. Intel provides 80 KB of L1 per core and 2 MB of L2 per core, with 33 MB of shared L3. The larger L3 cache on Intel likely contributes to its single-thread advantage, while AMD's smaller but faster cache hierarchy supports its encryption and compression strengths.

The integrated graphics differ as well. AMD includes Radeon Vega 8 graphics, while Intel uses UHD Graphics 770. Both are desktop processors with active production status. The AMD part uses Socket AM4, while Intel uses Socket 1700.

Memory support shows a key divergence. AMD supports only DDR4 memory in a dual-channel configuration, with a memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s. Intel supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, also dual-channel, but no bandwidth figure is recorded in the database. Intel also supports ECC memory, which AMD does not.

PCIe capabilities differ substantially. AMD provides PCIe Gen 3 with 16 lanes from the CPU. Intel provides PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU. This gives Intel a significant interface advantage for storage and expansion cards.

The transistor counts and die sizes reflect different manufacturing approaches. AMD reports 10,700 million transistors on a 180 mm² die. Intel reports no transistor count but a die size of 257 mm². The smaller die and denser process give AMD a physical size advantage.

Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier, and neither has a recorded launch MSRP in the database. The AMD part number is 100-000001748, while Intel's is Q49FSRNJK.

The Verdict

The data indicates a clear trade-off between the two processors. The Intel Core i7-14701E is the stronger choice for workloads that benefit from high single-thread performance, physics simulation, and floating point math. Its 21.8% single-thread lead, 57.4% physics advantage, and 17.9% floating point margin make it the better option for lightly threaded applications and simulation tasks.

The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755G excels in data encryption, integer math, extended instructions, and random string sorting. Its 30.9% encryption lead and 11% integer math advantage point to strengths in security-related workloads and general arithmetic processing. The AMD part also holds a narrow 4.5% edge in data compression.

The multithread test favors Intel by 8.6%, which suggests better overall throughput in mixed multithreaded workloads. However, the AMD part posts a higher average benchmark score (49,196 vs. 33,206), though this average includes different benchmark suites and scales.

For users prioritizing single-core responsiveness, physics calculations, or floating point operations, the Intel Core i7-14701E is the data-backed choice. For users focused on encryption, data compression, or integer-heavy processing, the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755G delivers the superior results. The Intel part also offers ECC memory support and PCIe Gen 5, while AMD counters with a smaller die, denser process node, and higher memory bandwidth on DDR4.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755G wins in five specific benchmark categories: data compression, data encryption, extended instructions, integer math, and random string sorting. These results point toward workloads that process large volumes of structured data, perform cryptographic operations, or execute arithmetic-heavy code. The 30.9% encryption advantage is the largest AMD win and suggests a meaningful edge in security applications.

The Intel Core i7-14701E wins in six categories: find prime numbers, floating point math, multithread, physics, and both single-thread tests. The physics win at 57.4% and prime number win at 67% are the two largest margins in the entire comparison. The single-thread advantage of 21.8% indicates that Intel's higher boost clock of 5.40 GHz versus AMD's 4.60 GHz translates directly into faster response in latency-sensitive tasks.

The multithread win for Intel, despite both CPUs having 8 cores and 16 threads, suggests that Intel's larger L3 cache and higher boost clock provide better scaling in mixed workloads. However, AMD's 4.5% win in data compression shows that its architecture can still compete in memory-bandwidth-sensitive tasks, aided by its 51.2 GB/s memory bandwidth on DDR4.

For encryption and security-focused environments, the AMD part is the clear choice. For simulation, rendering, and single-threaded applications, the Intel part dominates. The ECC memory support on Intel also makes it suitable for error-sensitive computing environments that require data integrity guarantees.
