AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS vs Intel Core i7-14701TE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows a dominant performance profile for the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS across the majority of benchmark workloads. In the head-to-head comparison, the AMD part wins 15 of 17 tests, with the Intel Core i7-14701TE taking only 2 wins. The margin is not narrow in most cases. In Cinebench R23 multi-core, the AMD scores 24565 against 17035 for Intel, a 44.2% advantage. The single-core R23 result follows the same pattern: 3468 for AMD versus 2405 for Intel, again a 44.2% delta. These are substantial gaps that appear consistently across the entire Cinebench suite.

The PassMark results reinforce the same conclusion. In integer math, the AMD scores 97625 versus 65792, a 48.4% lead. Floating point math shows a narrower but still clear victory: 58965 versus 50219, a 17.4% advantage. Data compression favors AMD by 56% (343952 versus 220520). The largest single delta in the dataset is random string sorting, where AMD leads by 83.9% (41867 versus 22760). Data encryption shows AMD ahead by 75.1% (20487 versus 11699), and extended instructions show a 77.2% lead (25434 versus 14354). Multithreaded performance in PassMark puts AMD at 28572 versus 20042, a 42.6% margin. Single-thread performance in PassMark shows AMD at 3762 versus 2637, a 42.7% advantage.

The Intel part does claim two wins, and they are worth examining closely. In the find prime numbers test, Intel scores 143 against AMD's 87, a 39.2% advantage. This is the largest win for Intel in the entire comparison. In the physics test, Intel scores 1860 versus 1389 for AMD, a 25.3% lead. These two results indicate that the Intel architecture retains an advantage in specific integer-heavy or physics-simulation workloads, but the overall pattern is heavily weighted toward AMD.

The average benchmark score for the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS is 39325, placing it at the 86th percentile among all CPUs in the database. The Intel Core i7-14701TE averages 26013, at the 78th percentile. The delta between the two average scores is approximately 51%.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS is the stronger choice for workloads that depend on sustained multi-threaded throughput. The Cinebench multi-core results, both R20 and R23, show leads of 44.2% over the Intel part. The PassMark multithread score confirms this with a 42.6% advantage. For integer math, the AMD part is 48.4% ahead. For floating point math, it is 17.4% ahead. Data compression workloads favor AMD by 56%. Data encryption favors AMD by 75.1%. Random string sorting favors AMD by 83.9%. Extended instruction workloads favor AMD by 77.2%. These are all compute-heavy tasks that scale with core efficiency and memory bandwidth, and the data indicates the AMD architecture delivers consistently higher performance in those areas.

The Intel Core i7-14701TE wins in two specific workloads. The find prime numbers test, which is a highly sequential integer loop, shows Intel ahead by 39.2%. The physics test, which often emphasizes specific floating-point or simulation patterns, shows Intel ahead by 25.3%. For users whose workloads resemble these patterns, the Intel part has a measurable advantage. However, these wins are isolated. In the broader PassMark suite, the AMD part leads in every other category, including the aggregate multithread and single-thread scores.

For single-threaded responsiveness, the AMD part leads by 42.7% in the PassMark single-thread test and by 44.2% in Cinebench R23 single-core. This suggests that the AMD processor also has the edge in lightly threaded applications like general desktop use, web browsing, and office productivity, although those specific workloads are not directly measured in this dataset.

Specification Differences

The two processors share some basic specifications. Both have 8 cores and 16 threads. Both have a TDP of 45 watts. Both support ECC memory and dual-channel memory buses. Neither has an unlocked multiplier. The release dates differ: the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS was released on 2024-04-15, and the Intel Core i7-14701TE was released on 2024-06-30. The AMD part is marked as a mobile segment product, while the Intel part is marked as desktop.

The clock speeds differ. The AMD base clock is 3.80 GHz and the boost clock is 5.10 GHz. The Intel base clock is 2.10 GHz and the boost clock is 5.20 GHz. The Intel part has a higher boost clock by 0.10 GHz, but a substantially lower base clock. The socket types are different: AMD uses Socket FP7, while Intel uses Socket 1700. The process nodes differ as well. AMD uses a 4 nm process from TSMC, while Intel uses a 10 nm process from Intel. The die size for AMD is 178 mm², while Intel is 257 mm². The transistor count for AMD is listed as 25,000 million, while Intel does not have a recorded transistor count.

Cache configurations differ in every tier. The AMD L1 cache is 64 KB per core, while Intel has 80 KB per core. The AMD L2 cache is 1 MB per core, while Intel has 2 MB per core. The L3 cache is 16 MB shared for AMD, while Intel has 33 MB shared. This gives Intel a larger total cache footprint. Memory support also differs: AMD supports DDR5 only, while Intel supports both DDR4 and DDR5. The AMD memory bandwidth is listed at 89.6 GB/s, while Intel does not have a recorded memory bandwidth figure. PCIe generations differ: AMD uses Gen 4 with 20 lanes (CPU only), while Intel uses Gen 5 with 16 lanes (CPU only). Integrated graphics differ: AMD has Radeon 780M, while Intel has UHD Graphics 770.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS is built on the Zen 4 architecture, with the codename Hawk Point. It belongs to the 8000 series and the Ryzen 7 generation. The process node is 4 nm, manufactured by TSMC. The design uses a shared 16 MB L3 cache and per-core L1 and L2 caches of 64 KB and 1 MB respectively. The integrated graphics solution is the Radeon 780M, which is a higher-tier integrated GPU. The part number is listed as 100-000001316 (FP7r2) and 100-000001387 (FP7). The production status is active.

The Intel Core i7-14701TE is built on the Raptor Lake architecture, with the codename Raptor Lake-R. It belongs to the Core 14th Gen series and the Core i7 generation. The process node is 10 nm, manufactured by Intel. The design uses a larger shared 33 MB L3 cache and per-core L1 and L2 caches of 80 KB and 2 MB respectively. The integrated graphics solution is UHD Graphics 770. The part number is recorded as Q49GSRNJL. The production status is also active.

The architectural differences map directly to the observed benchmark patterns. The AMD part uses a 4 nm process from TSMC, which is a smaller node than Intel's 10 nm process. The AMD part also has a higher base clock (3.80 GHz versus 2.10 GHz), which contributes to its strong single-thread and multi-thread performance across Cinebench and PassMark. The Intel part compensates with a larger cache hierarchy and a slightly higher boost clock (5.20 GHz versus 5.10 GHz), but the benchmark data shows that these advantages do not translate into overall performance wins. The Intel part's wins in find prime numbers and physics suggest that its larger L2 and L3 caches provide a benefit in certain cache-sensitive or branch-heavy workloads. The AMD part's wins across the remaining 15 tests indicate that its smaller process node, higher base clock, and memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s deliver broader performance advantages.

The PCIe differences are also relevant. AMD uses Gen 4 with 20 lanes, while Intel uses Gen 5 with 16 lanes. Gen 5 offers higher per-lane bandwidth in theory, but the AMD part provides more total lanes. For integrated graphics, the Radeon 780M in the AMD part is a more capable GPU solution than the UHD Graphics 770 in the Intel part, although the database does not include direct graphics benchmarks for either processor. The market segment distinction (mobile for AMD, desktop for Intel) is notable, but both parts share the same 45 watt TDP and are listed as active in production.
