AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8840U vs Intel Core i9-14901TE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark entries for the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8840U versus the Intel Core i9-14901TE. The Intel Core i9-14901TE has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, and the head-to-head comparison table is empty. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8840U, however, has a full set of 17 recorded benchmark scores across Cinebench and Passmark tests, allowing for a detailed analysis of its standalone performance profile.

The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8840U demonstrates its strongest results in the Cinebench R23 multi-core test, where it records a score of 20254 points. Its single-core result in the same test is 2859 points. In Cinebench R20, the multi-core score is 8506 and the single-core score is 1200. The older Cinebench R15 test shows 2041 points multi-core and 288 points single-core.

Passmark results for the AMD part show a multi-thread score of 23850 and a single-thread score of 3641. The data compression test yields 272664 points, while data encryption records 16441. Extended instructions score 19132, and the find prime numbers test produces a score of 76. Floating-point math reaches 50746, and integer math scores 88339. The random string sorting test records 33109 points, and the physics test scores 1174.

The average benchmark score for the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8840U is 32233, placing it in the 83rd percentile among all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals include the Intel Core i9-11900 with an average score of 32226 and a delta of 0 percent, the Intel Core i5-14400F at 32279 with a delta of -0.1 percent, the Intel Core i7-12800H at 32121 with a delta of 0.3 percent, and the Intel Core i5-14400 at 32115 with a delta of 0.4 percent. These deltas indicate that the AMD processor is essentially tied with these four comparable chips, with performance differences of less than half a percent in either direction.

Because the Intel Core i9-14901TE has no recorded scores, direct numerical comparisons cannot be made. The database shows zero wins for either processor in the head-to-head section, reflecting the absence of paired test data. Any analysis of relative performance between these two specific CPUs must rely on their recorded specifications and architecture rather than measured benchmark outcomes.

The Verdict

The benchmark data supports only one processor with measured results: the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8840U. Its 83rd percentile ranking and average score of 32233 place it in the upper tier of all CPUs tracked in the database. The Intel Core i9-14901TE has no benchmark entries, so its performance cannot be verified from recorded measurements.

For users who require verified multi-threaded workload performance, the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8840U provides documented results: 20254 points in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 23850 in Passmark multi-thread. The Intel part offers no such evidence in the database, meaning any performance claim for it would lack measurement support.

The AMD processor also carries a 28 watt TDP versus the Intel processor's 45 watt TDP. For systems where thermal envelope matters, the AMD part consumes less power according to the specification sheet, though no power consumption measurements are recorded in the database.

The Intel Core i9-14901TE does have a higher boost clock at 5.50 GHz compared to 5.10 GHz for the AMD part, and its L3 cache is larger at 36 MB shared versus 16 MB shared. These specification advantages exist on paper, but without benchmark scores, their real-world impact cannot be quantified from the available data.
