Intel Core 5 220H vs Intel Core i5-14500HX vs Intel Core i7-14650HX

Intel Core 5 220H

► remove from comparison Intel Core 5 220H

The Intel Core 5 220H is a mid-range mobile CPU for laptops of the Raptor Lake-H refresh series (Alder Lake architecture). It was announced in late 2024 and offers 4 of the 6 performance cores possible (P-cores, Golden Cove architecture) and all 8 efficient cores (E-cores, Gracemont architecture). The P-cores support Hyper-Threading for 16 threads when combined with the E-cores. The clock rates range from 2.7 to 4.9 GHz (single core boost, all core up to 4.7 GHz) on the performance cluster and 2 to 3.7 GHz on the efficient cluster. The performance of the E-cores should be similar to old Skylake cores (comparable to the Core i7-6700HQ). All cores can use up to 18 MB L3 cache.

Compared to the similar but older Core i5-13600H, the Core 5 220H is a slightly higher clocked version.

Performance

Thanks to the higher clock speeds, the Core 5 220H can surpass the old Core i5-13600H (e.g., + 100 MHz boost).

Features

The integrated memory controller supports various memory types up to DDR5-5200. The Thread Director (in hardware) can help the operating system to decide which thread to use on the performance or efficient cores for the best performance. For AI tasks, the CPU also integrates GNA 3.0 and DL Boost (via AVX2). Quick Sync in version 8 is the same as in the Rocket Lake CPUs and supports MPEG-2, AVC, VC-1 decode, JPEG, VP8 decode, VP9, HEVC, and AV1 decode in hardware. The CPU now supports PCIe 5.0 x8 for a GPU and two PCIe 4.0 x4 for SSDs. The integrated graphics adapter is based on the Xe architecture and offers 80 of the 96 EUs (Execution Units) possible.

The CPU is rated at 45 W base power (115 W PL2) but most laptops will use a PL1 of around 60 Watt. The SoC is manufactured on an improved 10nm process at Intel, which is known as Intel 7.

Intel Core i5-14500HX

► remove from comparison Intel i5-14500HX

The Intel Core i5-14500HX is a high-end CPU from the Raptor-Lake-HX Refresh series (RPL-H). The CPU offers all 6 performance cores (P-cores, Golden Cove or Raptor Cove architecture) and 8 efficiency cores (E-cores, Gracemont architecture). The P-cores support hyperthreading (therefore 20 threads together) and clock from 2.4 to 4.9 GHz (single-core turbo). The E-cores clock from 1.9 - 3.7 GHz and should offer comparable performance to old Skylake cores (e.g. i7-6920HQ).

Performance

Thanks to the higher clock rates of the Rocket Lake series, the i5-14500HX can reach the level of the old Core i9-12900H and is therefore a very fast mobile CPU that is ideal for all areas of application.

Graphics unit

Like its predecessor, Intel integrates an Intel Xe-based graphics unit. In the 14500HX, all 96 EUs are activated and clock at up to 1.55 GHz.

Features

Like Alder-Lake-H, Raptor-Lake-H has partially integrated WiFi 6E and Thunderbolt 4 (4x). The integrated memory controller now supports faster DDR5-5200 memory. The integrated Gaussian and Neural Accelerator (GNA) is still installed in version 3.0. The Quick Sync 8 media engine is the same as in Rocket Lake and supports MPEG-2, AVC, VC-1 decode, JPEG, VP8 decode, VP9, HEVC and AV1 decode. The chip supports PCIe 5.0 x8 for a dGPU and two PCIe 4.0 x4 for SSDs. The PCH also offers PCIe Gen3 x12.

Power consumption

The Intel Core i5-14500HX is specified with 55 watts TDP (PL2 157 watts). The processor continues to be manufactured using the improved Intel 7 process (10 nm SuperFin).

Intel Core i7-14650HX

► remove from comparison Intel i7-14650HX

The Intel Core i7-14650HX is a high-end CPU based on the new Raptor Lake architecture for large and heavy notebooks. The CPU was introduced at the beginning of 2024 and is similar to the older Core i7-13700HX except for slightly higher CPU clock rates (max 200 MHz).

The total of 24 threads are divided into P-cores and E-cores, which we already know from Alder-Lake. The 13700HX offers 8 performance cores (P-cores) with hyperthreading and 8 efficiency cores (E-cores) without hyperthreading. A total of 20 threads are therefore supported. The P-cores clock from 2.2 to 5.2 GHz (single core) or 4.5 GHz (all cores) and the E-cores from 1.6 to 3.7 GHz. The integrated memory controller supports a maximum of DDR5 with 4800 MHz (and not 5600 MHz like the i9 HX models).

Compared to Alder Lake, the new Raptor Lake architecture offers improved P-cores (Raptor Cove architecture with more cache), more E-cores (same Gracemont architecture) and higher clock rates thanks to the improved Intel 7 process. Furthermore, Intel now supports faster DDR5 main memory in the top models (up to 5600 MHz in the i9).

The performance should be slightly above the older Core i7-13700HX (with the same TDP settings and cooling). This makes the CPU ideal for demanding tasks and games.

The 14650HX continues to be manufactured using Intel's improved 10nm FinFET process (Intel 7 process) and is specified with 55 watts of base power and 157 watts of turbo power.
