Architectural Differences

  1. Process NodesStarting, the Ryzen 7 7730U uses TSMC’s 7nm node, while the Raptor Lake i7-1365U uses the Intel 7 node. The Intel 7 is a 10nm manufacturing process, which is roughly equal to TSMC’s 7nm process in transistor density
  2. Core/Thread Counts: The Core i7-1365U houses 10 cores, including 2 P-cores and 8 E-cores. The thread count is 12, as the E-cores don’t have hyperthreading. As for the AMD Ryzen 7 7730U, it has 8 full-power cores along with 16 threads
  3. Clock SpeedsThe Ryzen 7 7730U has a base frequency of 2.0GHz and the boost frequency goes up to 4.5GHz. The Core i7-1365U has a base frequency of 2.4GHz for the P-cores and 1.3GHz for the E-cores, while the boost frequencies shoot up to 5.2GHz and 3.9GHz, respectively. 
  4. Memory Support: The difference in memory support here is that the Core i7-1365U supports DDR5 (up to 5200 MT/s). Furthermore, it supports LPDDR5 (up to 6400 MT/s) and the power-efficient LPDDR5x (up to 6400 MT/s).
  5. TDPThe base TDP of the Core i7-1365U is adjustable between 12 watts and 15 watts. In comparison, it is fixed at 15 watts for the Ryzen 7 7730U. Also, the Core i7-1365U has a boost TDP of 55 watts, while the Ryzen 7 7730U does not have such a rating. But obviously, the Ryzen 7 7730U also draws more than 15 watts at turbo frequency.

In the market for a high-end yet power-efficient laptop? If so, you’ll likely come across Intel’s Core i7-1365U and AMD’s Ryzen 7 7730U CPUs. Today, I’m comparing the Core i7-1365U vs Ryzen 7 7730U to determine the better laptop CPU for you.


Performance Benchmarks 

It’s time to talk performance. We’ll compare the multi-core and single-core scores of both CPUs in three applications. Let’s dive in. 

Cinebench R23

  • Starting with Cinebench R23, the Core i7-1365U scores 9418 points in our multi-core tests. The Ryzen 7 7730U bettered that with 10262 points. The difference is 8.9% according to our benchmarks.
  • On to the single-core scores, the Core i7-1365U is the better CPU with 1756 points over 1436 scored by its AMD competitor. The Core i7-1365U’s lead is 22.2%.

Geekbench 5

  •  In Geekbench 5, we noted that the Core i7-1365U is easily the better CPU as it racks up 9218 multi-core points. The Ryzen 7 7730U falls behind by 24.3%, with 7410 points
  • As for the single-core scores, the Core i7-1365U managed 1709 points compared to 1456 points of the Ryzen 7 7730U. 

Geekbench 6

  • In the multi-core Geekbench 6 test, the Ryzen 7 7730U scored significantly higher (6338 points) than the Core i7-1365U (4094 points). The difference here is 54.8%
  • The Ryzen 7 7730U also scored much higher in the single-core test with 1889 points in contrast to 1128 points of the Core i7-1365U. Here, the AMD CPU has a 67.4% lead

Overall Performances

Let’s sum up the multi-core and single-core performance results. For this purpose, I’ve averaged the scores across the three applications.

  • Multi-core Performance: The Core i7-1365U scored 7576 points in total, while the Ryzen 7 7730U racked up 8003 points. Thus, on average, the Ryzen 7 7730U is 5.6% faster in multi-core applications than the Core i7-1365U.
  • Single-core Performance: The two CPUs are head-to-head as the Core i7-1365U scored 1531 points while the Ryzen 7 7730U averaged 1593 points. Still, the Ryzen 7 7730U is the better CPU by 4%.

Laptop Prices

Next, let’s talk about prices.

Ryzen 7 7730UšŸ’²699šŸ’²1409
Price Difference52.09%48.62%
  • Core i7-1365U: The Core i7-1365U laptops start at $1459, while the most popular options are in the $1700 to $2300 price bracket. Furthermore, the most premium options go up to $2742.55
  • Ryzen 7 7730U: Laptops utilizing this CPU are much cheaper, with entry-level options at just $699. The majority of the options are available between $700 and $1169, though. The laptops may cost as much as $1409

Core i7-1365U Vs Ryzen 7 7730U – Which One To Choose? 

AMD Ryzen 7 7730U: We observed that the Ryzen 7 7730U performs better in multi-core and single-core applications compared to its Intel counterpart. Additionally, laptops equipped with this AMD CPU are notably more affordable. In our opinion, the Ryzen 7 7730U undoubtedly offers much better value.

Intel Core i7 1365U: The Intel i7 1365U is a lesser performer and provides mediocre results as compared to the Ryzen 7 7730U. We saw that it is also far more heftier than the Ryzen 7 7730U. The lower prices of the Ryzen 7 7730U come at a cost, though, as it lacks support for the latest I/O: PCIe 4.0 and DDR5 support. 

We recommend you go with the Ryzen 7 7730U if you don’t deem the features of PCIe 4.0 and DDR5 memory support as important as other factors. However, if you are willing to spend a significant amount of money to avail these options, you should stick with the Core i7-1365U as it is ideal under these conditions.
