City kids have friends, play outside and go visit friends. Yes, and city kids also eat, poop, and talk. :) I think it's the degree that matters. This is simply not true. If you look at social issues like alcoholism, drug us

Geekbench shows the same gap in performance. Cinebench has historically favored Intel chips more than Arm.

I think Notebookcheck uses peak power in their perf/watt measurements. They go over it in detail here: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Our-Test-Criteria.15394.0.html

It doesn't necessarily use half the power. But it does have greater than 2x in perf/watt and it has noticeably faster ST performance.

Actually, Apple's M3 and even Qualcomm's X Elite are significantly ahead of the new Intel chip in raw performance and especially perf/watt. Cinebench R24 ST[0]: * M3: 12.7 points/watt, 141 score * X Elite: 9.3 points

The problem with the Nvidia replacement goal of big tech is that they don't have an ARM-like organization to design cores for them. Big tech use their own ARM CPUs because they use stock ARM core designs and its ISA. The hardwork was a

It's already proven that it's not just the node advantage. Just compare Apple's 7nm A series chips to Zen3 or M2 to Zen4. The power advantage for Apple is 3x - 10x.

Actually, it's way worse for Intel and AMD if you only use single core power. If you run Geekbench 5 or 6 on an M1, the total package power ranges 0.3w - 5w, mostly staying below 3w. Intel and AMD can use 10x or more power to achieve s

You're kidding right? Nvidia never went into cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrencies went into Nvidia. Nvidia actively tried to sell GPUs to gamers instead of crypto people because crypto people will flood the used GPU market when the bubble
