    Single core performance still worse than an iPhone.

    The x86 folks lost the ball completely. For workstation/ mobile needs you go to arm. For matmul at scale you go to gpus.

    I guess windows gaming with separate gpu is the only remaining market for them.

    Unless Nvidia releases a motherboard with an arm cpu on top of their RTX cards, and then that market is gone too.
