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.
If you compare like for like, ie. take the process node out of the picture, then you need to compare the Ryzen 9000 series to the A16, as both use TSMC's 4NP process.
There is nothing like for like. We're comparing a fanless phone chip to machines that might have water cooling and nearly unlimited power.
