Qualcomm has long been the only company offering Arm-based chips for Windows PCs, but AMD and NVIDIA are reportedly waiting in the wings.

x86 could always compete in raw performance, but never in efficiency. If we were to compare two hypothetical cpus on the same node size, one arm and one x86, that can both run a program at the same speed; I guarantee you the arm one will use less power.

We can argue the pros and cons of x86 vs arm all day long but suggesting that the choice isn’t impactful is just wrong.

oh x86 has nothing to do with that, there have been terrible power efficiency arm cpus and efficient x86 cpus too.

but it’s nice to see the goalpost change suddenly ;) at least we agree that x86 and arm are effectively the same performance and demonstrable evidence

The goalpost never moved, you just didn’t understand what we were talking about :)

Why are you so confident about a subject you clearly know nothing about?

You can keep saying that if you like, if it makes you feel better. It’s clear we can’t have a conversation if this is your starting point.

It’s clear we can’t have a conversation if you think theres no difference between x86 and arm lol
