Someone should start doing this
Let’s see real world usage comparison tests, then we’ll talk.
Yeah so the last couple generations of their cores were supposed to be Super Awesome™, but in real world usage ended up being absolute dogs - not to mention, the lack of a system analogous to Apple’s Rosetta 2 (say what you will about Apple, but that one translation layer was an absolute godsend in terms of ironing out the vast majority of CPU architecture-related hiccups arising from the x86 -> ARM transition) kinda largely hamstrung adoption.
Let’s wait and see how this actually performs.
How much this translates into gaming is very much another question.
A good way to find out would be Microsoft releasing their own games for Windows ARM. AFAIK only Solitaire Collection is ported to ARM.
