    Modern ARM processors are nuts. My three year old phone has a GPU, in raw tflop numbers at least (I know) more powerful than an Xbox One. 1.4 tflops

    The overclocked Adreno 740 in the Samsung Galaxy S23 has the equivalent tflops to an Xbox Series S(3.8 I think).

    This isn’t even mentioning Apple’s ARM laptop chips. M1 macs and that.

    And I haven’t even mentioned CPUs.

    Obviously comparing tflops across different architectures is more of a fun exercise than a meaningful comparison, but it’s still very interesting to see.

      haha it’s cool to know these exponential leaps are being wasted what is, in terms of general use, an MP3 player glued to a flip-phone

      ARM is the future for sure, the west will be seething. Nintendo is using an UNDERCLOCKED Nvidia tablet from 2014 as their main console and getting amazing results from it. As more developers move towards ARM platforms because of the apple jump, we’re gonna start seeing X86 fall.
