Does that include the new Mac Pro? If so does that mean PC games would theoretically run faster on an iPhone 11 than on desktop PCs (ignoring GPU speeds)?

- toast0 7y agoMost modern games are able to use four or more fast cpu cores, and even a budget desktop can afford a quad core cpu for less than $100 these days: intel i3-9100F (no graphics, coffee lake), or amd ryzen 5 3200g (graphics, zen+) are likely much better for multithreaded experiences. Plus heat dissipation, optionally more ram, and i/o abilities. If you're willing to spend $200 on a cpu, you can get faster or more cores.
- kyriakos 7y agoplaying games means sustaining stable high performance for long periods. gaming PCs have active cooling which helps. i doubt a phone can do that without hitting thermal issues.

- Wowfunhappy 7y agoThe Mac Pro is actually a poor comparison here. Mac Pros run Xeon processors that prioritize having many cores. Their single core performance is very good, but worse than Intel's top mainstream chips, like the 9900K.
