Sorry if this sounds stupid, but I've always wondered: is 1 point in Geekbench for ARM really equivalent to 1 point for x64? Are they really comparable in the first place? If yes, how is it that the ARM SOC can beat an i5 while consuming so much less power? And why is ARM outstripping x64 in terms of single core speed? It just doesn't add up.
