> Also note that the real win of the Apple M1 is lower power consumption. Doesn’t this automatically translate into higher performance — by adding more cores or increasing clock rate — since TDP is the limiting factor for CPU speed? I mean, if someone created a 1W CPU that performed as well as a 100W CPU, would you say “lovely, a lower power CPU” or “overclock/add cores until it reaches 100W and give me that”?
