Is it, though? Its single-core score is roughly 2x that of the top CPU Apple put in the mid-2012 macbook pro. 2x after 10 years doesn't seem that great to me.
Maybe that's more of an indictment against intel

- RussianCow 5y agoThe single-core performance of Intel CPUs has only increased by about 10% per generation, so that checks out.
