They're pretty easy to verify. Find the average difference in performance at a given TDP and substract the efficiency improvement, this breaks down in single-core somewhat but not in multi-core. There is very little speed differential between desktop and mobile single-core performance nowadays. The M1 Max is nowhere even close to the best desktop systems which would be the 3990X or the upcoming 5990WX. Despite having much faster RAM - which is the biggest reason why it can perform so well in FP workloads - in integer workloads it cannot compete. I'm citing Anandtech on their data, not on their opinion. I'll give them credit for investing a lot in 5nm.
