RISC-V is pretty good. Probably slightly better for some things than ARM, and slightly worse for others. It's open, which is awesome, and the instruction set lends itself to extensions which is nice (but possibly risks the ecosystem fragmenting). Building really high performance RISC-V designs looks like it's going to rely on slightly smarter instruction decoders than we've seen in the past for RISCs, but it doesn't look insurmountable.
