Here’s a speed comparison between Qualcomm and AMD’s best cpus from last year. Same TDP.
Amd’s chip runs on 28 watts and is built on 4nm, qc’s runs on 7 watts and is built on 5nm. They are not equivalent.
AMD’s x86 CPUs are actually faster and more efficient than Apple’s ARM CPUs on the same 5nm process node, but Apple is consistently 2 years ahead when it comes to silicon manufacturing, because of their TSMC deals.
Comparing amd 7840u pro (4 nm, 28W) with apple m2 pro 10 core (5 nm, 28W), amd is 7% faster in single core and 10% faster in multi core. It’s unclear how it would be if they were on the same node. Feels they’d be the same
I think the QC chip is 28 watts too. They use the same chassis as the Intel chip.
That is a good point that AMD’s node is technically slightly newer, even though they are both 5nm class. TSMC’s N4P is claimed to be up to 5% faster or 10% more power efficient than N5P. So, fair enough, they’re about even.
