x925 does according to GeekerWan. C1 Ultra is even faster. x86 GB6 results are from the Geekbench website. I searched for the fastest overall scores I could find in the first few pages of GB6 results to steelman as best as possible.

The long and the short is that x86 is WAY behind in every way. The chips are larger, hotter, and slower too. If the rumored A19 Pro in a $500 laptop happens, it's going to absolutely crush the wintel market.

The stuff about Graviton is missing a key element too. Look at the X3 scores below. They are around 30% slower than the x86 competitors. This is what Graviton 4 is using (Neoverse V2 is based on X3). Neoverse V3 was announced almost 2 years ago now and is based on X4 which is a pretty big jump. I'd expect Neoverse V4 in Feb 2026 to be based on either X925 or C1 Ultra. When these newer, faster cores hit the market, they will be beating x86 in cost (the cores are smaller) and power consumption if not peak performance too.
