Yup I just looked at the clang score in geekbench, for single threaded 9800x3d scored about 3200, whilst m4 had 4400... The m4 is so far above the rest it's ridiculous. Wish Apple made an x86 equivalent so that it can play Windows games lol.

Just supporting Linux would be adequate imho. Non-existent Linux support straight up makes M4 a non-starter for myself as much as I can admire the hardware.

For developers yes, but gamers seem to have the loudest voice in the desktop PC performance conversation, so I think it's important to cater to that market.

  Gamers in general are not looking at Apple's chips.

Except the fact that your computer runs more than one thread. Pity that this "single core" performance cannot be utilized at its maximum potential.
