Will ARM ever replace Intel/AMD as the desktop processor of choice?
TFW It's $((${CURRENT_YEAR} + 3)) And x86 Still Dominates Desktop Processors

x86 has been dead for a looong time user
it's all AMD64 now

2021 is the year of the RISC sceenshot this
Daniel Williams
AMD64 is x86-64. I stand by my post. But +1 for being technically correct.
Chase Sullivan
Why 2021?

If Intel keeps fucking up? Maybe.

ARM is good to switch something while stay on low power. Like when you make a call on phone.
You need Windows with games, so you need Nvidia and AMD to make ARM video card drivers first. Since there ARM windows already.

Arm's already won bro blog.cloudflare.com
Falcore is a 46 core ARM processor

Have you ever looked at aarch64?
Couldn't get more CISC than that.

All modern x86 CPUs are RISC
ARM is fucking terrible just like x86

>ARM cores are comparable to x86 cores
This is the part where you faggots seem to keep losing focus. Your average ARM core is a complete piece of shit compared to a modern intel/amd core. Sure, you got some stuff in the pipeline that might compete in certain controlled tests, but if you are running a business and need hardware that can run a SAP system coded by an army of pajeets, you pick the x86 without even thinking about ARM. Yes, if your primary workload is converting DNS requests to ip addresses, you can probably get away with a fucking toaster. This is not applicable to 99% of the rest of the world.

He is not. AMD64 is an extension of x86, therefore still x86.

(math $CURRENT_YEAR+3)
FTFY. Isn't it nicer user?

corelet, try 64 cores like my boy rome.

ARM sure is fucking amazing.

It's 20 broadwell and 24 skylake cores (with hyperthreading) in dual socket servers vs a single 46 core ARM chip (with a lower TDP)
Robert Parker
It's also ARM code being compiled to x86, really showing that even ARM code runs better on x86, check per core results and weep.

Why would it if it's constantly being developed for power efficiency with mobile in mind? There's virtually zero reasons to move to ARM on desktop because in {CURRENT_YEAR} existing ARM solutions are still inferior in high performance segment.
And it will never get there because as PPC architecture has shown, the market doesn't like segmentation into completely incompatible solutions.
Mason Sanders
Nope, look at the patent and licence, it's classified as a new ISA, since it is.
It takes x86 and adds a bunch of shit into it, changing the name to AMD64.
Remember that it's NOT actually 100% backwards compatible with x86 in terms of instructions alone.
Leo Williams
ARM will kill x86 for laptops, screencap this.
Grayson Martinez
Obviously single threaded performance on ARM is nothing compared to x86, but for applications that scale linearly with cores ARM will play
