Hey all,
So I was looking at Anand's review of the ARM-based Chromebook and saw that is absolutely decimated the Atom N570. However, I noted a couple of things:
- The Atom N570 gets ~1034ms in SunSpider on the Chromebook, but the Atom Z2760 in the Intel based tablet that Anand tested against the Surface got ~714ms. What could explain this discrepancy if the cores really are similar? (and both were running the Chrome browser)
- Power consumption for the A15 was quite high compared to what is typically needed in a tablet/smartphone; does this mean that tablet uses of the A15 will need to really kill the clock speeds and/or performance?
