According to Kurnal, Dimensity 9400 uses HP libraries for the Cortex X925 prime core.
Stock ARM cores still have a notable clock speed gap with custom ARM cores. Presumably due to some microarchitectural limitation?
PS: There's also a rumour that Google Tensor G7 will use their own custom cores, which has 16 MB shared L2 and a clock speed of 5 GHz.
Rather strange isn't it, that all these custom cores from Apple, Qualcomm and Google have many similarities: big shared L2, high clock speed, etc...
