Microarchitecture analysts have examined NVIDIA's GB10 'Superchip' and determined that its CPU cores are capable of going toe-to-toe with Intel and AMD.
This is more about the Arm X925 core than about Nvidia. The X925 is a new superscalar ARM core that’s the first one competitive with current x64 at single threaded compute.
They get fairly close from what I understand. But while they are more power efficient, they’re still behind in pure speed. The X925 goes for speed at the cost of power, at least per this:

Apple M-series are ARM64. Are they not competitive?
