My bad, I should have said personal computing
*Routers*
Switches
Smart household devices
in personal computing the only other arch with limited success was powerpc (IBM)
All that experimental shit had arm long before smartphones
actually late dumb phones prob had arm
``` It was the first GSM phone to use an ARM processor.[1]```
1997
Allright, personal computing then. wasn't point of the discussion @bentech
point is all the "powerful" electronics seem to use x86... So when is ARM better?
I'm confused
10-18 days
damn nice
priority line was free
also the least likely shipping method to get chinked for taxes iirc
@Deleted User one or the other isn't strictly better, it's just due to everyone wanting to run legacy server, pc etc stuff
which needs x86

lmao
get it
<:woah:333623269674713098>
cop that now
@bentech yeah but in that case why do ARM tablets still compete? I mean unless it's cases where companies want to use their own ARM processors. They're priced about the same as intel atom ones on banggood for example...
I CANT WATCH HD NETFLIX ON MY POCOPHONE WHAT AM I GONNA DO
OH NO
better battery life
built in modem (qualcomm dominate in modems)
>better battery life isn't that dependent purely on TDP? @bentech
no
tdp is meaningless
bassically think frequency ramp up speed etc
how much power it uses while sleeping
etc
So ARM is more efficient? @bentech
then why was it abandoned in PCs?
