Reminder: Haswell and Zen1 were around 8.1 specint2006/GHz.

These CPUs are above that.

So is P550 ... 8.65 is the claim I think. It doesn't have the MHz though. My i7-4790K (which is still in the back room somewhere) had a base of 4.0 GHz and could turbo to 4.2 or 4.4. My Megrez is doing just 1.8 GHz.

Reminder: The Cortex-A76 cores in the Pi5 are 9.9 SPECint2006/GHz, only the UR-CP1000 is above that, but that doesn't support RVV.

The SpacemiT X100 is slightly below that, but has 256-bit RVV and RVA23 support.
