Unfortunately you have to read further down in the specs to see the actual hardware details. They’re on older generation hardware, so going by cores and RAM alone isn’t enough to tell you about the speed of those cores and the DDR4 RAM.

Hopefully raising money helps them iterate faster on their hardware so they’re not so far behind.
