The single-threaded results of the Apple cores are excellent, but the multi-threaded results per socket of a Zen 6 absolutely wipe out any Apple CPU.

The Apple CPUs may be great for a personal computer, but they are not competitive with a server CPU.

Moreover, the SPEC floating-point results are not really representative for the floating-point performance of Zen 5 and Zen 6 that can be reached with optimized AVX-512 programs, which is much greater.
