Intel doesn’t think that Arm CPUs will make a dent in the laptop market::"They've been relegated to pretty insignificant roles in the PC business."

Of course intel would be the last company to admit x86 is dying. It just doesn't make sense to keep doubling down on it anymore, Apple has proven ARM is more power efficient and in many cases more powerful than x86. I wanted to buy a new laptop this year but it makes no sense to do so considering Windows ARM machines are right around the corner and will triple battery life and increase performance.

What arm chips are faster than ryzen or Intel chips?

M2 Max chips are close to the high end i9, but the M series cpus are mobile chips. They're designed for laptops. If competition is a bit harder then no doubt desktop-focused ARM CPUs will match their performance soon.

AFAIK they're large chips though, and larger generally is more performance but also much more expensive to manufacture.
