You're not going to get a lot of gaming done on ARM cores, when the games Stadia is trying to sell are built for x86 and x64.

Games that run on ARM devices (Fortnight, Minecraft) can already run on Stadia's end user hardware (phones, low-end computers, even many android-based smart TVs), and don't require streaming infrastructure.

Why not? Think Nintendo Switch (which uses an ARM-based Tegra X1), not PS5. And give the hardware 3-5 years; it will be able to do 4k. It'll be just another port.
