AMD and Intel both have processors that perform much better than anything ARM-based except Apple's M1 processors (which of course nobody else has access to). That might change once Qualcomm release the new design they are supposedly working on, but that's not available yet.

I was thinking recent CPUs in the Exynos line were supposed to be pretty good. I never realized Apple was that far ahead...

I think Apple's chips aren't that far off being twice as fast as Exynos chips in single-core performance. Whereas the latest AMD and Intel chips are more or less on a par.

The 990 is pretty old. I think the latest is the 2200.

The A14 is a generation old at this point. This is a more relevant comparison:
