seems a bit meh on the cpu side. It is competitive but doesnt stand out.

that is a large downgrade from the tegra k1's quad a15 cores. I guess cpu design is hard, just ask amd 😛

aside the a8x is a beast.
 
Also Androids 3Dmark is 32bit still I believe so not leveraging everything Denver has to offer.

Bullet Physics in this so yea, it will love cores.
 
Denver's CPU performance is very good when it can take good advantage of the dynamic code optimization process. It performs better than enhanced Cyclone and R3 Cortex A15 in Geekbench 3 single-threaded score, Kraken, and likely Octane too (according to someone who has tested the retail version at XDA developers forum). Sunspider is an anomaly of course, but some reviewers did note in previews that web pages subjectively load just as fast on Nexus 9 as they do on iPad Air 2.

Note that the 3dmark Physics test takes good advantage of all four cores in the quad-core Cortex CPU, so the dual-core Denver CPU would obviously be at a disadvantage in comparison, but even so it did outscore the tri-core enhanced Cyclone CPU in that test.

Anyway, this is already being discussed here: http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2406753

check the start time...although it doesnt matter.
