How it compares to NVIDIA Tegra X1?

My guess is that they will probably trade blows, A9X will most likely be faster in T-Rex and Manhattan, and Tegra X1 in 3DMark.

So for gaming performance on real games, X1 is better then A9x ?

Well, both GFX Bench and 3DMark are synthetic benchmarks, so not sure which one will be better in real games - it's like with nVidia and AMD in PC market, for about equaly performing cards, some games run better on one and others on the other, depending on what subsystems are more taxed.

I think it will be about equal, Apple seems to usually lags some 6 months after nVidia to have same or slightly better performance in their SoCs, but nVidia will probably have something new around feb-mar '16.
