Here's Transformer Pad Infinity with DDR3-1600 (6.4GB/s)

I think even if you account for everything else, 543MP4 is just much, much faster than Tegra 3.

Again, you posted offscreen rendering that favors PowerVR. Also the Infinity only came with 1GB of Ram, not 2GB.



This paints a very different picture... And harkens back to several posts back that it would be hard to tell them a part.
Also note the Tegra 3 running at a higher resolution than the top two iPads. (Which are always performant due to Apples Metal API and OS optimizations, the lower resolution just helps.)

As Conina already said, offscreeen tests are what is really measured, since onscreen measurements, beside being locked to refresh rate, are in different resolutions - that's why actual VS benchmarks are always done offscreen in the same resolution, and this is where SoC can be pushed to limits under same conditions.
