ℓ̊ was browsing a forum and found this argument, thought ℓ̊ should share. the second post Iƨ̣̣̣̇̇̇ the initial topic while the following post are arguments. You can also contribute your thoughts.

The first direct comparisons of the Tegra 3 found on the ASUS
Transformer Prime and the Apple A5X chip found in the new iPad
have surfaced.
And what better way to test out these robust tablets than with a
gaming comparison?
Before we get to the nitty gritty, lets look at some head-to-head
performance in one of the few OpenGL benchmarking platforms
available to both Android and iOS, GLBenchmark. It measures
different graphics and computation abilities on devices running the
OpenGL standard for mobile devices, OpenGL ES 2.x.
In terms of raw fps performance, the two tablets did not vary by
much, with the new iPad processing 6718 frames at 60fps, and the
Transformer Prime processing 5939 frames at 53fps.
The geometric and fill tests, however, was where the iPad handily
outclassed its competitor. The low-level shader geometric test saw
7.5 million frames at 57fps for the new iPad, compared to the 3.5
million at 27 fps from the Transformer. In the program’s fill test,
which measures texturing speed, the iPad was able to process almost
2 billion textels per second, as opposed to a tad over 400 million
textels from the Transformer.
The Tegra 3 gained back some of its lost ground in the Geekbench
processor and memory benchmarking tool. The Transformer Prime
dominated the new iPad with an overall score of 1571 to 692.
Finally, when taking a look at the cross-platform games available for
both devices, we can see some areas where Apple’s new tablet really
shines, and others where it needs to catch up.
When comparing Shadowgun, you can see some very crisp details
thanks to the higher resolution display found on the new iPad, as well
as the better color saturation. However, certain effects are not
present – the most prevalent being the absence of the billowing red
flags on the iPad version.

We see the same trends across other games as well – sharper detail
and richer colors on the iPad; additional eye candy and effects on the
Transformer. The latter is most likely due to the fact that developers
have had little time to work with the new A5X chipset, and could not
include all of the OpenGL effects found on the Tegra 3 version.
Ultimately, we expect the differences we saw to decrease in the
future, first with the implementation of better OpenGL effects on later
iterations of iOS games, and second, with higher quality displays on
newer tablet editions, such as the upcoming 1920 x 1200 resolution
Transformer Prime TF700T, or the Acer Iconia A700.
