How is it even possible that smartphones can drive effortlessly very high DPI 2K displays with tiny GPU ASICs on small low energy ARM chips without cooler or fan, while on desktops and laptops require massive GPU with tremendous cooling (sure yo "can" drive 2K display with just i5 but you can't do anything else with it)?
Just exactly how badly PC's hardware architecture is really designed?

what the fuck are you talking about?
An intel i3 with integrated gpu is more then enough to power a full hd display and use basic software.
My ancient netbook, which cpu is far worse then any smartphones, is able to run a full hd display with browser etc.

amd designed 64 bit ISA
ARM built their 64 bit from the ground up in 2011.
why do you think it runs better?
Upscaling
The billions Apple and Samsung put into R&D compared to others so they can keep people upgrading.
Seriously the amount of power phones put out for their size and everything else they include is fucking incredible.
