I'm not aware of any ARM cores that can rival the single-thread performance of Intel's Kaby Lake, but there are plenty of ARM-based NAS systems, showing they're more than capable of handling I/O-oriented workloads. Furthermore, the relative power-efficiency of ARM cores is helping them find their way into the cloud.
What I'd wanted to do was build an ARM-based, fanless micro-server. For that, I wanted gigabit Ethernet and a SATA-3 port (or M.2 NVMe slot). Here's what I ended up using:
ASRock Super AlloyIntel Quad-Core Pentium Processor J4205 (up to 2.6 GHz)Supports DDR3/DDR3L 1866 SO-DIMM1 PCIe 2.0 x1, 1 M.2 (Key E)Graphics Output Options: D-Sub, HDMI, DVI-D7.1 CH HD Audio (Realtek ALC892 Audio Codec), ELNA Audio Caps4 SATA34 USB 3.1 Gen1 (2 Front, 2 Rear)Supports Full Spike Protection, ASRock Live Update & APP Shop
I'd have preferred it to be mini-STX (or at least "thin mini-ITX"), but I managed to find a small case and efficient external PSU:

For those not wanting to build your own, you can find Apollo Lake SoCs used in low-end Intel NUCs and some micro PCs (not to mention many Chromebooks):
