No, the C64 uses a 1MHz 6510 vs. a 2MHz 6502 in the BBC. Try comparing "Elite".
The graphics performance of the C64 is solely down to the VIC-II chip and nothing else. Where are the 80 column modes? Where are the high resolution graphics? BBC can do 640x256
The C64 is a games console disguised as a computer where you load the games from tape. The sad 1541 floppy drive is about 1/10 of the speed of a typical BBC floppy drive.
Why don't you look up the spec of the BBC vs. C64 on Wikipedia?
Usborne's The Beginners' Computer Handbook from 1983 said the processors were the same anyway, but if they weren't then I won't argue.
The VIC chip could produce vastly superior graphics and effects but was less able than the BBC to tackle high-resolution text modes and wasn't as easily programmable in BASIC.
80 column mode was possible with the C64, though admittedly it was the software which utilised it.
The Commie was more than a games console. Where was your BBC's inbuilt 64K RAM? Where was its SID chip, RAM and processor upgrades, network cards, sound sampler, FM synth plug-in, image scanner, MSSIAH cartridge or Action Replay?
The C64 has had its own disk fastloaders since the early days to bring drive speeds faster than the Beeb ones.
The C64 still thrives because it is so handy, particularly in recording studios.

The 64's processing capability was identical to the BBC, using the same processor, but see the deficiency of the BBC in comparison.

But I'm not putting the BBC down. It was a solid, reliable and dependable machine which was able to perform the tasks required of it.
It was certainly no shame to have one and I have many happy memories of using one at school and learning my first programming language on one.
Now why the hell did I just remember that... lol. First game I played on BBC Micro :-)
