If you’re going to compare the highest end New MacBook Pro with 32 core GPU and 10 Core M1Max and 16 core Neural Engine, then compare it to the Mac Pro with Duo W6900X with Afterburner at 28 cores and 384GB DDR4 memory, at least. Show people why A…

Honestly, who in the hell is asking for this R&D Project? I mean seriously, if you can't get a decent gaming experience for AAA games, who in their right effing mind would spend $3k+ on an effing head set for AR based games? Meanwhile, EPYC 3 a…

tipoo said: Just to add something, GPU core counts are all counted differently and meaningless across architectures. An Apple GPU core is 128 ALUs, say an Intel one is 8. Seeing what they did with the 8C M1, the prospect of a 128 core Appl…

Apple is not TSMC's sole 5nm client. The other is AMD whose entire CPU / GPU line goes 5nm Fall 2021. Samples early Spring 2021. This 4nm/3nm stuff is a few years away folks.
