AMD announces W6600, W6800 PCI-E GPU compatible with Mac Pro, eGPU
tenthousandthings said:This falls into the category of things I’ll never need, but I still find it compelling—AMD under MIT-graduate engineer Lisa Su is strong and, as I understand it, this class of RDNA-based (Radeon DNA) graphics is under her direct leadership. They are challenging Nvidia at the highest end with the (RDNA2) Radeon RX 6000 series, and Apple will benefit from the effort.
This Pro W6000 series RDNA2 variant for workstations is serious business, and the prospect of an Apple Silicon Mac Pro that can use these things (and iMacs and MacBook Pros that can use them as eGPUs) in tandem with the built-in graphics is probably not fantasy? [Marvin?] Nvidia probably isn’t quite ready to panic and start supporting Apple/Metal, but this has surely got their attention.I was very disappointed that Apple didn’t Announce that they support eGPUs (Not that MS is any better) in macOS for the M1 chip. at least on MacMini so you boost your power. -

New MacBook Pros with mini LED unlikely to launch at WWDC
Eric_WVGG said:The conspicuous absence of Micro-LED from the 11" iPad Pro is a pretty good signal that they're nowhere close to ready to deploy Micro-LED at scale, and at best it would only be an option on 16" MacBook Pros, not standard.I believe it is near-certain that ARM 16" laptops will be announced next week, Micro-LED be damned. My chequebook is ready.
I expect big announcements about IPadOS. MacOS and ipadOs will continue getting closer but the hardware lines will be distinct.
