  • Leaked plan shows Intel will try to be more efficient than M1 Max by late 2023

    Nowhere does the leaked slide say Intel is targeting m1 max.  Alder lake already beats m1 max at many tasks. With arrow lake-p, Intel is targeting whatever chip apple will have in-market in late 2023/early 2024. 

    What’s not mentioned in the slide is arrow lake-H. Intel’s p-series are it’s low power series. Intel’s h series are it’s high end mobile chips that offer desktop class performance. 

    If an intel low power p-series chip beats apple m2 max or m3 max, then the h series will have even more performance still. At a higher wattage of course.  

    My take: Arrow lake-p seems to be designed to match a similar performance per watt as apple’s m series chips. Arrow lake-h seems to be designed to leave apple in the dust. But only time will tell. The benefactor of this competition will be us, the consumer. 

    Intel has already claimed to be producing processors that exceed the performance of Apple's M1 Max. However, the difference is within a margin of error while at the same time, Intel's processors require dramatically more power.


    Now the company is reportedly aiming at a new processor that will beat Apple's 2021 chips by early 2024 at the latest.


    What are you talking about?

    The introduction of the article states: “ A presentation slide claiming to show Intel's projected future roadmap includes plan for Arrow Lake processor to outperform Apple's M1 Max by late 2023 or early 2024.” 

    However the leaked intel slide states: ARL-P is targeting Apple 14 premium inch designs. Nowhere does the intel slide claim that intel is targeting the 2021 m1 max with a 2023/24 product. 

    The implication of the article is that intel is only hoping to catch up to apple’s m1 max in 2023… but this is a spurious claim as alder lake already beats m1 max at many tasks (albeit at a higher power consumption). Therefore, the article is wrong. 

    Arrow lake follows meteor lake, and it will destroy alder lake, and thus m1 max. Intel is clearly targeting arrow lake towards whatever m-series chip apple will have on the market in 2023-24.

  • Intel under fire: What Wall Street thinks about Apple's new MacBook Pro

    Not sure how the summaries listed correlate to the opinion that Intel is “under fire.”  

    Also, Intel is ramping Alder Lake-S which probably will exceed M1 Max performance (albeit while consuming much more power). Also alder lake will have up to 8 golden cove performance cores and 8 gracemont efficiency cores. Raptor Lake is rumored to launch in 2022 and double the efficiency cores to 16, for a total of 8 + 16 = 24 cores and 32 threads.   Intel is still selling a metric ton of processors to the ecosystem. 80 percent market share. Microsoft just announced that it updated the windows 11 kernel thread scheduler to schedule threads in a manner that takes advantage of the hybrid design. Intel might be coming back. 

    Intel and AMD will be in trouble if and when ecosystem partners like Asus, Dell, Lenovo, Razer, Microsoft etc. introduce non-x86 designs. 

    I don’t see x86 being in trouble until two things happen. 
    First, An ARM vendor emerges that sells an ARM processor to the mass market with performance characteristics on par with Apple silicon or the upcoming x86 designs (or the ecosystem partners develop their own in house designs).  Qualcomm can’t compete with Alder Lake or Zen 4. And as good as Apple silicon is, it can’t run windows natively… and not only that, Dell, Lenovo, Asus can’t put an Apple silicon processor inside of their laptops because Apple doesn’t sell to other people. So for the billions of users out there who don’t use macOS, Apple silicon is not relevant to them.  Now if Apple got into the processor supplier game (it won’t) then that would spell serious trouble for AMD and Intel. 

    Second, windows on arm needs to be licensed for broader non-OEM use, and it also has to seamlessly run the applications that people want to use like games, office suite software, content creation software, and so on. 

    Until those two things happen, Intel and AMD will be fine. But Apple’s innovations could spur other laptop manufacturers to follow suit and ultimately press Microsoft for a windows on arm solution. Intel and AMD need to tread carefully, and continue to ramp x86 core design production on smaller nodes. ASAP.

  • Apple patched an iOS lock screen bypass without crediting its discovery

    I mean these kinds of bugs are embarrassing. Not surprising that Apple or any other company doesn’t want to draw attention to them.

    Also, if this one wasn’t reported thorough the proper channels, why would anyone expect to be given credit anyways?
