M1 Pro/M1 Max vs The Current Best
Benchmarking Apple’s new SoC’s with the current-best GPU/CPU
This year’s Apple Mac keynote has been eventful. Quite literally.
Apple announced a new line-up of MacBook Pro devices, powered by not one but two new SoCs in Apple’s Silicon line-up: the M1 Pro and the M1 Max. This is a first of sorts in the history of Apple.
The M1 Pro and Max both follow-up on last year’s M1, Apple’s first-generation Mac Silicon that ushered in the beginning of Apple’s journey to replace x86 based chips with their own in-house designs.
For those who are not aware of the M1 SoC, here’s a summary.
M1 is the first personal computer chip built using cutting-edge 5-nanometer process technology and packed with an astounding 16 billion transistors, the most Apple has ever put into a chip.
It featured the world’s fastest CPU core in low-power silicon, the world’s best CPU performance per watt, the world’s fastest…
