Introduction

A while ago, Apple finally announced their incredible and updated new MacBook Pros, but more importantly, they announced their new lines of M-series chips, the new M1 Pro and Max, that are going to power those laptops, and on paper, they looked simply incredible and are some of the most powerful chips ever manufactured by Apple.

Now, with this much power, a very important question comes to the minds of all of us curious users who wish to make a few extra bucks on the side, and that is whether or not you can actually use these powerful new beasts to mine a few coins, and if so, how much can you actually end up making?

So, Apple’s chips have been a good upgrade and they seem to be a couple of really powerful chips.

The M1 Pro chip specifically comes with 10 CPU cores, but these are not the ones that we are focusing on today, but instead, we are taking a deeper look at its GPU which goes up to 16 cores, and this is a big upgrade.
