There's a lot of discussion on x86 vs Arm already, but in addition to the perf-per-watt war I'm not understanding the value of the Mac Pro vs Studio featuring the same M2 Ultra setup. Where's the value in the Mac Pro unless the clock speeds were pushed higher than the Studio's version? Do...

Some sneaky marketing on Apple's part... This article points out that they're comparing the M2 Mac Mini to an older computer (2 generations back) and claiming it's 5x faster than this "bestselling PC." That's pretty devious. How does it compare to a current gen Intel CPU of a similar price...

Hi guys! I currently own a Macbook Pro M1 Pro 10 CPU 16 GPU and 16 GB RAM. I'm a filmmaker/video editor and as until a while this 16 GB ram was okay now I'm experiencing a slowdown, if I give a lot of effects it just lags and slows down my work, it just pisses me off because I don't have smooth...

Has anybody else experienced the issue that videos encoded with the M1 hardware encoder for h.264 will randomly be much larger than other times even when the videos are very similar and encoding is done with the exact same settings?

I ordered Studio Display with VESA mounting. I have an uplift desk solid wood desk 72 x 30. can you please recommend the best matching mount Arm? budget is up to $350

I have a friend who is looking for a new laptop. They find the MacBook appealing and for what it's worth, the ARM MacBooks are very good for what they are. One issue that's come up is that she likes to play League of Legends as well as streaming her gameplay on Twitch. Would she be able to...

If I am not wrong both 14 and 16 inch displays have 10.000 mini LEDs. At this point; because of 16 inch has larger area, there are less number of leds per unit of area. For example 14 inch display has more mini LEDS in x cm square compared to 16 inch display. At this point is it possible to...

First time poster and I apologize if this has been answered. With Apple moving all Mac devices to ARM architecture, does anyone understand or have a sense of what the future may hold for Intel-based Mac software? I am an architect and use a variety of software suites (Autodesk, Adobe, Trimble...

UK government intervenes in Nvidia takeover of ARM, cites 'national security' | AppleInsider

Much like Grendel in the Anglo-Saxon epic Beowulf, the much talked about but rarely seen version 9 of the Arm instruction set has been officially announced. Simon Segars, Arm's CEO, did so on the company's website: Armv9 officially announced. For a third-party analysis, take a look at Andrei...

Earlier Macs had the possibility to check the EFI firmware or even create a complete dump of it from within the OS: https://www.macrumors.com/2017/09/25/macos-high-sierra-weekly-efi-security-check/ https://eclecticlight.co/2018/06/02/how-high-sierra-checks-your-efi-firmware/ This was...

I’m looking for (ultra) small form factor Mini PCs recommendations Requirements Full System or Barebone ability to run Windows 10 Home or Pro AMD or ARM based chip (No Intel!) Silent (not louder than a Mac Mini M1) regardless if it has a fan or not. 1x M2 2280 storage slot (main or additional)...

Does anyone have a clue when we could expect a more offical arm version of Windows for the M1? It's in technical preview / insider. I wonder how long it stays in that

SAN DIEGO, Jan. 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ: QCOM) today announced that its subsidiary, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire NUVIA for approximately $1.4 billion before working capital and other adjustments. The transaction is...

As somebody who held off buying a 16" intel as soon as I heard the rumors about AS, I was all aboard the AS train. There was no way I was going to buy an intel machine when Apple was coming out with new kit. Then WWDC happened in June and they officially introed AS. It seemed impressive and the...

Apple's new m1 chips are met with universal praise. And rightly so: They completely outclass the intel chips in previous macs. But I feel like there is some misrepresentation going on here. Was this made possible by the move from x86 to ARM? Or is it about engineering innovations and good chip...

Now that we know the M1 chip is giving Apple a big advantage to the Intel/windows combo. When will Intel/windows start going the Arm route? This entry level M1 is beating some of Intel/AMD’s desktop chip. When the next iteration of the M1 chip comes out for the 16mbp, i mac and mac pro, I think...

I ordered the new Macbook Air with M1 that will be here next week. I'm looking to use it to replace my current aging Windows laptop. The only thing I foresee being an issue (hopefully this is a good place to ask this) is that I access .mil sites daily. Getting a USB-C CAC reader shouldn't be too...

For the ones who prefer Linux, any idea on how the new MacBook Air or Pro run Linux? I was looking for information specifically on ARM Fedora. Can we expect impressive performance and what about compatibility? Does it run smoothly with hardware acceleration and does it recognize all the...

I know there are tons of posts with benchmarks and tests whether a given software works, but I would like to dedicate this thread to data science apps e.g. R, RStudio, SPSS, Python (I know it will work natively), QGIS and additional software that researchers use to create illustrations as e.g...
