    Real World Mac Mini Pro Experience, and WOW!

    I've been running on two computers for the last two years: Dec 2015 iMac loaded to the max for the time. Dell G7 maxed in late 2020 with a big Nvidia card, etc. Got my new Mac Mini Pro fully loaded with 1TB internal drive. What I've experienced is a little mind blowing for the money. Boot...

    The unsung heroes in the M2 Pro: the efficiency cores

    Hi. I've run a few tests on my new MBP 14'' with the low-end M2-Pro (10 core). I'm particularly impressed with the efficiency cores! In a compile test using clang to compile an Open Source project, I found that doing a parallel build with the 4 efficiency cores takes ~ 6 times longer than the...

    M2 MacBook Air throttling is being vastly over-exaggerated

    From the evidence I've seen, I believe firmly that people are vastly overhyping the effects of the throttling in the M2 MacBook Air. The YouTube review I've seen so far with the most thorough benchmarks is Dave2D's, and he went so far as to say that "if you're someone that wants a very powerful...

    Additional examples of 8-GPU M2 Air outperforming 10-GPU model?

    Like many prospective M2 MacBook Air buyers, I have seen GregsGadgets' game benchmark video showing the M2 Air with 8 GPU cores outperforming the 10 GPU core unit, side by side -- presumably due to more significant thermal throttling in the 10-GPU core unit due to the additional cores. Greg...

    Comparison: Internal vs. External 10GbE

    I compared the internal 10 Gbit/s network adapter of my base model Mac Studio (Max) with an external Thunderbolt 3 10 Gbit/s network adapter from Sonnet. Internal: External: The difference seems to be a more conservative power ramp up (take a look at the beginning and the end of the graph)...

    Are there any M1 versus MBP 13" Early-2015 benchmarks?

    This is purely for my own indulgence. I'm replacing the i7 3.1ghz Early-2015 13" MBP that has been amazing for all these years with a 14" M1 Pro 10/16/16 machine. It's mainly for software development and Lightroom usage. In researching there are a ton of M1 (Air and Mini) versus Intel Mac Pro...

    iPhone 12 Pro iPhone 12 Pro Antutu score

    One of my favourite mobile phone websites (GSMarena - visiting since forever) reviewed the iPhone 12 pro. They did the Antutu benchmark and it did well, however it was as strong as the max or the mini. Usually in the past when I run these tests I get a much lower score. i ran the benchmark and...

    2020 i5, 2015 i7 MBA benchmarks and comparisons using Logic Pro X

    I just bought a new MBA (i5/16GB/256). I ran some tests in Logic and Cinebench to compare it with my old Air, and thought some here might be interested in what I found. With the talk of throttling, and cooling limitations I wanted to see how it compares to the old Airs. If this new Air isn't...

    Classic Mac Pro vs Mac Mini eGPU (Gaming)?

    I'm trying to come up with a plan on if I should stick with my cMP for another year+, or if I should use this next year to hack Catalina onto it and try to off-ramp (sell and buy) onto another platform. I mostly use my Mac as a mac I can also occasionally code, transcode videos on and boot into...
