Apple's new chip "shreds" a 2016-era GPU?
Wow.
- Tagbert 6y agoApple’s new integrated graphics chip shreds a discrete GPU. The models announced last week were all the low end models that currently only have integrated Intel graphics. This is a huge upgrade for those systems. The expectation is that when Apple announces replacements for their higher end products, some of which use discrete GPUs, there will be a similar upgrade in performance.
- GeekyBear 6y agoIt's not impressive until you consider the difference in power draw between the discrete laptop GPU version of the chip and the entire M1 SOC. >The power consumption of the GeForce GTX 1050 is roughly on par with the old GTX 960M, which would mean around 40-50 Watts https://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-1050-Notebook.178614.0.html https://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-1050-Notebo...
