Is there an ETA for 5nm AMD SoCs?
- pengaru 6y agoNot AFAIK, but it's not like 7nm AMD SoCs are intolerable dogs. Most M1 vs. PC comparisons are being made against Intel's ancient process, for obvious Apple-favoring reasons.
- judge2020 6y agoIt’s mostly compared to Intel since there’s no official AMD support on MacOS whatsoever. You very well could compare hackintosh AMD to Apple’s M1, but it wouldn’t be comparing Apples to Apples. There are indeed AMD Windows comparisons, however[0]. 0: https://youtu.be/4MkrEMjPk24?t=10m39s https://youtu.be/4MkrEMjPk24?t=10m39s
