M1x benchmarks leaked recently, and it's on the same TSMC 5nm process node with double the big CPU cores and double the GPU cores and double the RAM.

Quite a healthy bump.
Next year, we should see an M2 on TSMC 3nm with it's ~40% die shrink and either a ~25% power reduction or ~15% performance increase.
I would personally expect them to take the power/heat cut like they did at 5nm and bump up the core count once again.
- qeternity 6y agoI think what’s so impressive about M1 though is the increase in (at least perceived) single threaded performance. We know core counts scale and that’s been the industry focus for some time. So yeah I am not expecting a huge perceived speed up from M1x/M2...but hey M1 feels nearly instantaneous I’m not really sure how big a difference a faster cpu would actually have.
- GeekyBear 6y agoApple's been seeing a yearly 20% performance boost on it's big CPU cores for many years now. https://www.anandtech.com/show/16226/apple-silicon-m1-a14-deep-dive/4 https://www.anandtech.com/show/16226/apple-silicon-m1-a14-de... So while the M1x is using the same CPU and GPU cores as the M1, the M2 will get an additional performance boost from having a newer generation of core designs.

- GeekyBear 6y agoOne of the fairly accurate Apple leakers, Jon Prosser, has said that one of his known good sources has confirmed the scores are legit.
