But the M1 is already a huge hit in the music and design community, which is pro-performance oriented. If subsequent Mnx chips provide enough of a speed bump they're going to destroy the high end Xeon market.
- kingosticks 6y agoYou've named two industries where Apple have histrionically been really popular, mostly because of their software rather than for any particular performance reason. They'd all buy the latest, Apple product whatever was inside because that's the only one Apple is going to support going forward. The idea of real high-performance computing moving to ARM is entirely dependent on there being suitable good software support, which currently does not exist (at least in my industry there is nothing yet and the vendors move very slowly). This "destruction" might eventually come but it won't be any time soon and Intel will of course react in the meantime.
