This hasn't been true since M1's release
- Thaxll 5y agoA CPU like the 5900x is better than the m1 and cost 400$.
- yurishimo 5y agoThat's one part of the equation though, not to mention it's a desktop chip. I can get a laptop with an M1 Max with hours of battery life running full tilt. Your $400 CPU needs at least another $1000 in parts just to boot (and those aren't even the parts you likely want to pair with it). Your cost comparison is silly. Nobody compares singular CPUs to entire machines.
- Thaxll 5y agoPeople seem to think that the M1 is the ubber thing in term of performance which is not, it's great on many aspect, especially termal / perf per watt etc ... but for many it's a PC sitting bellow your desk it's less relevant. For laptop it's a different story.
