Also of note is that half of the Mac Studio's case is dedicated to cooling. Up to this point, all M1 Max benchmarks are within laptops while all Threadripper benchmarks are in desktops. The M1 Max in the Mac Studio will probably perform better than expected.
- tacLog 5y agoThis is sound logic and probably be the case but I wonder if this effect will be less than what we have seen in the past because of the reduced TDP of the M1 processors in general. Maybe the cooling and power delivery difference between laptop formfactors and PC formfactors will be less with these new arm based chips.
- ip26 5y agoMaybe; every chip hits a point where feeding in more power doesn’t make it go any faster. If I was to guess, the increased cooling probably helps the Studio sustain similar boost clocks as the laptops, but for longer. Although it’s possible these are on N4x, which might increase the attainable boost.
