If Apple wanted to play in the "perf for watts" space, then they should have made sure to keep their claims within that space. Everyone is playing to the goalpost that Apple established.
- jtbayly 5y agoYeah, the arguments sounds good until you go and look at the actual chart from Apple. The 3090 can apparently draw around 380 Watts. [1] Apple shows its performance leveling off at 320W, whereas the M1 Ultra is performing better at 100W, and not leveling off. But assume for a second that the M1 Ultra suddenly flatlines right there. Fair enough, they don't want to show that. But in what world does that 3090 curve ever end up substantially out-performing the M1 Ultra with just 60 more Watts? The graph is clearly wrong. Unless you change the argument to saying that they are measuring something silly that doesn't matter in the real world.
