How does it compare to WHICH Ryzen laptop? It’s a meaningless question without that. There’s so many options. Each with their own manufacturer characteristics.

Comparing an M1 to an Intel Mac is easier because there were so few SKUs of each. Comparing against a sea of alternatives requires more precision.
- smoldesu 4y agoAny of them? I'm talking about CPU performance, since we've already hashed over hardware. Plus, this wasn't really a question directed at you; I'm generally curious if the parent has tried a Ryzen laptop in the past half-decade.
- andrewaylett 4y agoI should have been clearer that I was only talking to your comment that the Mac would "raise the ambient temperature", sorry -- I've not tried a Ryzen, my personal Linux laptop is a Haswell and is fine but won't win any awards for battery, speed, screen, or fan volume. It's really good at cooling though, the only laptop I've seen that makes one's knees cooler as CPU usage increases. My previous work laptop was an Intel Mac space heater. Nice in winter, not so much in summer. Don't try putting it on your lap. My current work laptop is an M1, and is the one for which I have yet to hear the fan
