They have an amazing track record for this as well. I buy m2 processors because I know they're great. I don't even bother trying to figure out a comparison to Intel chips any more. I've done semiconductor research and used to obsess about stuff like this.

- epolanski 3y agoThe comparison only works in mobile. The M2 vs mobile Intel/AMD is indeed favorable for the M2 because it uses much less power. But in general, it's much more nuanced. I have both a desktop with a Ryzen 7700x and a mac book pro m2, my coworker has a 13900k and a m2 max, the performances aren't really always comparable. There's many tasks where you are looking at a much less capable machine. Compiling and IDE performances are still way better in general on x86 linux than a notebook macos. You may not care about that 0.5second more lag every time you save and EsLint reprocesses your entire file, and the watcher restarts some application after and you're looking at 5/6 seconds instead of a couple. I do. There's no doubt that Apple produced a great CPU, but when you get into considering costs and performance there's still a huge lag. There's no doubt that the crown on laptops is in Apple hands right now. That's not every use case out there.
