Why don't you buy an EPYC/Threadripper workstation then? Even best M2 laptops still can't compete with hackintosh on dated 3970x

- gghffguhvc 3y agoI also have a maxed out Mac Studio when I need the extra cores and don’t need the portability. But I haven’t looked into hackintosh options for a long time. Perhaps I’ll check it out again some time. Thanks for the tip.
- kiratp 3y agoBecause it’s not faster. Well at least the 3990x wasn’t. Compilation rapidly drops from parallel to single thread bound for most workloads. https://twitter.com/kiratpandya/status/1457438725680480257 https://twitter.com/kiratpandya/status/1457438725680480257
- pshirshov 3y agoDepends on your workload. For me 3970x is faster in all my workflows.
- ido 3y agoI think you severely underestimate how fast the M2 series is.
- pshirshov 3y agoI compared. They are better on bang per watt but I'm still getting significantly shorter compilation times on 3970x.
