the machine is less than 4 years old!
anyway, the point was about the obsolesence or other of the ISA. It was about the claim that various versions of apple silicon are no good for performance, only for perf-per-watt or some related variance.

- PaulDavisThe1st 2y agoOh, I suspect they target exactly the same segments. The expectations of those segments have moved, however.
- jeffbee 2y agoI agree with your second point, but misstating the age of a 6-year-old CPU as 4 years old will tend to throw off the equations, considering how fast this field moves. I would also note that the Zen/Zen+ CPUs were truly awful. Ryzen and EPYC did not have a good implementation until Zen 2.
