Here is the issue. Apple is two years ahead. They've been two years ahead for a while, and they will be two years ahead going forward a few years or forever.

- tyleo 1y agoI get your point but Strix Halo isn’t Intel. Maybe another company can close the gap but it still doesn’t bode well for Intel.
- bigbadfeline 1y ago> I get your point but Strix Halo isn’t Intel. But of course, Apple isn't Apple, nor is AMD AMD - they're both Taiwan's TSMC.
- tyleo 1y agoIt isn’t clear that TSMC is all the special sauce here. The Apple chips are uniquely good in my experience so far. Maybe another chip has similar power/performance but: 1. I haven’t seen real-world examples showing that 2. It might not run the desktop workloads I care about Maybe some other TSMC-based device is out there that suits my needs but if it is, it at least has piss poor advertising.
- bigbadfeline 1y agoQualcomm and Apple are neck to neck, inching ahead of each other with each new design - both use TSMC for production.
- tyleo 1y agoInteresting, can you tell me more? Do you have any links to real world examples or tests?
- xrd 1y agoCan you elaborate on this? I'm curious to hear more details about this. For example, does a Asus ROG laptop match M chips from Apple? For example, I see Asus ROG g16 indicates a 13th gen Intel chip. Am I wrong to assume these are the same thing and don't suffer the same problems? Any links I should review?
- dontlaugh 1y agoThat matches performances, but sadly not efficiency.
