Future Macs ARM , and The Intel answer
Is there an Intel answer to Mac Arm based laptops said to be out later this year?
Imagine a laptop that doesn't need a cooling fan, can last for 20 hours on one charge and is faster than anything we now have.
Anyone else following this?
On one side of it, ARM Mac manufactured chips have been in ipads and iphones for a long time. Looks like they are scaling things up to add Mabooks to the lineup.
The smaller Macbook would be a good candidate for the first try because it isn'
How does adding more cores affect latency and potential clock-speed?
Generally speaking:
To make effective use of significantly more cores, you're talking higher buffer sizes.
The more cores on the CPU, the harder it is to achieve high clock-speed
Super tight enclosures mean low clock-speed (thermal limitations)
Long Battery Life means low clock-speed
AMD has 32 cores on 3970x Threadripper, but the all-core clock-speed is about 4GHz.
