I don't disagree that there are many use cases for which more memory has diminishing returns. But I would disagree that those encompass 99.99% of use cases. Not all problems are embarrassingly-parallel. In fact, most problems aren't embarrassingly parallel. It's just that we mostly use GPUs for embarrassingly-parallel problems, because that's mostly what they're good at, and humans aren't clever enough by half to com…

Cerebras is a thing.

And at least an order of magnitude more expensive than an A100, if not two orders

5800x seems 20% faster for single core: https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/5874365 so def not on part.

This is the official score: https://browser.geekbench.com/processors/amd-ryzen-7-5800x

Yeah, that looks correct. With faster ram and PBO it should hit closer to 1800.

Here is my 5600x with PBO enabled and 3800MT/s CL16 DDR4 https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/10516280

5800x would have a max clock of 4950mhz with PBO

Apple compared the M1 Max to the 3080 in the Razer Blade 15 Advanced, saying it outperforms the Nvdia’s GPU [0], but Geekbench seems to disagree [1].

Are you really rendering in a cafe that you need on the go GPU performance?

That’s not the right way to look at it. We never did this because you couldn’t get enough performance.

Now you can get performance off a battery for your entire work day for less money than the competition (if reports are to be believed).

In this scenario, would you render things in a cafe? Why not?

Disclaimer, I don't have an M1 Mac, but I do have a buggy ubuntu desktop and used Macs my whole technical life. It seems that you're heavily in the minority with this. Even the weird bugs you mention are very unexpected. I've used a Mac for 15 years and never heard of an issue related to thumb drives. You may just have a lemon. See if you can just replace it (warranty, etc, not just spending more money).

My colleague has an M1 Mac. I have a Ubuntu desktop. My colleague always asks me to transcode videos on my machine because on her MacBook it is too slow.

I finally managed to get nvenc working on handbrake and the stupendous frame rate jump actually had me sit in stunned silence, from 3-15FPS to 120FPS on drone 1080p60 footage was jaw dropping. I know the m1 claims to be fast but I'm transcoding on a GPU that's from like 2015!

I have a three-year old hand-built 16-core ThreadRipper 1950X machine here with 64GB 4-channel RAM. I have a 14" MBP M1 Max on order. I just checked the Geekbench scores between these two machines: M1 Max: 1783 single-core | 12693 multi-core 1950X: 901 single-core | 7409 multi-core That's a big difference that I'm looking forward to. Also, just checked memory bandwidth. I have 80GB/s memory bandwidth [1] on my 1950X.…

> I have 80GB/s memory bandwidth [1] on my 1950X. The MBP has 400GB/s memory bandwidth. 5x(!) Your 1950x also doesn't have a GPU. For comparison the rx6700xt, and Vega 56 have ~400GB/s. The 6 year old R9 nano has 500GB/s.

The M1 Max *CPU* cores can access RAM at 400GB/s. My 1950x CPU cannot use the 448GB/s memory bandwidth on my RTX 2080 (which only has 8GB of GDDR6 RAM). This unified memory is wild.

Adding to all the usecases listed by other commenters. Having a higher performance per watt numbers also implies less heat from M1's perspective. This means that even if someone isn't doing CPU/GPU heavy tasks, they are still getting better battery life since power isn't being wasted on cooling by spinning up the fans. For some perspective, My current 2019, 16inch i7 MBP gets warm even if I leave it idling for 20 - 3…

Try disable turbo and search around there is an utility that keep no turbo and using hours still 50 degree.

I am not associated with that guy. In fact I bought one for even my macmini. Get my m1 macmini to avoid all these hot air.

If you run biotcamp windows has registry to disable that and also system setting to limit to 99% (but seem still hot) for my playing with Vr and fs2020 using external egpu.

The 2060 and 3090 on these compares are the desktop chips, right?

The 3090 is a high end desktop machine. There is no mobile version of the 3090 (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nvidia_graphics_proc...).

> were stuck on relatively outdated x86-64 CPUs. We came to a point when X86 is faster to emulate, than to run on a more modern microarchitecture. One point is clear: per-transistor performance of X86 is dimishing with each new core generation, and it is already losing to M1. X86 makers will not be able to keep up for long. They will have to keep releasing bigger, and hotter chips to keep parity, until they cannot.

Per transistor performance in M1 isn't any better than the x86 opposition, quite the opposite in fact. The standard M1 has 60% more transistors than a current gen Ryzen mobile chip, while having halve the large cores (and significantly worse multi ore performance).

What are you comparing? M1 is an SOC.
