![]() ![]() Yes, that i7 has only 4 cores, but the additional cores/threads on a mac add no bonus towards using Reason, so to match the single core speed of the Thinkpad, you'll actually need the latest MacBook pro. All parts are cheap to replace and you only need a screwdriver. It's also super quiet and has a special drainage hole beneath the keyboard, so you can spill all you want. I might upgrade the RAM to 64 gigs from the current 32, though, but so far there has been no need. No bloatware, no annoying apple marketing, BEST keyboard I've ever used on a laptop. i7-7820HQ (overclockable!), has a thunderbolt port, 2x SSD.2 of 1 Tb each + 1 HDD with 2 Tb. I realized I won't be upgrading from R11 suite in the coming 2 years or so, so I bought a fully loaded older ThinkPad P51 in mint condition on the used market, with a 4k matte display with pantone color calibration sensor and Nvidia quadro m2200 video card for a grand total of $940 including delivery. Would be nice if they could throw in something specifically for realtime DSP The special-purpose parts of the M1 chip give it a leg-up for those tasks (such as their Neural Engine). ![]() Google showed with the TPU (as has Musk and Microsoft with FGPAs) that you can vastly surpass the performance of NVidia's GPUs for machine learning (for example).Īt the same time, Epic's rendering engine doesn't rely on the RTX features, creating a different set of performance demands that could favour different architectures. Presently general-purpose GPUs are manipulated to perform a variety of SIMD tasks. The M1 also opts for more specialisation. And there are really no surprises, as Intel just happened to already be working on a similar design - Apple just got their out earlier. The benchmarks I've seen so far suggest it's about as good as Apple say it is. It was matching NVidia's T4 and is capable of running Unreal Engine 5. It's worth checking out Data Scientist benchmarks and their opinions on this.įrom what I can tell, the M1 was a whopper. ![]()
