Both Intel and AMD gotta watch out for Arm it seems. All their efforts are going in vain because of Apple’s and Microsoft’s decisions to use Arm, which is supposedly inferior.

The apple one potentially hurts them long term but Microsoft and arm is a very small set of devices. The thing that gets me is a how a chip that really is inferior in Terms of pure processing power is able to outperform Intel and amd in many areas in these new Macs. What the hell did Apple do differently than all other Arm manufacturers?

They etched the RAM into the CPU + GPU die instead of having a separate module. That's the main difference.

Those power requirements are nuts under full load. If they don't compete with AMD on price that single core performance isn't going to mean as much
