A series vrs Intel?

Could TSMC and Apple realistically make chips that compete with Intel at the high end? The current A12 chips are said to be as fast as the Intel chips in other laptops, but they don't try to compete with desktop chips.

I don't think it is realistic for Apple to keep using Intel in their high end macs while using A series in laptops.

No. Even ayymd can't make decent desktop chips.

Geekbench is heavy dependence on cache memory, mostly test begin very small workload fit on cache A11 or A12.

A series begin a lot weak than intel or amd desktop processor.

Applel is a fucking joke and the only thing they know how to do is take stock ARM cores and add AES units to cheat at artificial benchmarks.

My iPhone doesn't do that, and it has a slower chip. If your objective is to make a hit piece, you are always going to find a way to make the device you don't like slower.

TSMC yes because they only do the lithography and are good at it. Applel lol no.

doesn't even matter, apple could switch to their own chip with -25% performance and sell it for the same amount and it wouldn't effect sales.

They just wait for their GPU to reach 1TF to actually merge iphone and macbook

>TSMC yes because they only do the lithography and are good at it. Applel lol no.

That makes no damn sense. Please think before typing.

But AMD desktop chips are already better than Intel's.

Lol
Game benchmarks say otherwise

That makes no damn sense.
Gookbench is fucking mobile trash that implements ZERO x86 enhancements while being heavily dependent on Apple-only crypto units which are useless for general processing tasks.

It isn't an Apple only thing, its an ARM thing. Geekbench integer scores for moth single and multi threaded are massively skewed by the AES performance. All ARM cores have baked in AES accelerators.
If you look at the other individual test metrics ARM is still a ways behind X86 in a lot of vital areas.

Yea, I'm going to take the word of some swearbot over that of legitimate computer press.

Apple is not going to be fooled by some skewed test. They have already ported MacOS to A-series and seen the real world results so they wouldn't be allowing these rumors to float around unless it was at least plausible. And if it is some kind of bluff, well Intel wouldn't be fooled by such benchmarks either.

What the fuck do you even think you're saying?
No one is fooled here expect the clueless consumer who looks at the meta score without examining the single line results of Geekbench tests.

But they do? Amd is bad for gaming

how much are you paid? honestly

>bad
>~6 to 9 percent slower in certain applications
>over 50% faster in other applications

also most new games are shit
but they all run fine.

you're GPU-bound anyway at any resolution above 1080p, or at any refresh rate lower than 144hz.

He can't even answer your question. This is how you know how bad things really are.

>intel is still better a games tehe
Can you grow the fuck up and realise that gaming performance is far from the most important aspect of a processor.

Not if that is what you do with your PC. The best tests are with the Apps YOU are going to use.

Right now, the most accurate tests of the A-series chips are real world use against other cell phones and tablets. And there, Apple solidly beats everyone else in sight, including tablets with intel chips.

So the real question is: How easy is it to scale up computing power when you remove the need to conserve battery life? An A-series mac will obviously not use the same chip as a cell phone, but might use multiples of them...
