>Xbox One S performance
So slightly weaker than a Radeon 7870?
Justin Murphy
>1000x faster
big, if true
Levi Rodriguez
Xbox One S
So 1,000 bucks for 2016 performance?
Cooper Cooper
>Apple went bold and said the iPad Pro is faster than 92 percent of mobile computers, including m any Intel Core i7 processors.
Ryan Butler
>and still no ARM Mac
Apple is wasting their lead by being tied down to Intel.
Cooper Williams
They said that the A12X is faster than 92% of all portable PCs out there & they even mentioned low-power Core i7 processors as the ones the A12X surpasses in performance.
Jackson Adams
I wonder how quickly it thermal throttles.
Gavin Russell
Even A12 in iPhone got pretty close to i7 chips. It's only limited by the power envelope since it can't run maxed out with passive cooling.
Robert White
Supposedly that will be happening in the near future
Dominic Kelly
Depends on exposed area of ones legs and sweatiness of the user's skin.
Anthony Jenkins
According to Rossman, thermal throttling and build quality has never been an issue on iPads
Jacob Reyes
>Apple compare own FP16 GPU agains AMD 6 years old FP32 GPU
Dylan Thompson
>pack a big total of 6 trillion jews in a tiny silicon square
>use it on imessage, whatsapp, instagram and snapchat
why do smartphone manufacturers do this
Josiah Martinez
...
Jason Peterson
It's called windows compat and thunderbolt.
Dylan Brown
>shit on €200 device with a €1000 device
wow
Jaxon Butler
hey i was making a big number joke there, it can be 6 million whitey crackers if you want
still doesn't explain why so much processing power goes to dumb thot shit though
Carson Howard
>2016 performance
The XboneS doesn't even have top end 2010 performance, let alone 2016. It's about equivalent to a 7770.
Angel Nguyen
Does the Xbox One S work without a TV and a power cord?
Dominic Long
iPad Pro run Forza Horizon 4?
Nathaniel Young
Technically it should be bored with it.
Isaac Carter
It can operate TV-free, but it relies on game streaming.
Power cord is necessary for both.
Jacob Morgan
shitposting and being an edgy cunt is not the same, my dude.
Asher Sullivan
>FP16
James Wilson
Then why oh why does Apple not put these "amazing" processors in their Macs? This year on year +30% while everybody struggles smells like BS.
Gabriel Jones
>as good as the slowest xbox one
>as good as a console from 2013
I N N O V A T I O N
fucking itoddlers will fall for this
Mason Wright
>as good as laptop hardware from half a decade ago that sells for $200
lol
Landon Bailey
because its an arm chip
Jackson Green
So we got a sick new tablet gpu where we can't equal a regular GPU from 2012... wait, why are you laughing? STOP SELLING OUR STOCK BBY PLS
Daniel Fisher
Probably because they are too afraid of backwards compatibility issues instead of telling the x86 cucks to take it or fuck off.
>This year on year +30% while everybody struggles smells like BS.
Well, Intel stagnated for a while now because they relaxed too hard over lack of competition, while AMD is just beginning to catch up and barely have any money. Other ARM chip makers are pretty poor too. It's not shocking that a company with Apples resources would dominate any field they went into.

William Carter
NPC code stucks posting Apple threads
Hudson Campbell
So, when are we finally going to get an Apple ARM chip running full Linux, so we can compare its actual performance on the same platform instead of having to rely on those inconsistent geekbench meme numbers?
I don't doubt that their chip is insanely powerful for its power budget, but never ever should it be able to compete with Intel's 25+ Watt chips.
Landon Bell
I need a good tablet and screen quality is my priority, should I just get last year's iPad Pro?
Evan Long
You do realise that most Intel chips are VERY similar and the TDP is more about the cooling than performance, right?
Non geekbench shit.
anandtech.com
Jonathan Cox
Weaker than GTX 750
Christopher Harris
Still quite incredible how much you can pack a 7850's level of performance on the tiny chip. Imagine if each of these tiny gpu were built into the motherboard. Or maybe in 5-10 more years, we'd see 1060/580 level performance in the size of a penny.
Noah Cox
SPEC2006 is outdate, Now use SPEC2017
Adrian Ward
Everyone knows Apple's chips have similar behavior to Intel y/m chips. They're likely bursting up much, much higher for short periods of time and not reporting it to external sensors because we know that every apple product has terrible throttling. Which is by design to save power. If Samsung fixed Mongoose M3's power gating and core migration behavior then you'd see the M3 get close to 80% of the performance of the A12. This works on mobile because 99% of the work done on a phone or tablet is fixed for every short periods of time. We see on fixed, long workloads like physics benchmarks running for several minutes the performance is still good but only about inline with similar competitors
Elijah Lopez
>1000x faster GPU
so why was it so bad before?
Jason Long
I'll repost what I posted in another apple shill thread before it got nuked
>A12X already rapes both Intel and AMD in terms of IPC and power efficiency.
>Unironically trusting those benchmarks
Yes, I'm sure a closed source platform coming from the least consumer friendly company in the world wouldn't detect benchmarking software and fudge the results.
You know yourself how full of shit this is. A company that can't make a functioning laptop that doesn't break through normie usage yet they manage to engineer a silicon miracle? While losing in daily usage benchmarks to cheap chinkphones?
Joshua Cooper
While outdated it's probably to the benefit of an older Intel CPU.
notebookcheck.net
There are some more numbers. Obviously not optimal to compare them 1-1 but everything hints to it smoking Skylake.
Also keep in mind, this is the much weaker A12 in a fucking phone.
Do you even understand how benchmark fuckery is working? Even if they did mess with the results, it would still indicate that A12 can get there, given enough cooling, which is given in a larger body.
Hudson Myers
>You do realise that most Intel chips are VERY similar and the TDP is more about the cooling than performance, right?
No shit, that's basically what TDP has always been about.
Still, if your chip has a higher TDP, and your cooling system can support it, the higher TDP chip will perform better than the lower TDP one.
Did Intel even have different core designs for mobile and desktop chips where there were more differences other than clock speed and maybe manufacturing process?
>A12X already rapes both Intel and AMD in terms of IPC
"no"
Kevin Williams
>buys $200 gaymer laptop from 2012
>keyboard is all sticky with tons of worn out keys
>screen has white spots
>battery is dead
>hinges are all loose
>b-b-but you can replace a-all of it!
>gpu dies anyway because previous owner never changed the thermal paste
Juan Diaz
For a mobile gpu that's insane that used to be a 200w graphics card
Jordan Reyes
>Did Intel even have different core designs for mobile and desktop chips where there were more differences other than clock speed
Maybe more cache and access to more PCI lanes but basically, no.
Asher Williams
Perfect, just what i wanted for my sick fortnite plays on my tablet!
Cameron Wright
>3DMark - Ice Storm Unlimited Physics
Weak as AMD A6.
SPEC2006 beneficie more simple CPU for outdate task.
Asher Russell
Name me one tablet that can compete with the iPad, I used to avoid anything Apple, but their tablets combined with the pencil are actually good for work, even if its expensive as fuck.
>in b4 use a laptop instead
I have a thin and light high end gayming laptop, it doesn't replace my tablet.
Luke Richardson
Would it be possible to put an arm & x86 processor in the same computer and delegate certain tasks to whichever processor handles it better?
Bentley Sullivan
Is this going into macbooks?
Evan Cooper
Sadly not.
Carson Diaz
microsoft surface
Josiah Hill
>Presenting the MacBook Pro: Even more Housefire edition(tm)
Eli Martinez
They're probably getting ready to switch macs over to ARM
Owen Allen
Xbox one S is slightly above Radeon HD 7770, 6 years old,$150 and 75 TDP.
Julian Cox
I like how they advertise GPU performance comparing it to a console. macOS is terrible as a platform for games, no matter the hardware. No games with wrappers run at more than 25% speed of what you get on either Linux/Windows, and native titles are mostly laptop tier shit that you can run on cheap thinkpads.
This won't run fucking Deus Ex: Human Revolution properly.
Connor Barnes
maybe, being able to run windows was a big selling point in the past
Robert Cox

Connor Williams
>According to Rossman, thermal throttling and build quality has never been an issue on iPads
Just thermal expansion.
Evan Perez
measured only in geekbench i assume?
Ayden Bennett
Yeah, I'm still not paying the Apple tax, though.
Jack Williams
because its absolute retardation to believe that apple is doing something with only a few watts that others need >100 watts to match. scaled geekbench benchmarks does not mean that a mobile CPU has the same processing power as a desktop CPU and theres no way thermally an igpu is going to reach the same potential as a 10: x 4" discrete GPU with active cooling.
Ian Peterson
because apple ALWAYS uses geekbench to showcase their ridicoulous amount of perfomance
and oh well when people gets their devices on their hands its a whole new different world...
Hudson Smith
Sure but now even Windowsfags don't want to run Windows, while there is an ARM version either way.
All they need to do is getting their core productivity 3rd party tools on ARM and are clearly doing it on iOS already. They had some weird ass project name for porting iOS apps to MacOS, so it's clearly moving that way, just so slowly. And specially now that Intel totally tanks and AMD still haven't figured out low TDP CPUs, the moment seems perfect.
Cooper Ramirez
>while there is an ARM version either way.
forgot about this. I'm sure apple could get win10 officially supported on their A12X
Jackson Bell
yes we all wanna run windows on a hugely inferiori system just so that we can get the "apple feeling"
Blake Gray
any memebench leaks yet?
Adam Baker
This
Robert Adams
Sure they had coprocessors back in the 90s very common especially the sgi and early Intel stuff
Noah Phillips
Holy shit my pay to win babby App Store games will be so much better now!
Isaiah White
But App store had zelda ripoff made by pajeets or emulator PS2 games and 2 years old steam indies.
Jason Clark
Tappy Mario! Whee, 1up, śòy!
Levi Perez
The iPad wont be able to handle it, it will have significant overheating issues if they dont implement some sort of active cooling, Mark my words.
Xavier Powell
>Did Intel even have different core designs for mobile and desktop chips where there were more differences other than clock speed and maybe manufacturing process?
Atoms(and some celerons, especially mobile) have different core design.
Adam Green
>just bought an entry level ipad 3 months ago
I just use it to read e-books anyway.
Brody Lopez
It’s great for that, remember to go to your Settings app, General, Display Accomodations, Reduce White Point for night time reading. Also GoodReader is the app of choice for PDFs.
Evan Rodriguez
>So slightly weaker than a Radeon 7870?
Actually more like the 7790, so basically low medium tier 2013 tech.
So complete fucking trash, I would be embarrassed if I was Apple.
Logan White
>just bought an iPad Pro 2 months ago
I want to die
Alexander White
>Jokes
Daniel Adams
You dense motherfucker would knew that new iPads were coming within the following months and what to expect had you done any kind of research.
Landon Miller
But will never have games of that quality because the lack of storage means no big games with decent textures can happen.
Austin Clark
Yeah, lack of storage is by far the biggest issue on a fucking tablet when it comes to gayming.
Ryder Myers
Probably.
I'm still kind on the fence on the new one, since I feel FaceID is retarded, especially on a tablet, so it's not all that bad.
Caleb Collins
Just one of many flaws
Jack Lewis
Not really. 1TB version is available if you aren't a poorfag; but then again if you aren't a poorfag, you wouldn't waste your life away to escape into vidya.
Cooper Parker
you can't compare x86 and arm
Elijah Morris
Oh stupid me, why would I have bought a nintendo switch when I could get an ipad pro with the performance of a xbox one?
:^)
Aaron Phillips
And here am I dreaming about a PSP with A12. Or at least some Apple clone of it for 3x the price. Seems like such a waste to use it for tablet gaming.
Michael Ward
Your using a worst case scenario, something nobody would even want, how about a semi decent laptop in moderate condition? How 90% of the things you would even think about getting would be, and then you can upgrade it
Christopher Morales
>take RPI zero
>fit to PCI-e 1X
>finally a use for that slot besides overpriced sound cards
I love the idea of having an ARM based os with X86 executables running in parallel and vice versa. It sounds comfy as fuck.
Angel Morgan
I fully expect it to get ridiculously predictable results in Geekbench and most benchmark apps, but thermally throttle and generally not be any more useful than the old generation iPad Pro because of the crippling OS they use on it.
Joseph Howard
>can't type text without lagging
Owen Rodriguez
And by ridiculously predictable I mean take the number of cores the A12X has in comparison to the A12 and then increase the Geekbench score by the difference.
Nicholas Gonzalez
I was thinking about making something like what the PS4 does with its southbridge/arm co-processor.
The way I have it set up at the moment is just changed $DISPLAY to be my main machine and it does work okay-ish, what I want to do is to have my main rig send a signal to the Pi when it's shutting down and have it start shit like a torrent client and resume where the main system left off.
Kayden Phillips
>he posted it again XD
Adam Price
>Ipad
>work
if you're not in a terminal, vim and ssh all day you aren't doing any work
tablets aren't good at any of those
