The apple M1 is fast because it has encoders for video formats. When they use a non-supported codec it flats flat on its rear end.

The m1 is still the fastest quad core processor period (I don't count the 4 power saving cores, because multithread performance is only ~4x single thread instead of ~8x like on other 8 core cpus). The m1x should be 8+4 core and murder every other 8 core cpu.

redeyes posted:The apple M1 is fast because it has encoders for video formats. When they use a non-supported codec it flats flat on its rear end. What are you even talking about? Can you provide some kind of benchmark to back up whatever it is you're saying? The M1 is a fast processor, period. It's very competitive on pure performance in its market segment (quad core mobile chips) and it absolutely slays on performance per watt-hour. This holds across all kinds of synthetic benchmarks that don't measure video encoding performance, and on various software-only video encoding performance tests. Intel has a hardware encoder as well. So does AMD (although they tie it to their integrated graphics rather than the CPU itself). All three hardware encoders are very fast and power efficient, but don't offer tuning options, and don't do incredibly well on output quality or compression efficiency. So, serious video editing work might use the hardware encoders for previews, but will render out the final result with a higher-quality, slower software encoder.

I admit there are sort of limited cross platform benchmarks to compare the M1 vs x86 but I've seen a bunch of software devs on twitter commenting on how quickly they can compile their apps on the new M1 vs pretty much any Intel mac. I'm pretty sure that isn't due to any fixed-function hardware on the chip, it's just fast.

gradenko_2000 posted:how does it hold up in gaming though Depends- are you talking about native, x86 MacOS games running under Rosetta 2, ROMs running under a native emulator, ROMs running under an x86 emulator under Rosetta 2, or Windows games running via crossover/wine? As far as I’ve seen, pulling from all of those categories games either run surprisingly well, shockingly well, or they simply don’t run at all.

Anandtech ran quite a few tests: https://www.anandtech.com/show/16252/mac-mini-apple-m1-tested I picked up a M1 Air a few days ago. It's absurdly fast for a fanless computer. Also incredibly power efficient.

Seems pretty early for full(ish?) clock Rocket Lake to be showing up in prebuilt leaks, wonder if it’s coming sooner than the rumored March? https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/5125074

This is the top RL since they aren't doing the 10 core this gen, right? The numbers look identical to the 5800x so mayne I'll actually be able to get one of these before the Zen lol.

AFAIK yes the i9 for Rocket Lake is going to be an 8-core the reported max frequency of 4.8 GHz is roughly in line with the leak from mid-October gradenko_2000 posted:A Rocket Lake leak? EDIT: It's good that Rocket Lake might be capable of matching Zen 3 if it means it's going to push AMD to either drop prices or come out with non-X versions of its Ryzen 5000 SKUs. gradenko_2000 fucked around with this message at 10:09 on Dec 3, 2020 |

Rocket Lake is still a monolithic arch with a ring bus, right? I'm curious to see how die yields for it on a super-mature node will compete with Ryzen chiplets. This matters for stuff like Silicon Lottery's binning and also what to expect for quality/endurance in general

Cygni posted:Seems pretty early for full(ish?) clock Rocket Lake to be showing up in prebuilt leaks, wonder if it’s coming sooner than the rumored March? So compared to a 3800X, they're matched for single thread perf but the Rocket Lake has a 10% lead in multicore. It would be interesting to know where the discrepancy comes from.

Will also be interesting to see if that 20% increase in single thread over a 10900k in Geekbench actually results in a 20% lift in games. If it does, that would be a pretty massive jump and should be the clear gaming leader. I'm kinda skeptical of that though. Also gonna be interesting to see if Z590 is just Z490 + mandatory PCIe 4.0 support on the CPU lanes, cause i dont see anything else new on the Tiger Lake laptops chipset really?

MSI leaked Rocket Lake again with the same 3.4 base 5ghz boost frequency. 125w stated TDP. Im actually considering it if da gamez framez are good/better than Zen 3, otherwise ill prolly spring for a 5900x/5950x. https://videocardz.com/newz/msi-mistakenly-reveals-8-core-16-thread-intel-rocket-lake-s-cpu-z-specificaitons

Are current intel mobo chipset's also furnaces like the AMD ones? That is one thing putting me off of getting a zen3 (and the absolute lack of availability here in Europe). I've been going "Ohh I could possibly wait one more generation till I upgrade" for 3 years now, whats another half year...

It's really x570 that gets hot so unless you actually need the additional bandwidth for some reason, b550 is a good option for zen 3.

Zeta Acosta posted:What's the Intel equivalent of the 3600x? The i5-10400 (or the F model) is the 6-core-12-thread CPU from Intel's 10th gen. This is a locked (no-overclocking) part, and while you can't always compare performance based just on clock speeds, the max turbo of the 10400 is only 100 MHz behind that of the 3600X (and greater than the 3600 non-X). What holds the 10400 back is the issue with memory speeds: if you're not going to overclock, then you could make-do with an H410 or B460 motherboard, since those boards don't allow for overclocking... which is fine if you're getting a locked chip, but then your memory speed is limited to 2666 MHz*. The only way to allow your memory to run faster would be to get a Z490 board, but if you're getting a board that lets you overclock, then you're also leaving some performance on the table by not getting an overclockable CPU, which brings us to... the i5-10600K (or the KF model) is the 6-core-12-thread CPU that's unlocked. Having said all that this issue with memory speed caps against the boards and the locked/unlocked CPU models is problematic because you're looking at something like a 150+ USD gap in pricing between the 10400 and an H410 board, versus a 10600K and a Z490. ___ * i3 and i5 CPUs are limited to 2666 MHz memory speeds on an H410 / B460. i7 and i9 CPUs are limited to 2933 MHz on the same boards.

VorpalFish posted:IIRC at least for gaming comet lake with 2933 is faster than zen2 with 3600. The overclockable/higher turbo models maybe, but the 10400 is locked at 2666 MHz memory so a 3600 with a half decent memory kit ends up sweeping both gaming and all core benches. Really hoping Intel doesn't kneecap their mid-range chipsets again with Rocket Lake.

I could have sworn I saw something about manufacturers saying that low-/mid-range 500-series boards (coming out to coincide with Rocket Lake) are going to support higher memory speeds, but I can't dig up a source anymore and googling just gives me Smart Access Memory hits.
