>>109642951What a sudden announcement of M6, I thought it would be announced at the September event with the MacBook Ultra or whatever.x86-64 desktop PCs still didn't catch up to the raw performance of Apple M1 in a MacBook Air, so I guess Apple isn't too worried.

>>109642970>x86-64 desktop PCs still didn't catch up to the raw performance of Apple M1 in a MacBook Airhow can one ifag be so wrong
>locked bootloadersno thanks
>>109642970first time an M chip is releasing on a PC before an iPad right? new times for Apple indeed
are they still cutting corners on the SSDs and artificially cutting the speed in half?
>>109643447Mac bootloaders are literally unlockable officially, that's how Asahi Linux exists in the first place
>>109642951how many times are they gonna kill x86 until x86 is dead?
>>109643487They haven't done that since the M2 I think?
>>109642951>THIS KILLS THE x86not until it is fully supported by linux, nope.
>>109642951It's crazy how Apple ships new chips so quickly and regularlyBy the time AMD releases Zen 6 for laptops Apple will have done gone from M4 to M7
>>109643551they did it for the m3 too and i stopped caring since then
>>109643475>Mac PC >tablet They're the same shit, so no big deal
>>109643656because AMD went full into serversthey don't care about desktop 'puterssure apple is moving fastthey are already cooking m7 probably?wtf is even intel doing with their 180W thermo nuclear reactors, LOL?
>>109642970least delusional macfag
>>109643583no one outside of india uses linux
>>109644005TIL india encompasses entire earth
>>109644005only women and faggots use macos
>>109644024most people on earth use Windows & BSD operating systems on their computers
>>109643516I'll see you when Apple drops out the support.>>109644005FYI, a fake Apple larper Indian posted this.
I love my macbook pro m4 proBut I also love my Arch Linux desktop for gaming
i will never buy a 'mac'
Too bad their lack of cooling means it becomes a toaster even playing 20 year old games https://youtu.be/pTKCjC7fXss
>Cyberpunk on a MiniImagine the molten lava
>>109642970did they say they aren't going to upgrade macbooks with M6 Pro/Max until 2028
>>109643516and after years of work you have incomplete support only for M1 and M2 chipsbuying of apple silicon is collecting e-waste
>>109644084Well the base macbook air is def not for gaming, but the 16 inch pro version has active fans like regular laptop. Also modern wow is not 20 years old game, the engine is different.>>109642970>>109644127Upcoming ultra redesign will use m5 pro/max variant. There won't be m6 pro/max variant. Only with m7 next year.I think they are testing 2NM production with this product, before they commit.>>109644128m1 still has latest macOS support + golden gate (which will be like 3 years after they will release it?) after that they still release security updates for last 2 macOS versions, at that point m1 will have 10+ years of support.
>>109644128>buying of apple silicon is collecting e-wasteas opposed to buyingm1 minis with 8gb of ram are going to outlast your modern plastic laptop with ryzen
>>109644231my plastic laptop with ryzen can work endlessly with Linux installedApple will work as long as Apple will support it
>>109644256>Apple will work as long as Apple will support itIt will last forever when i install asahi linux on it
>>109644256>my plastic laptop with ryzen can work endlessly with Linux installedYeah, but it's slow and laggy with malware directly installed from official arch aur repos.
>>109644005Moron
>>10964408414 inch m4 pro mbp here, yeah it gets hot trying to do anything not super simple gamingdo I need to use one of those fan controls?
>>109642951>x86x86 will never die so long as apple keeps their shit locked downwe're really fortunate to have x86 and how open it ended up being
>>109642951How good will it be at Blender?
Retard
>>109644926Have you found an altchan that focuses on actual tech?I'm tried umigalaxy but it's vive coded and there's only a webp autist posting there.
>>109644909everything besides rendered viewport and rendering will probably be insane. it's already quite good on the m4/m5 pro+ chips. but without cuda, it will still be so far behind even modest nvidia cards
>>109645086>but without cuda, it will still be so far behind even modest nvidia cardsThe M5 Max already beats the 3090 Ti and 5070 Ti, and comes within inches of the 4080 Super.https://opendata.blender.org/
>>109644122No gen Z boss though?
>>109644957>I'm tried umigalaxy but it's vive coded and there's only a webp autist posting there.Not so different from current state of 4chan
>>109645147fair point but it's also 3x the price
>>109642951Maybe if they actually made the cpus available. But they only come soldered into shitty Mac garbage that I would not even accept for free.
>>109642951>THIS KILLS THE x86soon
>>109642951I think Apple really was on the way to killing x86 for a few years starting with M1, but this 50% price bump completely annihilates their momentum.
>>109642951If Apple were sufficiently motivated to take over the global computing scene they probably could, I'm glad they're still hamstrung by wanting to be the gucci of tech.
Can you game on it?
