    How much ram does the GPU use on Arm Chips (M2)? (Shared Memory)

    Running a 2019, 15inch 32gb MBP and my memory pressure occasionally goes into orange when going heavy in After Effects. Looking at buying a new machine, don't want to pick up a 64gb unnecessary as I would need to go for the Max Chips. But my concern is that the ram is shared between the GPU...

    Graphite PM G4

    Hey guys, I’m new here! I have several Macs, and I’ve been learning as I go over the past few months. I recently purchased three powermacs, a graphite, quicksilver and MDD. None are currently functioning, but the graphite came to me the closest. It powers on and chimes weakly, but the monitor...

    GPU compute & thermal performance

    I have been holding off buying my first Apple silicon machine in order to consider the Mac Pro version. But, for what I would use, the new Mac Studio may be a great option. So I would be most grateful for answers to a couple of questions (and any other thoughts that any of you might have)...

    GPU vs. CPU M2 & M1 Processors

    I am in the market for a new Mac and I'm dealing with the M2 Pro Mac Mini vs. M1 Pro Max Mac Studio for a new job I have begun. I've ran the configurator for both machines and there is about $200 difference between the two computers so the price is basically a wash. So that leaves me with...

    I just woke this mornig with an idea, like to poll the interest for an opensource project for solving NVRAM / BootROM headaches and accelerate BootROM / UEFI / GPU Rom / GOP developments. There are so many users around doing critical NVRAM / GPU card flashing which costs a lot of time while...

    Buying 16" M2 Macbook Pro - Do I upgrade GPU/RAM?

    I do a lot of video editing - music videos mostly. All in 1080p, I might make the transition to 4k but that's not quite in demand by my clients just yet. Just to be clear, I'm getting the 1TB HD so that's not what is in question here. I'm curious if the base 19-core GPU/16GB RAM will suffice...

    Mac Studio Ultra Poor GPU Performance

    I'm a long time Mac user and "upgraded" from a iMac Pro with an eGpu to a Mac Studio Ultra. What a disappointment. I have never been disappointed with a Mac product like this. I am happy with CPU performance but a lot of my work is GPU based. I can't upgrade, I can't connect an eGpu. I'm stuck...

    MP 7,1 My x2 Duo's are slooow

    For about a year I've been trying to figure out the interactive viewport lag I get when using Redshift and Cinema 4D. By lag I mean usability lag, beach balling, etc etc. After some messing about I discovered that: 1. A single 5700MPX has no lag issues, just slow at rendering. 2. A single...

    MBP M1 Max - supspicious GPU usage

    So I've bought MBP M1 Max 32 cores less last month. Since then I've been monitoring CPU & GPU usage and temperatures by iStat Menus. Until yesterday CPU usage rarely exceeded 8-10% (GPU even less, I'd say 3-5%) and temperatures showed 48-55 °C. To be honest, that is because I didn't run more...
