    M1 Pro 8Core or 10Core CPU?

    Hey Guys, I am starting a tech youtube channel and I'm planning to get the 14 inch MacBook Pro with the M1 Pro chip for video editing. I am currently using the MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2017, Two Thunderbolt 3 ports) and it lacks at editing videos, the videos I usually deal with are ether 1080HD or...

    Please, post comparison of M1mbp Blender test!

    If you have access to 2 m1mbp's which are otherwise quite identical, but the other has 16GB of ram and the other one 32GB, Could you attach 4-5k monitor (or even two of those) to them and run Blender eevee Fox scene with those two machines and tell the resulting fps?

    Kernel_Task using 575 threads on 14'' M1Pro

    Have been using my new M1Pro 14'' (base model) for a week or so now and besides the memory leak issue (which I also have) I saw that kernel_task uses 575 threads and is quite often at the top of CPU consumption (in the screenshot the mac is pretty much idle with a few programs open in the...

    16 inch M1PRO is too cold

    Weather here is getting cooler. I have been using this 16 M1Pro since Sun and tonight I kid you not, the palm/wrist rest is extremely cold that I want to wear gloves while typing this. I am wondering if extreme weather situation could be bad for this epic machine, wondering if I should keep it...

    M1 Pro/Max One Cable Solution?

    Does anyone know if it's possible to run two displays from a single thunderbolt dock or usb-c hub? I'm unable to do this with an HP G2 docking station. (I was hoping to avoid using DisplayLink.) I currently run one monitor in portrait and one in landscape. I can get this two work on my new M1...

    Unable to add scanner

    Hello there, I just received the latest 14" MBP (M1 Pro) and upgraded to MacOS Monterey. So far so good. But now I want to add my scanner (HP ScanJet Pro 2500 f1) and I cannot find a way to do it. In System report it sees the scanner under connected USB devices, but when I try to add scanner...

    USB peripherals/dongles and new MBP w M1 Pro

    Yes it's insanely fast and beautiful BUT my new M1 Pro still needs a dongle for my desktop setup. And the peripherals don't work. The dongle (I hate saying "my dongle") with newish gaming keyboard and Evoluent mouse all work great with my 2016 MB Pro, my even older Mac Pro, and an Alienware...

    M1 Max Only Gets 39GB/s More Memory Bandwidth From the CPU Side than the M1 Pro

    The M1 Max only gets 39GB/s more memory bandwidth from the CPU side than the M1 Pro? That's really disappointing.

    SD is Good, but why not CF Express?

    Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that the SD card slot is back on the new MacBook Pro's but why not the increasingly common and faster CF Express type B. I get that SD is still more common for the consumer market but a lot of "Pro" cameras are using CF Express now and that wold seam more appropriate...

    14" MBP M1 Pro Console Twitch Streaming

    Hi there, I mentioned this in a previous thread, however, I thought I'd make it's own thread to get some better responses. I currently own a 13" late 2016 MBP and am planning to upgrade to a 14" M1 Pro MBP in the next month and was wondering if based on specs 5 years later what you would...

    How long until M1 Pro/Max accessories are released?

    I ordered my first new Mac in 8 years this week and am pretty excited to finally upgrade. I noticed that there are no protective cases available yet for the new 14" or 16" MacBook Pros. I searched my heart out and cannot find any information on when these may released by third parties. Does...

    MBP for Logic X/Native Instruments

    Hi Everyone, Need some advice on the new MBP's. I currently have a 2015 13-inch (2.7 GHz Intel Core i5 with 16GB Ram). I use the laptop for day-to-day tasks but the main reason I'm looking at the new MBP's is that I use my computer for heavy Logic X use (primarily with Native Instruments)...
