Intel 12900HK is faster than M1 Max for both single and multi cores.

and if I did what do you think your comment would make me feel like?

Excellent response and far better than I’d have managed

All these benchmarks. My benchmark is opening the lid and “Does it feel fast? Yep!” And calling it a day. I honestly can’t see any reason to ditch my M1 MBP 13”. I’m no power user but it handled everything I want (except games) and has amazing battery life.

There's one thing that bothers me about my current setup. My Windows desktop wake from sleep routine is about 20 seconds. It's about 3 seconds on my M1 mini. I'd expect that some of that is hardware and some of that is Windows. Same thing with my MacBook Pro - it wakes from sleep really quickly.

Suspended… he‘s around somewhere else now

drop a hint hint where ?

Not sure if its allowed by forum rules… Maybe a hint: Its a platform you‘d use to „talk about“ something

A lot of people and I want to see ALL!! benchmarks and not hundred times the same three benchmarks.

Probably not great. Sorry.

The new Intel chip is great to hear. Competition is good, however it’s still in a Windows OS platform. When things go wrong with an Apple product it gets resolved rather quickly with less hassle. That’s just my opinion. I’ll stick with macOS

I love these threads.

Apple destroy completion : “omg! Look at these leaks. So much power! So good!”

Intel perform better than apple : “got to wait for real world tests”

Was thinking it but wasn’t gonna post it so thank you lol

I use an i7-10700 desktop that I built last year next to an M1 mini. The mini wakes up from sleep instantly. The Windows desktop takes about eight seconds and I have to click the mouse to get it to bring up the password box. It's a short amount of time but I have to do it every morning. I am going to try going all-Mac this week (M1 mini + M1 PRO MacBook Pro).

It should be interesting to see if Alder Lake can support Hackintosh. I've stopped doing Hackintosh since I got my M1 PRO MacBook Pro. It's not worth the effort now that Apple has great hardware.

For the record I do live in a rougher area of Seattle, but it's still Seattle, so I'm not worried about my own house being broken into etc. (which I should I guess, since it happened once but I got security cameras so..) but I do worry about what I typically use laptops for, live performance of electronic music etc. I really don't want to ever lose a 4K laptop at a show, I can handle the loss of a 1.5k laptop at a show.

Hm, don’t you have insurance in the US?

Hm, don’t you have insurance in the US?

Depends a lot on if your home/renters/etc insurance covers items while they aren’t physically at your residence, what restrictions are in play, etc. US policies can get convoluted here. Some items you can call out explicitly and pay extra to get covered, but it’s potentially cheaper to self-insure depending on the actual risk.

But also keep in mind Seattle is a high cost of living area in the States. A regressive state tax structure dependent on sales taxes, US cities in general being car dependent, lack of affordable housing for various reasons, and a bunch of well-paid tech employees driving up prices on what housing there is can screw up the equation for an awful lot of folks who aren’t working for a big tech company in the area.
