What? It's a new chip! Cuz you don't want one you shouldn't be advising people with misinformation. CPU ^ 18%. GPU ^ 35%. SELL YOUR M1s PEOPLE AND MOVE ON UP!
A) calm the heck down.
B) you should never use benchmarks without mentioning the source.
C) you should never use benchmarks without mentioning the test that’s been used.
D) you should never use a single benchmark, always compare at least two or three, they rarely give the same result
E) you should never just trust benchmarks provided by the manufacturer. They usually choose the one that gives the best result. See point G).
F) you should mention if the benchmark is single core or multicore.
G) you should mention... what the benchmark even is about! You picked Apple's very ambiguous power/performance benchmarks, not just the raw power ones that most people care about. You probably didn't even know that. Well, that kind of benchmark claimed the Mac Studio has a GPU as good as a 3090 and... it's just not true for the maximum power, it is in a low-consumption scenario that's very convenient for Apple but not what most GPU users care about.
H) it’s a new chip but surely not a complete architectural change like the M1.
I) it’s a new chip but not even a complete generational redesign. All CPU manufacturers use about the same structure for two or three generations before making any major changes (M2 has the same NM process and same core count).
J) you shouldn't just trust me but read basically all relevant tech reviewers agreeing is a welcome but ultimately unimpressive update, nothing to sell your computer for.
In conclusion, you've made a long list of very noob mistakes, replied rudely and called my post misinformation. You can save this for the next time you try to talk about CPUs and GPUs. You're welcome.
(And if you were being sarcastic, as I hope, you still just passed as rude).
