Apple core is very good too. They did the opposite of Intel, intel puts a GPU in its CPU, but apple has put a CPU into a GPU ... The smart part of the apple architecture is the cache hierarchy that is good enough to filter the memory requests to the LPDDR5 controller.

Apple M1 Pro and Max review: CPU and GPU improvements offer an unparalleled combination of raw performance, unique acceleration, and power efficiency
Andrei Frumusanu / AnandTech :
Looking for the #M1Max bandwidth on this graph? Don't ! it is more than twice the Xeon Icelake top end monster ... I repeat, just to be sure, the #M1Max Macbook laptop has twice the bandwidth of the strongest Icelake Xeon ... https://twitter.com/...

IF I am intel, I get pretty scared, because we all know that Microsoft is preparing its own SoC for that target... Intel is the long term is expected to lose the business side, and running sysmark on it will not stop the migration. Intel has to start disrupting the PC soon. https://twitter.com/...

Intel seems to be unable to execute the winning strategy of the past, this is very sad to watch. Intel is entertaining exactly what apple wanted. We never apologized for fucking apple up with Core 2 duo, they had no other choice than to come with us. https://www.youtube.com/...

What does it tells you, as share holder: It tells you that: Intel fears the Mac. Intel does not know how to beat the Mac. Intel does not have direction or strategy against it. Intel is not a leader anymore on Desktop and laptop form factor. Intel falls into Apple's trap easily. https://twitter.com/...

Intel's 11th Gen desktop chips launch, with the flagship Core i9-11900K sporting eight cores, two less than last gen, and boosted clock speeds of up to 5.3GHz
I guess @Intel is done behaving as a leader, they now systematically publish and advertise for @AMD, showing that AMD is actually pretty close to them. You can't argue it, @intel is telling you!!! This is the 1st thing @PGelsinger needs to fix, the mind set: Intel is a leader. https://twitter.com/...

@stvngrdy @jonmasters @getwired @OVanhoja @lkruijsw @MrMilli79 @stratechery The ecomics do not make any sense without keeping the thing together.Those guys need to put their nose into the Intel financial reports before saying such stupid things. On the top of this, splitting intel while apple is attempt to consolidate in the other direction is plain dumb

Intel is in more danger than its profits suggest and should spin off its manufacturing business unless the US can subsidize it, ideally with purchase guarantees
Ben Thompson / Stratechery :
@stvngrdy @jonmasters @getwired @OVanhoja @lkruijsw @MrMilli79 @stratechery @benthompson How is the fabless strategy working for AMD? Even with good product, they are failing to capture market shares, because they are under prioritized compare to apple or nVidia who are ok to let TSMC collect better margin.

Apple is spanking Intel really bad, and intel top management is not equipped intellectually to compete with that.
