Apple's own SoCs (systems on a chip), which it calls "Apple Silicon," are technically ARM CPUs. ARM is just an architecture---Apple designs and manufactures its own CPUs. With Intel, Apple is entirely at the mercy of another company to develop and manufacture the CPUs for its Macs. Wi...
and there will be a transition period as Apple switches over to ARM, though this time it is likely to be longer. It's unlikely that Tim Cook will be able, or want to, emulate Steve Jobs's announcement that all Macs would be using Intel processors within two years. He'll...
It’s no secret that Intel has been down in the dumps for essentially all of 2024. You’d be hard-pressed to find any kind of good news surrounding the chip giant from the last 12 months. Raptor Lake was the flashpoint; the 13th and 14th Gen CPUs weredegrading rapidlyto the point whe...
Kuo slightly missed his estimate on how long the migration would take. While Apple CEOTim Cooksaid that the transition would takeabout two years, Kuo said that "we estimate that all Mac models will switch to ARM in 12-18 months," said Kuo, adding an "all-new form-fa...
But Bloomberg cites people familiar with the matter as saying that the new chips will "significantly outpace the performance of the latest machines running Intel chips." Apple's ARM-based M1 processor was launched in the new Mac mini, MacBook Air, and 13-inch MacBook Pro — all computers ...
Apple hasn't shared a ton of details about this, and no ARM Macs have yet been released outside of a secretive Developer Transition Kit. We'll have to wait and see how it works out. Related:How the Mac Will Switch From Intel to Apple's Own ARM Chips ...
the Intel 8006, there have been rapid developments in instruction set architectures including both the CISC and RISC instruction sets used by Intel/AMD and ARM, respectively. And now, there’s a new kid in town (Well, RISC-V is quite old and was founded in 2010. It’s still relatively ...
A lot of people are concerned about losing Intel software support on Mac after the Arm transition. As a developer, Im curious to know what software are you afraid to lose? Any games that barely survived The Culling of Catalina(TM). There are not too many of those,...
I don't think it's that TSMC are so much behind Intel as their drive to switch to BSPD is not the same i.e. not as urgent. But I also wouldn't be surprised if they bring N2P forwards to counter the "Intel is best" publicity onslaught... ;-) Reactions: Fred Chen, cykur, Da...
