risc vs cisc isnt really that simple anymore, arm is less 'risc', particularly with extensions like neon and helium. Also x86 isnt 'cisc' either, intel mmx was the last cisc x86, and everything since uses decode instructions to run risc on the backend, and cisc instructions on the frontend. The big advantage ARM chips have for power, is their reliance on a lot of fixed function chips for specific tasks, ie dsp, isp's, dedicated video encode/decode etc. x86 chips are more general purpose. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Arm can for example play back video with much less power and heat, but are limited in to specific formats and not able to decode brand new video formats that weren't designed with fixed function logic in mind. x86 takes more power, but is much more flexible. For example android phone cameras are limited to the dsp on the arm chip, both for bitrate and resolution, and require newer dsp's for higher resolution. This is less of an issue on phones, as they dont last 5+ years, but will be interesting on desktop/server where hardware is around much longer. Edit: For example, the block diagram for the a12 shows less than half the silicon is used for cpu compute, even the gpu compute is relatively small. en.wikichip.org/wiki/apple/ax/a12

ARM licensees are free to fine tune their chips to suit their needs, so it's not really an issue. Some of the more specialised high performance ARM implementations already keep pace with x86. In the x86/64 world, GPUs (mid to high end), sound cards, Network, WiFi and Bluetooth are usually separate anyway, the CPU isn't responsible for a great many things. My ARM phones and tablets will play any audio/video format you care to throw at them, even when hardware acceleration isn't supported... so clearly that isn't an a huge problem.

@@another3997 Not quite, on desktops you have a cpu and a gpu. It doesnt have dedicated image processing (isp), digital signal processors, etc. Also unless your trying to decode av1/hevc with your arm i doubt you would notice. As modern arm have hardware dedicated for most codecs, and can fall back to neon for simd acceleration. Also the downside to having various fixed function is wasted space and transistor waste - no point having fixed function isp/dsp and video encode on a system designed to compute protein folding for example. I'm also not saying the arm chips themselves are weak, but the reason they can get good peformance/watt is because they leave most of the heavy lifting to dedicated sections. Neon is a good example or ARM having to add more complexity to the cpu itself to cope with non acceleratable tasks.

ARM is almost always implemented as an SoC and that means there's a lot more to supporting a given ARM implementation than just the core ARM CPU instruction set. So this means that, say, one Linux ARM distro for some popular ARM device will not necessarily run on some other ARM device. There is not nearly the same universality of an ARM hardware platform as there is an Intel/AMD x86-64 hardware platform. (And Apple's ARM implementations will likely be highly differentiated in this manner from the rest of the industry's ARM implementation.) Basically, ARM is very fragmented.

I’m not especially concerned about being able to install third-party software on the Mac. The Mac currently must exist for creating new software. And Apple explicitly talked up how the Mac would continue to be useful for development, including Linux server development with HyperKit and Docker. I’m a bit more concerned about how long the hardware will be supported. My current Mac is almost 7 years old, still supported in Big Sur, and Apple tends to support the OS with security updates for a couple years after the release of the next version. Microsoft has Apple roundly beaten, able to run Windows 10 on 13-year-old computers, and there’s always Linux for people who really badly can’t buy new hardware regularly. iPhones are supported far better than Android phones, but the longest an iPhone has been supported is about 5 years. And with all the proprietary Apple hardware and the security system that includes a proprietary firmware and bootloader, the Linux escape valve is less likely to be available.

@andreamitchell47584 жыл бұрын
No it's a new paradigm where computers in general become less powerful or at least lots of basic and important software for them becomes less dependent on local hardware resources and relies more on the cloud. I think this is a very bad development. This is seem to be going hand in hand with a total shift to cloud computing and removing freedom and control from the end user and also for these tech giants to spy on us even more and have even more ownership and control over our data and our creative works. I don't like it at all ,of course we already see companies moving this way toward cloud without this development but i am afraid this is going to really accelerate it , and it will make new hardware non compatible with legacy versions of programs that can still be run locally. They want to phase out our ability to own our own programs (or to crack them for free fair use) and have to rely of paying monthly fees like a service for them instead . Basically we are going to see Apple selling us $5000 chrome books and I-macs that are essentially a stationary chrome book sure they may not in fact be dumb terminals but in a lot of cases they will for all intents and purposes be functioning that way, running all the major apps and creation tools from the cloud where you will be paying for them like a service most likely . Sure they will have some power locally but not compared to a mac pro or a custom rig which they will phase out by making all new versions of their software only run on the cloud making it pointless to have more powerful machines since there will be no more new software versions that can run on x86. I think this is just a huge power grab and that it might also be because Moore's law is about to hit the wall and it will be to expensive to keep giving us significant power increases in new x86 or even ARM chips. Just look at the latest Apple fiasco involving fortnite, pulled from the app store because these companies want a 30% cut. These decisions are largely greed driven in the same way ,it's all about money and control not the end user experience. Even though x86 for mobile computing is hot garbage , literally (extremely poor TDP) and Intel always tells HUGE lies about it and the battery life every laptop i ever owned boasts 8 hours battery and is lucky to get 1.5 . even with brightness at the lowest setting and all radios turned off and doing nothing but playing solitaire you could not even get half the advertised battery life. but the cons still outweigh the pros

Andrea Mitchell Apple moving to ARM has absolutely nothing to do with moving to the cloud. It appears you are assuming that since ARM chips are currently mostly used in low power (in terms of performance) devices that that implies that Macs using ARM based chips must therefore be low performance devices. That’s wrong. There is nothing about the ARM ISA that prevents high performance CPUs from being based on it. Just take a look at the ARM based Graviton CPUs mentioned in the video that are available on AWS. But in regards to Apple specifically: First, Apple’s Mobile ARM chips are already as powerful as Intels laptop chips. Second, Apple has already said that the chips they are going to build for Macs will not be the same as for their Mobile devices, but instead will be a whole different family of chips, i.e. more performant. Third, the Mac Pro was only “re-born” less than a year ago. They are not going to be discontinuing it. But do expect it to be the last of Apple’s computers to make the ARM transition. Fourth, Apple is not Google. Apple is very much focused on “on device” processing. The more computing goes to the cloud, the less meaningful any differentiation that Apple offers makes a difference. That’s their whole reason for designing their own SOCs for Mobile: to be able to differentiate themselves from everyone else. Fifth, this is just a continuation of the approach that Apple has pursued since Steve Jobs’ return, that Apple, to the extent that they can, should control every significant technology that their products depend upon. So don’t worry about Apple’s move to CPUs they’ve designed being a harbinger of the end of personal computing as we know it. If that does happen, it will be for other reasons.

The funny thing is Apple moved away from the PowerPC risc processors to x86 because x86 required less power to run. Apple's G5 PowerPC was very fast, but it generated so much heat that it required liquid cooling and could not possibly be used in a laptop. IBM was mainly building the PowerPC around the super-computer market without much regard to power requirements, and this left Apple stranded for the laptop market. Around this time, Steve returned to Apple, they acquired NeXT which had the NeXTSTEP os already running on a wide variety of architectures, including x86, and OS-X was born and Apple moved away from PowerPC. Now, the wheel has turned full circle. Also of funny note, although IBM turned its back on Apple to focus the PowerPCs on super-computers, the Fugaku super-computer recently took the top notch on speed using Fujitsu A64FX ARM processors.

So 40% boost over standard EC2 vcpu should give you about 50-60% the performance of a modern Intel Xeon core. Apple ARM cpu design is likely to be superior then what Amazon uses(judging by apple's mobile ARM cpus), but still it's unlikely to be able to compete with current Intel and AMD flagships. We shall see.

Anandtech had a detailed comparison between the Graviton2 and current x86 cpus (both Amd and Intel) - the Graviton2 was quite competitive and came on top in a number of important benchmarks, including single thread performance. How this will translate to the Desktop and day-to-day use is anyone's guess, but future with ARM does look promising. The more choice - the better for consumers!

Back in the 1980s, Acorn Computers and their RISC machines and RISC OS promised all, but it never took off, and now Apple are to go ahead and embrace the ARM/RISC throughout their range? Makes you wonder why they abandoned PowerPC architecture? - not advanced enough at the time?, Intel x86 too powerful at the time?

It was a two person job one guy did the hardware and the other the instruction set. Acorn were looking for a new processor and went to the States to see what was new...They were not impressed at all..So decided to build their own. RISC was being discussed at the time by a small bunch of people, but that was all. They had a saying, 'MIPS for all' as they developed it. It has taken nearly 40 years so far, but we sure got our MIPS.

I don't want to be misconstrued in my assessment of CISC. Me saying that CISC is going away was not the best choice of words. I don't think it can completely disappear, because there are some distinct advantages with that type of architecture especially when using high level language compilers to create applications, or when additional low level instructions need to be added to a cpu. Discussing RISC vs CISC and the advantage, disadvantages, and usage of each would require a lengthy discussion, and I believe would make a good topic for a presentation. I believe ARM is going to have a significant and dominate role in the current X86 markets..

I hope some usability upgrades will spill over to Linux. Before Apple used CUPS for printing, the printer landscape under Linux was pretty barren and focused on postscript and HP compatible printers. Nowthedays nearly every printer runs without much interaction from the user under Linux. So Apple had indirect improved the printer landscape for Linux.

I tried it on an Apple ARM developer kit with the TransSkel5 implementation of Cocoa and with a bit of bug fixing it worked fine. So it seems that Apple have not altered the Cocoa widget set for ARM and so for the most part developers really will be able to recompile their X86 apps onto ARM and it will work. The only problem is that there doesn't seem to be a port of Xquartz to ARM yet and so X11 apps compiled for X86 Macs are not going to work; at least not yet.

In all the discussions that I have heard about this switch, there is one rather glaring point that does not get attentio, raw power. The reason that X86 is so dominant on PC/Laptop is that ARM chipd just don't have the power to be nearly as powerful, hence why ARM is, at the moment, a mobile platform. So the question is, with regards to Macbooks etc is who is going to want to switch from something like an i& powerhouse, to a puny ARM? Is there something about the progress of ARM that we don't know about that offers a real threat to Intel/AMD because if not then if I was a Mac owner then I would be rather worried about switching my proverbial Porsche 911 to a Ford Fiesta.

As long as Google wont put a lot of resources into creating desktop version of Android, IMHO x86 is not in any danger. It is sad actually because ARM based devices are far cheaper then x86 equivalents.

Actually, some Intel processors do in fact use RISC-like processing to take advantage of faster computing for certain instructions. What the video doesn't tell you is that for the same exact technology (e.g. lithography process & word length chips) CISC processors out-perform RISC processors. Anyone who has tried to do productive work on a RISC based computer knows they aren't as fast as CISC based systems. Intel offered the i960 RISC processor in the 90s & it was popular, but they didn't continue along that line because they choose to continue to offer higher performance hardware. The big deal with ARM processors is that they are less expensive & good enough for most of the sheeple of the world--but, most businesses are willing to pay for higher performance--and you aren't going to get that from RISC processors when you compare true apples to apples in throughput.

Fantastic and informative video. Thank you. I think the main reason Apple’s M1 is faster in certain applications than a counterpart x86 isn’t only because it’s RISC but because it doesn’t support some advance functions such as virtualisation (and visualisation acceleration), thus saving precious space on the silicon to add more functional units for mainstream applications such as video editing. There are other trade-offs such as faster RAM but limited in capacity (I think 16GB for now).
