It is absolutely disgusting to make video like these. The Intel Mac Mini has 64GB of RAM. For tasks that require a lot of RAM, it will excel. If your tasks can fit inside 16GB of RAM, the Intel CPU cannot match the speed of M1. It is slow comparing with M1 Mac Mini. However, those RAM is needed when the task requires. In that case, it beats the hell out of M1. I do not believe running virtual memory can be faster in M1 Mac than real DRAM. M1 can beat the fastest super computer in the world if you fit a small task withinn 16GB memory footprint. Is a M1 Mac mini faster than than the Fujitsu supercomputer. Can an M1 Mac mini run nuclear bomb explosion simulation?

I understand you’ve seen claims I’m telling you I own both of them and I can get 50 to 70 frames per second rendering and I can barely get 15 which is great on the M1 compared to the Intel without a discreet graphics card.

I get 18 FPS with Neat Video and close to 80 FPS with Film Convert. And I can run Final Cut and render that at the same time and use Photoshop. Stop - not the same.

Bought my m1 mini mac a few hours ago. Thanks for confirming I made the right decision.

[@blackpepper2610]

Leaving comment here to keep up with the drama,

[@dial2616]

I mean, there are still concerns with the platform. Multitasking and BSD-based kernels aren't very nice bedfellows, so there's obvious limitations with 16 gigs of memory and having multiple windows up. Especially in a world where we're using more and more web technologies, 16 gigs won't run the same way in a few years, especially on a system that prioritizes uncompressed memory and encourages users to idle programs. That's all without mentioning the ethical concerns: Like Windows, MacOS is closed source. Since Apple is in kahoots with the NSA, it can be pretty safely inferred that all of their encryption features backdoor keys (which has to be the case, since Macs encrypt lots of data that gets magically turned over to the police, 18,000 times a year. From a technical standpoint, It's really not even that impressive either. Apple was the first to release on 5nm, which is cool, but if you know anything about die size, it's only going to get worse for M1 owners as time goes on. Most manufacturers are probably waiting for 5nm+ to actually start minting devices on. The downsides of the process are pretty apparent, too: Apple is forced to bin a significant number of the chips that they do make, presumably saving them for lower-performance devices. Really, the most impressive thing is that MacOS even runs on ARM: the Darwin kernel is built on cruft and zombie code, so the fact that a new architecture actually works with it is something of a small miracle. Plus, what the M1 has in performance is entirely lacked in the I/O department: it has less I/O bandwidth than my 10 year old Thinkpad, which is disheartening, to say the least. Don't even make me drag AMD in here, the 4800u is both cheaper and faster than the M1 in almost every way, and comes on a well supported "legacy" chipset. And the future of Mac? It's not so certain these days. Hackers have found exploits in Apple's own Thunderbolt technology that allows attackers to dump memory at the drop of a hat, basically the holy grail of physical attacks. Apple's commitment to open source has basically fell through, too. After 4 years of promising to at least document APFS for developers, they've come up empty. More and more of the Darwin kernel is going closed source, while newer MacOS versions will bypass VPNs and route data through third party servers. iCloud's security is now worst-in-class, shadowing their slipping quality control. Apple fights the Right to Repair movement at every corner, serializing and obfuscating their hardware and software with the sole intention of dissuading small businesses from repairing their products. Apples future is dimmer than a 13 watt bulb TL:DR - Apple haters aren't silent, we're letting you enjoy things while they last =)

The scary part about the M1 is that it's apples first attempt. Imagine what an M2X will do. I think the age of X86 is dead.

[@syrupybrandy2788]

Don't blame x86, blame intel for doing nothing for the past 10 years.

[@mdogzino]

X86 is not dead, d is still doing some amazing stuff with the architecture

[@anthonycolombo5889]

No the age of x86 is not over for a while - it's wedded to way too much "legacy" software. But for certain M1 has further exposed the inefficiencies of CISC along with its decades of cruft and the RISC-like work arounds that can't save x86. This is just the beginning of SOCs, unified memory and optimized/dedicated cores, especially as more developers take advantage of Apple's TensorFlow (machine learning), etc.

[@THELOF1]

@@anthonycolombo5889 Yeah I agree it will take a while but the writing is on the wall. If apple's experiment with ARM turns to be a big seller I think it will force MS to put more resources into updating its own windows arm OS. OEM manufacturers will follow suit with hardware and then the software development community shortly thereafter. From the reviews and benchmarks I have seen from other channels it appears that the M1 is going to be a hit. You can now get a laptop that is ~$1k and has the power of laptops costing over twice as much and sips battery power.

[@THELOF1]

@@mdogzino Yeah AMD is doing great things with it. I love AMD, I just hope that they are working on alternatives to x86 though. They have managed to reduce energy usage in their latest chips while consuming less power than intel. But that pales in comparison to the energy draw of ARM architecture I'm just thinking of what a threadripper ARM chip could do..

[@johnnyjamesmusic]

Excellent comparison. I love that he took the full potential of the older mac mini vs the M1 model. Many of us would consider upgrading ram or incorporating an eGPU in lieu of jumping for the M1 just yet. One thing for music production that concerns me: It should be noted that the Logic Pro benchmark here only dealt with max track count. With a limit of 16gb of ram on the M1 there could be substantial performance loss when running large sample libraries like Hollywood Strings or Spitfire compared to the older Macs. I currently run the same 64gb setup in the video, specifically for handling these insane libraries. Also, an eGPU can significantly improve the performance of logic pro on the intel based macs (apparently mostly on Mojave). Again, track count alone is not representative of this performance increase. I would be curious as to see how a more 'real world' example of the M1 vs Intel Mac mini w/ eGpu compares in Logic Pro, where there are heavy use of power-hungry plug-ins, sample libraries, and virtual instruments all being midi triggered and automated in a 64 track session. A good test would be zooming in/out, record-arming different tracks, opening different plugin windows, and tweaking these plugins, all in real-time as this heavy session is playing back. This type of behavior can easily overload a powerful system, and is more true to life. So the question is how much the limited ram of the M1 and lack of eGpu support offsets its powerful cpu architecture in this scenario, compared to the above intel-mac w/ eGpu and much more ram. Regardless, there's no doubt the M1 is killer for the price/performance ratio. I think once Apple gets more ram in these bad boys, they'll be unstoppable.

[@haitruong7503]

I just bought an M1 macbook pro for my son. I got very impressed with the performance even over my decked out $3k Zenbook Duo that I use for the video and photo editing. But here is my concern... Apple is know to slow down older model to make to upgrade to newer one. It happens to iPhone, iPad and everything with Apple sticker.

[@JohnSeabourn]

It’s not a slowing down but the fact that they are increasing the SOC performance so quickly, they put more demands in the OS which is harder for older SoCs to keep up. You have ai, gpu effects, cpu background tasks, etc.

[@ragnevi]

Wouldn't you add more screens to the eGPU than the thunderbolts ports?

The M1 Mini only has Gigabit Ethernet (not 10GbE) as far as I can tell. A point against it for some use cases.

[@rsteve5307]

I agree, I thought it could be upgraded to 10 but I checked on Apple website again it is not the case.

[@Jhale716]

Thunderbolt to 10gb is the approach, with TB4 having 40gbs bandwidth it has the capacity. Should have been an option on the board, but hey, it is first generation. It’s a hassle with another cable and adapter, but it exists... www.qnap.com/en/product/qna-tb-10gbe
