Apple M1 chip for breakthrough performance
The Apple M1 system on a chip (SoC) integrates the CPU, GPU, Neural Engine, I/O, and more on a single chip
8-core CPU is up to 3.5 times faster for performance that blazes through everyday tasks like exporting a video for the web, as well as high performance workflows like editing RAW images
With up to an 8-core GPU, graphics performance is up to five times faster, making graphics-intensive activities like gaming and video editing super smooth—so for the first time, you can edit and play back 4K ProRes video in full quality without dropping a frame
16-core Neural Engine and machine learning accelerators deliver up to nine times faster ML performance—so apps like Final Cut Pro, which uses ML-based features like Smart Conform to intelligently frame a clip, finish tasks much faster
SSD storage speeds are up to two times faster so things like previewing massive, high-res images are super quick
M1 features 8GB of unified, high-bandwidth, low-latency memory that can be accessed by the CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine
