How much better is Apple's M3 than the M2?

Lots of interesting detail here (link below).

My dream machine is the MacBook Air (only Mac without a fan, essential for voice work). So an M3 15" MacBook Air? Fingers crossed that's in the works.

One thing I will say on the #MacBook #M3 discourse: upgrading from 8 to 16 GiB RAM cost $200 in 2015, and from 16 to 32 cost $400 then. It costs the same today, eight years later.

Hopefully, we’re at the tail end of this pricing.

Building the rustc compiler:

#M1 Max: 3m32s
#M3 Max: 2m17s

M1 has 8+2 cores, M3 has 12+4. Not a scientific benchmark, I just ran these once.

With reviewers (that I follow on YouTube / social media) being provided with M3 and M3 Max based systems it seems Apple doesn’t want them showing how lacking the upgrade for M3 Pro is compared to M2 Pro

Why #Apple started #M3 switch with #iMac and #MacBookPro:

"There is only a finite amount of 3-nanometer processors available, with much of the supply going toward the iPhone. So Apple started with two of its lower-volume machines."

From @markgurman PowerOn newsletter. Makes sense to me.

Ein kleines Update zu meinem Artikel von Anfang der Woche: Benchmarks sind da!
Der Apple M3 Max ist im Geekbench auf dem Niveau des M2 Ultra und das bei halben Verbrauch!
Im Multi-Core liegt er sogar vor einem i9-13900K & laesst ebenso den neuen Snapdragon X Elite weit hinter sich.

Das sind beeindruckende Zahlen, auch bzgl der Effizienz.
