    Again: x86 is RISC inside. It executes microops, not instructions. As a first step, all CPU-s (x86 and ARM too) compiles the instructions to some internal representation (called microops @ x86). There is no (or not too big) difference from this point. There are two REAL difference: the compilation to microops and insctuction fetching. The first takes some space from the chip and eats up some power, more from CISC, less from RISC. Although RISC has some advantage, neither of these are important factors. On the other hand, instruction fetching is another thing. RISC CPU-s have fixed sized instructions, while x86 use prefix code, i.e. the instructions has a varying size and you can tell the size only when you read it (at least the first some bytes). Therefore, fetching 8 instructions at the same time is not an issue for an Apple M1, while fetching more than 4 is impossible for an x86, and even 4 is very hard. THIS IS THE POINT HERE: RISC has now some advantage, since it has turned out that knowing where an instruction ends is more important than we thought. Not from the small instruction set. Read further only if you want to know why: Loading 8 instruction at a time is important in the case of a branch miss, when the predictor fails to predict the right branch to continue in an if-then-else situation. In this case, the reordering buffer (see later) is dropped, and you need to fill it again asap (note that a CISC instruction produces typically more microops, which helps a bit). The bigger your buffer, the longer it takes to fill it. If it is too big, you will rarely fill it, and there is no point to make the buffer that big. Reordering buffer (ROB) is important, since this is used to help the CPU to do out-of-order execution: since clock frequency cannot be increased nowadays, you need to execute more at each cycle, but some instructions may need some data not available yet, so CPUs execute some later instruction from the ROB, if they can. Apple was able to produce an extremely huge ROB, far huger than any other CPU out there, and this seems to be worth: their instruction per cycle skyrocketed and that's why they have this strong processor. Of course, the whole architecture (e.g. ALUs, caches, extreme fast DRAM) is different, since it's built to support this advanced out-of-order execution.

    wow. I think your info is a bit out of date. All so-called CISC processors went to a RISC-style microcode a long time ago. The whole CISC versus RISC thing is not relevant anymore. Also, I hope this works out as Intel has been not innovating for many years, which is the real reason the M1 is doing so well. It is 5nm and that accounts for most of its performance and power usage numbers that you mistakenly attribute to CISC vs RISC.

    From my understanding you're close, but not quite right. RISC was introduced to Pentium chips in the nineties on the back end (at the core), but maintains CISC at the front end. Literally, all instructions in x86 run through a translation layer from CISC to RISC. Which happened to not be such a big deal for a long time because most instructions end up being RISC compliant anyway. Still it's enough of an issue that we are now nearing the performance threshold (particularly on single core) of x86_64. Going back several years now, there has almost always been 1+ dark cores because the thermal constraints are just too high. With a purely RiSC chip, such as arm, the thermal constraints aren't nearly as limiting since power consumption is a fraction of RISC+CISC.

    @@jbjefe Again, you are a bit off the mark. A CISC instruction doesn't mean it is variable length. It means the instruction contains both instructions to load/store and to do computation. There are CISC architectures that are fixed width and have _fewer_ instructions than some RISC instruction sets. In short, your point about RISC/CISC is simply not the way things work and not at all an reason for processor performance difference. It's true that Intel chips are bloated with SSE instruction handling. And it's true they have to do translation into microcode, but the translation is not a bottleneck to performance, not even close. And finally, no ARM processor for the desktop or server environment can outperform the fastest AMD or Intel chips. I want them to succeed, but they are simply not there yet.

    In my opinion the discussion about the impressive performance and power efficiency of the M1 chip is much too focused on the RISC vs CISC topic. Modern processors decode the instruction stream into internal operations and the instruction set actually does not matter that much. The magic happens in the far larger back-end of the processor. I think Apple could actually build an x86 processor based on the M1 internal architecture and beat Intel and AMD if they really wanted.

If a xeon cpu scores 5000 points, it will score 10,000 pointd if you add a GPU that accelerates execution of video and processing So M1 without GPU acceleration ( maybe there s a FGPA inside M1) will be 50% less powerful What people said apple wouldnt make its a cpu that matches x86 but apple made a soc not a cpu. The only pure ARM cpu that gets performance is A64FX. If you have a car with turbocharger and is faster than you car ,could you say that the engines is better than yours? A x86 processor with the same gpu acceleration used in M1 would be faster than M1. If amd or intel hasnt done yet is because its more expensive to build that kind of chip,gpu on die makes it complex and expensive to make .apple has underpriced this mac to make win the price/ performance category A new architecture is always more expensive.

    I'd like the inference chip to be integrated into Plex so it can automatically detect, and adjust to sports that over-run their time slot so i dont get an hour of the superbowl, instead of The Simpsons, Family Guy, Bob's Burger ect. Long, but possibly important side note, my Apple M1 Mac Mini is not as efficient as my AMD 4750u Thinkpad L15. So far, i've only tested the use case i bought the Mac Mini for, mainly Plex live TV recording, and then transcoding those h264 files, into h265. The Mac Mini is not only slower at transcoding at the same setting, but it also users more power from the wall (33wh VS 26wh). This is actually of great concern to me,. This 5nm RISC processor, is loosing(in my use case) to a 7nm CISC processor while also using more power than the 7nm CISC. According to TSMC, an AMD 4750u, ported over to 5nm, should be roughly 50% more efficient than the original 7nm processor(paraphrased). Considering that the M1 is both a far more efficient RISC, and a fully integrated design of RAM and SSD offering even better efficiencies, AND has a 50% efficiency head start just because of the 5nm node, This probably means the M1 just doesn't have enough cores, and to get this performance, they've pushed the silicon well past the point of diminishing returns. Had this processor been 12+4, at half the frequency, it would probably use less energy than the current mac mini, while being likely more than twice as powerful. This also might be a weird use case where CISC is better suited at the task than RISC(or ARM specifically)

    Interesting video. The apple M1 11 TFLOP speed claim is BS. Even if the M1 runs at full speed without thermal throttling, and with zero bus contention from any other M1 device, it means to get the 11 TFLOP speed then the ANE would have to be doing almost 215 operations per tick per core. At single bit resolution, the ANE would have a bus bandwidth of around 1350 Gigabytes per second, when the M1 ram is rated at 66 Gigabytes per second. Even with the highest speed cache, apples claims at very best can be nothing more than a theoretical maximum within the ANE, when in reality the ANE is probably massively slower in real applications.

    Most people are looking at these first Apple Silicon Macs wrong - these aren't Apple's powerhouse machines: they're simply the annual spec bump of the lowest end Apple computers with DCI-P3 displays, Wifi 6, and the new Apple Silicon M1 SoC. They have the same limitations as the machines they replace - 16 GB RAM and two Thunderbolt ports. These are the machines you give to a student or teacher or a lawyer or an accountant or a work-at-home information worker - folks who need a decently performing machine with decent build quality who don't want to lug around a huge powerhouse machine (or pay for one for that matter). They're still marketed at the same market segment, though they now have a vastly expanded compute power envelope. The real powerhouses will probably come next year with the M1x (or whatever). Apple has yet to decide on an external memory interconnect and multichannel PCIe scheme, if they decide to move in that direction. Other CPU and GPU vendors and OEM computer makers take notice - your businesses are now on limited life support. These new Apple Silicon models can compete speed-wise up through the mid-high tier of computer purchases, and if as I expect Apple sells a ton of these many will be to your bread and butter customers. In fact, I suspect that Apple - once they recover their R&D costs - will be pushing the prices of these machines lower while still maintaining their margins - while competing computer makers will still have to pay Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, and nVidea for their expensive processors, whereas Apple's cost goes down the more they manufacture. Competing computer makers may soon be squeezed by Apple Silicon price/performance on one side and high component prices on the other. Expect them to be demanding lower processor prices from the above manufacturers so they can more readily compete, and processor manufacturers may have to comply because if OEM computer manufacturers go under or stop making competing models, the processor makers will see a diminishing customer base. I believe the biggest costs for a chip fab are startup costs - no matter what processor vendors would like you to believe. Design and fab startup are _expensive_ - but once you start getting decent yields, the additional costs are silicon wafers and QA. The more of these units Apple can move, the lower the per unit cost and the better the profits. So ... who should buy these M1 Macs? If you're in the target demographic - the student, teacher, lawyer, accountant, or work-at-home information worker - this is the Mac for you. If you're a heavy computer user like a creative and don't simply want a light and cheap computer with some additional video and sound editing capability for use on the go - I'd wait for the M1x (or whatever) next year. You'll probably kick yourself next year when the machines targeted at _you_ finally appear.

    As a side note another advantage of risk is that because of the simpler instruction set it leaves more space for internal registers and so doesn’t have to fetch so many variables from ram which slows things down. Also allows for more system on chip customisations which is suppose is what the M1 is an example of. Do as much as possible in a single chip and you don’t need to rely so much on external logic board etc. I’m hoping to see more servers adopt Arm based architectures too as it will greatly reduce power consumption, especially with integrated GPU’s and Neural network features. Also praying ARM doesn’t get sold to NVIDIA, it’s about the only innovative tech England still owns and invented. We need Cambridge to keep innovating so we can’t let them get starved out!

    "why is it so disruptive?" It's not. It's a modern ARM-SoC like the Snapdragon lineup, with the performance advantage you would expect looking at the higher power consumption. The disruptive part is that Apple's Desktop OS - including a wide range of applications - runs on such an ARM-SoC now, and Microsoft's cannot.

    I think biggest improvement Apple made to their ARM-SoC compared to others is the unified memory. I don't know about other SOC's that give full RAM access to the GPU? I honestly don't think that Apple's GPU is really more powerful than Adreno or Vega, the main difference is the memory bottlenecks are removed/reduced. I also suspect the same applies to the neural engine, but I don't know.

I think that (Optane ) memory that INTEL spent a good chunk of time perfecting. I think it will play an enormous role in a neural processor. And when it all settled down, A (worthy) processor will emerge.

Also: intel used to have own ARM implemementation (StrongARM).

    Okay, let me share my two cents on this as a fellow UNIX/Linux user. From what I have seen right now the OS is way worse than a KDE Plasma with Latte Dock - and I did the ultimate test here by asking my Mrs. which 'Mac' she would buy and she likes my Linux GUI more, saying that the actual Mac OS looks too complicated . Now let's talk hardware for a bit. 4 'performance cores' and 4 'efficiency cores' are either the same bollocks that I have in my $200 budget smartphone from the 'evil' Chinese company called Huawei or just this hyperthreading thing where I have 4 actually fully featured cores whilst there is 4 more cores without an FPU, so I won't really recommend to run anything on these... So what this really comes down to is a $65 Raspberry Pi 4B 8GB in a MacBook 'Pro' case with an ugly GUI for over twice the price of an Lenovo ThinkPad E595 with 32GB RAM and two SSDs, one of which being an NVMe one. I don't know about you guys but in Germany we call this full on FRAUD. Yes my friends, full on FRAUD, that's what it is! So my suggestion to solve this issue: Either keep your 'old' X86 Mac or get yourself the cheapest Lenovo Laptop there is, get some cool stickers to put on the back and install Linux. And if you want an actually very stylish beyond Apple look and feel I would suggest Hefftor Linux Plasma which just happened to have released a new version which you can download under www.hefftorlinux.net .

    I'd like the inference chip to be integrated into Plex so it can automatically detect, and adjust to sports that over-run their time slot so i dont get an hour of the superbowl, instead of The Simpsons, Family Guy, Bob's Burger ect. Long, but possibly important side note, my Apple M1 Mac Mini is not as efficient as my AMD 4750u Thinkpad L15. So far, i've only tested the use case i bought the Mac Mini for, mainly Plex live TV recording, and then transcoding those h264 files, into h265. The Mac Mini is not only slower at transcoding at the same setting, but it also users more power from the wall (33wh VS 26wh). This is actually of great concern to me,. This 5nm RISC processor, is loosing(in my use case) to a 7nm CISC processor while also using more power than the 7nm CISC. According to TSMC, an AMD 4750u, ported over to 5nm, should be roughly 50% more efficient than the original 7nm processor(paraphrased). Considering that the M1 is both a far more efficient RISC, and a fully integrated design of RAM and SSD offering even better efficiencies, AND has a 50% efficiency head start just because of the 5nm node, This probably means the M1 just doesn't have enough cores, and to get this performance, they've pushed the silicon well past the point of diminishing returns. Had this processor been 12+4, at half the frequency, it would probably use less energy than the current mac mini, while being likely more than twice as powerful. This also might be a weird use case where CISC is better suited at the task than RISC(or ARM specifically)
