The TDP of the APU is specified at 35 Watt to make it suitable for smaller laptops than the 5900HX (35 - 52W, default 45W).Īpple M1 Pro 8-Core ► remove from comparison Furthermore, 16 MB of Level 3 cache can be found on the chip. The dual channel memory controller supports DDR4-3200 and energy efficient LPDDR4-4266 RAM. In addition to the eight CPU cores, the APU also integrates a Radeon RX Vega 8 iGPU with 8 CUs at up to 2100 MHz. For desktop processors AMD claims 19 percent on average and in applications reviews showed around 12% gains at the same clock speed. The new Zen 3 microarchitecture offers a significantly higher IPC (instructions per clock) compared to Zen 2. Compared to the 5900HX (up to 54 W), the 5900HS is configured with a TDP of 35 W. The chip is manufactured on the modern 7 nm TSMC process. They are clocked at 3 GHz (guaranteed base clock) to 4.6 GHz (Turbo) and support SMT / Hyperthreading (16 threads). The R9 5900HS integrates all eight cores based on the Zen 3 microarchitecture. The AMD Ryzen 9 5900HS is a processor for big (gaming) laptops based on the Cezanne generation. The peak power consumption of the chip was advertised around 30W for CPU intensive tasks.ĪMD Ryzen 9 5900HS ► remove from comparison The M1 Pro is manufactured in 5 nm at TSMC and integrates 57 billion transistors. The biggest difference to the M1 Pro is the bigger integrated GPU with 24 or 32 cores (up from 16).įurthermore, the SoC integrates a fast 16 core neural engine, a secure enclave (e.g., for encryption), a unified memory architecture, Thunderbolt 4 controller, an ISP, and media de- and encoders (including two ProRes engines). This is the main difference to the M1 Pro and the CPU performance is quite similar. The unified memory (32 or 64 GB LPDDR5-6400) next to the chip is connected by a 512 bit memory controller (200 GB/s bandwidth) and can be used by the GPU and CPU. The efficiency cores (E cluster) clock with 600 - 2064 MHz, the performance cores (P cluster) with 600 - 3228 MHz. CPU and GPU can both use the 48 MB SLC (System Level Cache). The four efficiency cores (codename Icestorm) are a lot smaller and offer only 128 KB instruction cache, 64 KB data cache, and 4 MB shared cache. The big cores (codename Firestorm) offer 192 KB instruction cache, 128 KB data cache, and 24 MB shared L2 cache (up from 12 MB in the M1). There is no Turbo Boost for single cores or short burst periods. The cores are similar to the cores in the Apple M1. It offers all 10 cores available in the chip divided in eight performance cores (P-cores with 600 - 3220 MHz) and two power-efficiency cores (E-cores with 600 - 2064 MHz). The Apple M1 Max is a System on a Chip (SoC) from Apple that is found in the late 2021 MacBook Pro 14 and 16-inch models.
