At the WWDC event today apple, released in November 2020; announced the M2 chipset, the top model of the M1, the first custom-designed ARM-based computer chip.
The M2 is the new MacBook Air and the new 13-inch of MacBook Pro in your heart is located. Also, the new chip is built on the second generation 5nm process and its 8-core CPU promises 18% better performance compared to the M1.
Apple’s performance cores faster while it is due to the fact that it is and is paired with a larger cache; efficiency coreshigher performance “significantly good for his gains,” he says.
On the Samsung Galaxy Book 2 360 Compared to Intel Core i7-1255U; CPU in M2 “almost twice as much performance at same power level” and at the same time using only a quarter of the power; It promises the highest performance of the Intel chip.
12 cores on MSI Prestige 14Evo Compared to Intel Core i7-1260P; The M2 uses only a quarter of the power, “providing around 90% of peak performance”.
GPU cores look the same, but slightly more efficient than the M1s; because 10 core M2 is 8 core M1 at same power draw 25% better performance than your GPU provides. With the added power consumption, this performance delta to 35% it turns out. Compared to the graphics on the Samsung Galaxy Book 2 360 Apple; that this GPU is 2.3 times faster at the same power level and using one fifth of the power; says it matches its peak performance.
16 core neural engine, 40% faster than M1s; can process up to 15.8 trillion operations per second and also now 100 GB/s; You get 50% more memory bandwidth. Speaking of memory, the M2 is up to 24GB LPDDR5 RAM supports.
The chipset has more than 20 billion transistors; (this is 25% more than the M1), 6K external displays plus ProRes encode and decode; 8K H.264 and HEVC supports video.
