The PowerPC 970 ("G5") was the first 64-bit Mac processor. The PowerPC 970MP was the first dual-core Mac processor and the first to be found in a quad-core configuration. It was also the first Mac processor with partitioning and virtualization capabilities. Apple only used three variants of the G5, and soon moved entirely onto Intel architecture.
Geekbench began as a benchmark for Mac OS X and Windows, [3] and is now a cross-platform benchmark that supports macOS, Windows, Linux, Android and iOS. [4] In version 4, Geekbench started measuring GPU performance in areas such as image processing and computer vision. [5] In version 5, Geekbench dropped support for IA-32. [6]
These tables provide a comparison of operating systems, of computer devices, as listing general and technical information for a number of widely used and currently available PC or handheld (including smartphone and tablet computer) operating systems.
This is a list of all major types of Mac computers produced by Apple Inc. in order of introduction date. Macintosh Performa models were often physically identical to other models, in which case they are omitted in favor of the identical twin.
The 3DMark measurement unit is intended to give a normalized means for comparing different PC hardware configurations (mostly graphics processing units and central processing units), which proponents such as gamers and overclocking enthusiasts assert is indicative of end-user performance capabilities.
Dhrystone may represent a result more meaningfully than MIPS (million instructions per second) because instruction count comparisons between different instruction sets (e.g. RISC vs. CISC) can confound simple comparisons. For example, the same high-level task may require many more instructions on a RISC machine, but might execute faster than a ...
The M4 Pro features an up to 14-core CPU, with 10 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores, along with up to a 20-core GPU that Apple claims is twice as powerful as that in the M4 when used in the corresponding MacBook Pro. The M4 Pro is available with up to 64GB unified memory (Mac Mini) with a theoretical maximum bandwidth of 273GB/sec. [11]
Apple M3 is a series of ARM-based system on a chip (SoC) designed by Apple Inc., part of the Apple silicon series, as a central processing unit (CPU) and graphics processing unit (GPU) for its Mac desktops and notebooks.
