Second.. M1 MPB IS GREAT.
BUT....
problem starts when you apply more nodes, NR, grain.... then GPU just fall apart and cannot handle it.
My plan was to wait for new iMacs (PRO or not) with those M chips.. but I have doubts regarding GPU power.
Thanks, this is why there's a need for analysis that talks about more than playback and export.
I think that Apple's decision to go 100% with ARM means that it knows how to make ARM computers that have strong GPU performance. Not being an Apple hardware engineer, I have no idea how they're going to do it, but I think that we're going to see that in the higher-end Macs that are coming. If you think about Apple's last few June events, and what it has been doing in the last few years, it isn't likely that it's going to suddenly cede graphics performance to its competitors.
