How do you see New Apple Silicon Chips

#1 Post by asifnaz »

The launch of the M1 Pro and M1 Max shows how far Apple has come in developing silicon on its own .Intel is still sticking with old x86 architecture which has no future IMHO .

I think you need to open the back of the computer to see the chips. :mrgreen:

Anyway, I doubt that Linux on M1 will ever get a working GFX driver - Apple is definitely not interested in supporting Linux.

The HW accelerator for neural networks will probably never gain support on Linux -> there are both technical and "political" reasons.

If Apple actually makes it possible to open the things--not always a certainty.
