Everything Apple (the Mac heads thread)

Mine has the 2.3GHz i9, apparently the 2.4GHz is materially faster as it’s a better-binned piece of silicon and runs at lower voltages for a given turbo state than the 2.3.

That's interesting - I'd read almost the opposite of that but goodness knows where so probably just nonsense and not on somewhere like r/videoengineering

I think that's the thing - I see a lot of promise in the new M series chips but it ain't there yet and the current gen intel are still solid things (particularly with the 5600m).

So long as they don't drop support off a cliff for bootcamp for at least a few year it'll do me fine.

I've used beefy but aging desktops twinned with underpowered laptops for ages but traveling around to shoots means it's tough to do remote edits / preview stuff shot in 8k to clients on the fly. Main thing is I want to have (near to) desktop performance, mobile so I can use a single machine and not have to archive Resolve databases / duplicate projects etc.
