Mac Neo: The dwarf with giant GPU muscles [macOS IOGPUFamily] (Was: The new MIMD Warp is the cherry on top)

Show all headers | View raw

Hi,

Interestingly you can half the AI Laptop
Budget now. The new Mac Neo is only $500 ,
half of my discount AI laptop. Here is

some measurement if this AI Laptop zoo,
including the Mac Neo dwarf (in milliseconds):

AI Laptop	example63
Ryzen	542.0
Neo	950.0
Yoga	1475.0
Think	2798.0

AI Laptop	example64
Ryzen	1141.0
Neo	2022.0
Yoga	2118.0
Think	7439.0

Since my test doesn't use much memory, it also
fits into into the Mac Neo dwarf 8 GB, and the
Mac Neo dwarf is extrem since the GPU can access

all of 8 GB, not only 50% and the memory is
integrated directly into the processor die,
it is still DRAM not yet HBM. The ARM instruction

set has been streamlined to better support
common GPU interfaces. The CPU acts as a pure
scheduler via native kernel extensions,

appending command buffers straight into memory
queues that the GPU's command processor
reads without a middleman.

Bye
