Apple M2 Pro with more CPU cores and production in 3 nm ?
Posted by Stefan on 2022-06-28
After Apple surprisingly presented the normal Apple M2 processor as the first successor to the Apple M1 already in June 2022, the Apple M2 Pro and the Apple M2 Max may follow in autumn. The difference in performance compared to the basic version could be even greater this time and range from 25 to 40 percent.
In this article we describe how Apple could realize this and why the price should also go up.

Apple M2 vs Apple M1 - What are the differences?
Posted by Stefan on 2022-06-09
During WWDC 2022 on June 6th, 2022 Apple surprisingly presented its new Apple M2 processor. This will initially be installed in a completely revised Apple MacBook Air with 13.6 inches, a even thinner form factor and new colors. Apple also updated the already known (old) Apple MacBook Pro 13.3 with touch bar.
Many leakers had counted on Apple not presenting its new second-generation M processor until the fall. But things turned out differently. And there is very likely a reason for that: the improvements in the Apple M2 are limited compared to the predecessor.
Many leakers had counted on Apple not presenting its new second-generation M processor until the fall. But things turned out differently. And there is very likely a reason for that: the improvements in the Apple M2 are limited compared to the predecessor.
Description of the processor
The Apple M1 Pro (with 10 CPU cores and 14 GPU cores) is an enlarged version of the regular Apple M1 processor with more CPU and GPU cores for even more computing power. Apple introduced the Apple M1 Pro and Apple M1 Max processors for the professional MacBook series. Apple also uses the processors in the more professional mac mini and mac Studio series.The Apple M1 Pro (with 10 CPU cores and 14 GPU cores) has a total of 10 CPU cores, which are made up of 8 large P-cores (Apple Firestorm) and two smaller E-cores (Apple Icestorm). As with its other A and M processors, Apple also uses a hybrid core design for the CPU cores. The larger P-cores provide the largest share of the overall performance, with the E-cores being considered very economical and used for background tasks. But they can also be used together with the P-cores.
The clock frequency of the M1 Pro is very low at 0.6 GHz and is typical for modern ARM processors. The Apple M1 Pro can dynamically increase the clock frequency of the P-cores up to 3.2 GHz, while the E-cores can operate at a maximum of 2.06 GHz.
In addition to the normal CPU cores, the Apple M1 Pro (with 10 CPU cores and 14 GPU cores) has the Apple Neural Engine, which has an AI computing power of 11 TOPS and greatly accelerates calculations in image and video processing can.
The integrated graphics of the Apple M1 Pro (with 10 CPU cores and 14 GPU cores) has 224 execution units and almost 1800 shaders. The FP32 computing power of the graphics is at a very good level at 4.58 TFLOPS and is currently only beaten by the larger expansion levels from Apple itself when it comes to iGPUs. Theoretically, the graphics would be fast enough for some computer games, but game support on Apples macOS operating system is still very limited.
