Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

you know, spare lids to the Neos and take a broken screen and put it in the recycle thing and put the new one on.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

So, you know, I agree with Henry that it's still not quite the same, but I do think the Neo is actually making some progress in the direction of the Chromebook advantages here.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

That's straight from Apple.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

They're making a straight-up claim for what we're calling the medium core, just because it makes more sense.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

They're saying it's actually more efficient than the old efficiency core, which kind of leans towards maybe the M6 will use these cores instead of the old efficiency cores, but we'll see.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

It remains to be seen if they're even going to use the Chipotle architecture for the plain, no-suffix M6 architecture.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

But that's a bold claim.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

Don't worry about the medium cores not being as efficient as the efficiency cores.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

They're actually more efficient, claims Apple.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

Yeah, usually Apple doesn't talk about these things, like what standards does it use or whatever.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

PCIe 5, I think, is a standard from 2019 or something, so there are later standards that are still in progress, but

In case you're wondering if Apple is keeping up with the times, I'm not sure.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

Maybe the M4 and M3 also use PCIe 5, but you just so rarely hear Apple talk about this.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

And unless you find someone who's really dug into the chips, it doesn't come up, especially since it's not like there's any PCI slots or anything.

Accidental Tech Podcast
685: The Ability to Be Hotter

But yeah, PCIe 5 is in there.

Accidental Tech Podcast

This is from the Mac and I website, by the way.

It's not from the...

As I said, this is translated by Google, so forgive us Germans if this is not good.

Literally, I'm just using Google Translate to translate a web page.
