We’ll be posting live commentary starting 30 minutes before the event begins on Monday, October 30th.

Come join us on Monday to discuss any last minute predictions and see if the Mac focused event is indeed “scary”.

Lets see if they can improve power efficiency on the M3 Macbooks

[–] joneskind 4 points 1 year ago

Incoming M3 should be very interesting, especially on the GPU side with RT cores (a game changer for 3D compute)

But I’m not sure we’ll get to see them in that keynote. At least not the more powerful ones. Apple just introduced M2 Ultra 4 months ago, and M2 Pro/Max are less than a year old.

« Scary fast » is a bold affirmation, especially against some much more powerful RTX GPUs, and more powerful multi core CPUs.

I kind of expect to see an M2 Extreme and a dedicated Graphic card for the tower Mac Pro beside a new iMac.

I might totally be wrong so don’t put too much faith in my assumption though.

Anyway, exciting times!
