You'd be surprised how similar the production costs are probably. You're not really paying for materials nowadays, more machine time and tooling, which doesn't scale linearly.
@@DJDiarrhea I generally get the eeks from modern manufacturing, they can pump out a few million DVD players for not much, yet a new remote for my car costs twice as much and contains a mere fraction of the tech and materials in the DVD player.
The Apple SoC doesn't seem to really natively use PCI-express in the traditional sense, you can see this from the IO registry. They have a hardware abstraction layer that sits on top of the native IO complex for all of the 'PCI-e' devices that are connected, but components that don't require this connect directly. If you look at wireless LAN for example, the Broadcom chip they're using attaches via a PCIe interface, so they expose a PCI-express HAL layer, but for other components such as the neural engine, video encode/decode engines and even the GPU itself, there is no such 'PCIe' like node in the tree. This makes sense because of the unified memory architecture, components which don't require this layer shouldn't need to emulate a PCIe bus, it's extra silicon which would be a waste of resources and introduce latency and headaches if they have to sit on top of a contended PCIe bus. So trying to understand the total memory throughput of the M1 chip seems like a difficult thing to do if you use PCI-express lanes as the stick to measure it with, you're only really measuring a layer which is relevant only for those components which require PCIe, which honestly beyond the ethernet controllers, thunderbolt ports and wifi - is nothing.
Now it's time for them to release a 14+ inch macbook with I/O similarly rich to the M1 Mini w/Aquantia 10GbE... a laptop with 10GbE port, 2xUSB3-A, 2xUSB4-C, and maybe even the HDMI/DP out as well and SD card reader and you might end up with the a truly great solution for everyone being held back by small size, built-in I/O options etc. I wonder if they release the iMac with a bumped up spec as well, with these similar I/O options and full 8c/8c+16GB SoC solution...
Iiinteresting, finally some answers on what M1 is doing differently with memory/storage. So it's memory mapping the whole SSD directly, kind of like the PS5 idea which I speculated it may have shared.
LOL! At 1:04 "The only way to find out about them, is to have your performance drop, while in the middle of doing something," and TH-cam decides to stop playing buffer on me (spinning wheel)! I thought it was a joke they were doing at first! That would have been great!
I have the take a break feature on TH-cam turned on for every 15 minutes. Sometimes the video will pause and wait a sec before showing take a break. I get this all the time. It looks like someone is about to make a joke, or made a punchline and are letting the crickets chirp. Happens especially when I watch meme videos.
Imagine a world where Apple decided it wants to compete in the discrete GPU world and that it cared about AAA eye-candy games. Actually nix that idea, Apple is already too powerful.
There’s several AA+ / AAA games on Arcade now. Especially Fantasian, Oceanhorn 2, World of Demons, and even Hot Lava or Little Orpheus. If and when they push out a DGPU variant, it’s going to be phenomenal.
@@CheapBastard1988 The console you’re hypothetically discussing is literally the iPads, iPhones, and Apple TV’s everywhere. Works with Xbox, PS5, and MFI Bluetooth controllers. I’d say they’re competing with consoles, but the new iPad is now powered with the M1 and competes with low-end PCs for gaming.
For the Price the M1 Mac mini is a great video editing device (on FCPX or DaVinici). Just get a CalDigit Essential thunderbolt hub and a compatible display. No 10GbE adapter needed now. Just hook it up to a network with a NAS and you are off to the races.
M1 Mac Mini is a pretty good machine if you really want macOS on the desktop at an affordable price assuming you provide your own keyboard, mouse, and display. One of the best releases of Mac Mini in a very long time.
I imagine the reason why his script caused load on the CPU is because during his loop, once the process of writing to the drive started, most of the work is being done by the drive and the CPU is mostly waiting for the drive to do its thing. But if it cant connect to the drive, it just fails immediately and tries again immediately causing the CPU to constantly continue trying as fast as it possibly can. But thats just a theory.... A CODER THEORY!!
Good talk! I tell that to my friends everyday. Saving is good investing is much better, I used to think saving money would save me but NO, saving is just keeping it to spend later.

“the price of our 40oz water bottle is the same as the 21oz. That’s a good deal”. No Linus. Thats called a scam
You'd be surprised how similar the production costs are probably. You're not really paying for materials nowadays, more machine time and tooling, which doesn't scale linearly.
@@DJDiarrhea I generally get the eeks from modern manufacturing, they can pump out a few million DVD players for not much, yet a new remote for my car costs twice as much and contains a mere fraction of the tech and materials in the DVD player.
The Apple SoC doesn't seem to really natively use PCI-express in the traditional sense, you can see this from the IO registry. They have a hardware abstraction layer that sits on top of the native IO complex for all of the 'PCI-e' devices that are connected, but components that don't require this connect directly. If you look at wireless LAN for example, the Broadcom chip they're using attaches via a PCIe interface, so they expose a PCI-express HAL layer, but for other components such as the neural engine, video encode/decode engines and even the GPU itself, there is no such 'PCIe' like node in the tree. This makes sense because of the unified memory architecture, components which don't require this layer shouldn't need to emulate a PCIe bus, it's extra silicon which would be a waste of resources and introduce latency and headaches if they have to sit on top of a contended PCIe bus. So trying to understand the total memory throughput of the M1 chip seems like a difficult thing to do if you use PCI-express lanes as the stick to measure it with, you're only really measuring a layer which is relevant only for those components which require PCIe, which honestly beyond the ethernet controllers, thunderbolt ports and wifi - is nothing.
Now it's time for them to release a 14+ inch macbook with I/O similarly rich to the M1 Mini w/Aquantia 10GbE... a laptop with 10GbE port, 2xUSB3-A, 2xUSB4-C, and maybe even the HDMI/DP out as well and SD card reader and you might end up with the a truly great solution for everyone being held back by small size, built-in I/O options etc. I wonder if they release the iMac with a bumped up spec as well, with these similar I/O options and full 8c/8c+16GB SoC solution...
so this is the feel like when get early LTT videos....
feels good
@Techna Dise you did an error
I try so hard and got so far, but in the end it doesn't really matter hahahaha when I saw the title, this got into my brain lol
@Techna Dise 2 response on the same comment, what are you doing ?
@Techna Dise Ah come on, just stop

Iiinteresting, finally some answers on what M1 is doing differently with memory/storage. So it's memory mapping the whole SSD directly, kind of like the PS5 idea which I speculated it may have shared.
Yes, the integrated SoC design trades off flexibility (in terms of future upgrade options) in order to gain insane performance.
LOL, that subtle eyebrow after the What a deal! @3:46
linus : starts a Mac channel
linus : post Mac video on main channel
@LosFarmosCTL thanks for the clarification
LOL! At 1:04 "The only way to find out about them, is to have your performance drop, while in the middle of doing something," and TH-cam decides to stop playing buffer on me (spinning wheel)! I thought it was a joke they were doing at first! That would have been great!
I have the take a break feature on TH-cam turned on for every 15 minutes. Sometimes the video will pause and wait a sec before showing take a break. I get this all the time. It looks like someone is about to make a joke, or made a punchline and are letting the crickets chirp. Happens especially when I watch meme videos.
The shot where the camera spins with the Mac mini was incredible.
I thought my phone rotated 😂
Anthony made the program equivalent of trying to pedal as fast as you can without a chain on a bicycle.
Thanks a lot for going into that many details here, very helpful.
I like the slightly lower tone and slower pace Linus takes in this video. Much more relaxing to watch.
Breaking things is what you do young Sir. It completes you. Never change.
@Techna Dise stop, plz.
@Techna Dise Shut
The one video I was in time for.
He tried so hard....
And got so far...
In the end...
It doesn't even matter...
Now I can't get that music our of my brains
0:11 pi 3 owners know about this all too well
Super informative and showcases some of this really cool efficiency and innovation in existing I/O and storage hardware
Imagine a world where Apple decided it wants to compete in the discrete GPU world and that it cared about AAA eye-candy games. Actually nix that idea, Apple is already too powerful.
You gotta admit though. If they really put in the time, money and RnD, that GPU would be a beast.
@@TARS.. It's iGPU is _already_ a beast (it's just core-limited compared to the usual dGPUs).
There’s several AA+ / AAA games on Arcade now. Especially Fantasian, Oceanhorn 2, World of Demons, and even Hot Lava or Little Orpheus. If and when they push out a DGPU variant, it’s going to be phenomenal.
Then we'd have another console: Good for gaming but a restricted access P.O.S. otherwise.
@@CheapBastard1988 The console you’re hypothetically discussing is literally the iPads, iPhones, and Apple TV’s everywhere. Works with Xbox, PS5, and MFI Bluetooth controllers. I’d say they’re competing with consoles, but the new iPad is now powered with the M1 and competes with low-end PCs for gaming.
I missed videos like this one
Just drop it
For the Price the M1 Mac mini is a great video editing device (on FCPX or DaVinici). Just get a CalDigit Essential thunderbolt hub and a compatible display. No 10GbE adapter needed now. Just hook it up to a network with a NAS and you are off to the races.
Linus laugh is hilarious🤣🤣
I have never clicked so fast on a notification
Same lol
If you see my community tab's post (photo) then I promise you that you not stop your laughing🤣😅🤣......💖...,,..,,......

First time i'm early enough for a drop: no drop 🤷♂️
Does he drop randomly in videos?
@@bad_atgames Yeah
@@bad_atgames Yeah. Look up “Linus Drop Tips”
He does plonk down that mac pretty hard multiple times
This is far better mac content than the wretched mac channel you guys just started.
M1 Mac Mini is a pretty good machine if you really want macOS on the desktop at an affordable price assuming you provide your own keyboard, mouse, and display. One of the best releases of Mac Mini in a very long time.
hi lonus tech tipper wen i grow up ill wanted to be comuter man like you
I just lost a few brain cells
@Techna Dise no.
Good news, you can commute to the nearest mcdonald's and become a real life commuter man
I imagine the reason why his script caused load on the CPU is because during his loop, once the process of writing to the drive started, most of the work is being done by the drive and the CPU is mostly waiting for the drive to do its thing. But if it cant connect to the drive, it just fails immediately and tries again immediately causing the CPU to constantly continue trying as fast as it possibly can. But thats just a theory.... A CODER THEORY!!
Probably, and echoing to the console rapidly doesn't help, either - Although I don't think that alone would spike the CPU that hard. -AY
I don't know who needs to hear this but stop saving all your money. Invest some of it if you want financial freedom.
Invest in Bitcoin, gold, silver, buy stock, forex market. Anything! Just invest and save yourself.
Good talk! I tell that to my friends everyday. Saving is good investing is much better, I used to think saving money would save me but NO, saving is just keeping it to spend later.
What if you don't know how to trade any of these?
@@bitbcrypto...2118 I mean, I see your point. Some people have the money and are willing to invest but the problem is where to
My crypto mentor, Mr Smith McKenzie runs an investment platform. I paid $3000 just last week and today he paid me $8,000.
I was a pretty dedicated Pc user for very many years...Now I own an M1 MacBook Air. And I love it to bits. It's by far the snappiest and smoothest computer I've even owned. And all that performance with no fan noise is just surreal.
The M1 is the first pebble in the lanslide that is the 5 nm RISC revolution.
Me: trying to just get 5g variant device
Linus: 10G

You’re mixing up 5g mobile with 10gbps networking
Intel didn’t go away alone......
*They took the ports with them*
for once i came early for a video release
6:25 You may be surprised but caldigit may not be thunderbolt 3 device, take this into account when you measure performance. Don't take for granted that a dock has perfect compatibility
I loved that smoke effect. Took me by surprise. Looked so real. Love it. Magic 🪄
