M4+ Chip Generation - Speculation Megathread [MERGED]

[MayaUser]

It should be..since m4 was the only one who didn’t from the m family. Now its time
Probably the studio display rumor can be true with support for tb5 will help ipads and Mba base customers

We went M1 -> M3 with no TB4 support so Apple could easily drag out TB5 implementation on M5.

Let’s hope not. The wider the inclusion, the sooner the adoption.

WHy are you repeating and quoting yourself a bit of narcissism ?
Gurman is not predicting benchmarks but devices
We also can say that based on existing A19 pro and M5 that M5 pro metal will be around 150k...but thats math not predictions
But if you really want to be a true leaker or a Messiah tell us from now what M6 will be in both cpu and gpu departments ( scores/ nr of cores/ frequencies/ cash)

Yeah while I think it’s funny my 1 min calculations turned out pretty much correct, I am merely pointing out how easy it is to make ”educated assumptions” by just using putting one and one together. And since that is the case, I dont see the point of these ”leakers” status at all. They should be fired and do something worthwhile instead.

Yes, but we already have TB5 into the M4pro/Max
Maybe besides M5, TB5 could be a good addition for the ipad pro users along side with the "so called" Studio Display
and support for native DisplayPort 2.1 output over USB‑C

And M1 Pro/Max to M3 Pro/Max all had TB4 yet Apple was fine keeping TB3 on the base models (and single external display support). Maybe they’ll have a change of heart and move to TB5 earlier on the base models but I’m not hopeful based on their previous behaviour.

It indeed would be nice.

I think that since the TB5 standard is inflexible in its mandatory 80 Gbps bi-directional bandwidth as standard, supporting two minimum and three optional monitors per channel, I think that the chance of Apple incorporating all that graphics power in its base M5 chip is minimal.
At best the base will most likely get one monitor per channel and USB4 V2 80Gbps data bandwidth.
Just because the silicon is on the SoC for everything except more monitor support.
And only the Pro and higher will be SoIC.

ST 4600 MT 24000 GPU 94000
6P + 6E + 12GPU
See, that's easy.
Now to stay a prophet after the first test, that's the difficult part. 😉
