Mac shipments grow 10%, as all major PC brands see downturns - LemmyWorld

It's not something is recommend if you are a big gamer. Windows is still king there. Linux is making a ton of progress but if you want a gaming machine do windows.

That said Macs with the new silicon and unified memory absolutely crush in a ton of areas. I run an AI job that takes 45s-120s on my Mac air m1 and 5m in my Nvidia gfx card and 10m-12m on my Ryzen cpu.

What ai stuff are you running on apple silicon where you’re seeing that much improvement? I’ve always been windows/linux but just recently switched over to a m2 MacBook Pro because I’m doing a lot of travel this year. Lugging around my 5900hx/rtx3070 just became too much of a pain in the ass with like 3 working hours of battery life. I was able to transfer most of my development/design workflow over (and the one I couldn’t works fine in W11 parallels) but I thought most of my AI stuff would just have to live on my desktop rig
