I don’t get the point about the price/performance ratio being better. Mac Studio are really expensive compared to a powerful PC

Running macOS on Apple Silicon is very fast compared to running it Intel. This is due to the RISC architecture and tight integration of the components in the SoC. To run it as fast on Intel would cost more than the price of a Mac Studio.

  • Can you point to any source supporting that point? All the benchmarks I’ve seen say the opposite, a Mac Studio wins on power consumption but is way more expensive compared to PC parts
