U-Vratislav Holub Ngo-2020, i-Apple yasinikeza into entsha eyisisekelo ngendlela ye-Apple Silicon, okungukuthi ukufika kwama-chips ayo efuna ukufaka ngawo ama-processors avela ku-Intel kumakhompyutha ayo. Kusukela kulolu shintsho, wasithembisa ukukhula okuyisisekelo ekusebenzeni kanye nomnotho ophakeme. Futhi njengoba ethembisile, naye wasigcina. Namuhla, sesivele sinama-Mac amaningi ahlukene atholakalayo, futhi ngisho nesizukulwane sesibili se-chip yaso, ebizwa nge-M2, manje isibheke emakethe, ezoqale ibheke iMacBook Air eklanywe kabusha (2022) kanye ne-13 ″ MacBook Pro. (2022).
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
Cishe kuwo wonke ama-Mac, i-Apple isivele ishintshele esixazululweni sayo, ngaphandle kwe-Mac Pro yochwepheshe. Wonke amanye amadivaysi asevele ashintshele ku-Apple Silicon futhi awukwazi ngisho nokuwathenga ekucushweni okuhlukile. Okusho ukuthi, ngaphandle kweMac mini. Nakuba bekungenye yezokuqala ukuthola i-chip ye-M1 ekupheleni kuka-2020, i-Apple isathengisa ngokucushwa nge-Intel Core i5 processor ene-Intel UHD Graphics 630 ehlanganisiwe. Ukuthengiswa kwalesi modeli kuvula ingxoxo ethakazelisayo. Kungani i-Apple ishintshele kuma-chips okuphathelene wawo wonke amadivayisi, kodwa iyaqhubeka nokuthengisa le Mac mini ethile?
I-Apple Silicon ibibusa umnikelo we-Mac
Njengoba sesishilo ngenhla, akukho okunye ongakhetha kukho ohlwini lwamakhompiyutha we-Apple namuhla, ngaphandle kwamamodeli ane-Apple Silicon chips. Okuwukuphela kwento eshiwo ngenhla iMac Pro, okungenzeka ukuthi i-Apple ibingakakwazi ukuthuthukisa eyayo i-chipset enamandla ngokwanele ukuqeda lokhu kuncika kokugcina ku-Intel. Okunye okuthokozisayo ukuthi lolu shintsho lwenzeka ngokushesha kangakanani. Ngenkathi eminyakeni emibili edlule u-Apple wethule kuphela izinhloso zakhe nge-Apple Silicon, namuhla sekuyisikhathi eside kuyiqiniso. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, umdondoshiya we-Cupertino usibonisa into eyodwa - leli yikusasa futhi akusizi ukuqhubeka ukuthengisa noma ukuthenga amadivaysi ngamaprosesa amadala.
Lena yindlela i-Apple eyethule ngayo i-chip yokuqala ye-M1
Kungalezi zizathu abanye abangakuthola kuxakile ukuthi iMac mini endala ene-Intel processor isatholakala nanamuhla. Ngakho-ke i-Apple iyithengisa ngokukhethekile ekucushweni okune-CPU eyisithupha-core Intel Core i5 yesizukulwane sesi-8 enemvamisa engu-3,0 GHz (Turbo Boost kuya ku-4,1 GHz), 8 GB wememori yokusebenza kanye no-512 GB wesitoreji se-SSD. Ngokusekelwe kulokhu, kungaphethwa ngokuthi ngisho ne-Mac mini eyisisekelo ene-M1 chip ingangena kalula le modeli ephaketheni lakho, futhi izobiza kancane.
Kungani i-Mac mini isatholakala?
Manje ake sehlele ku-nitty gritty - empeleni lenzani le Mac mini kumenyu yama-apula? Ukumthengisa kowamanqamu kunengqondo, ngenxa yezizathu eziningi. Okungenzeka ukuthi i-Apple isanda kuyithengisa futhi ngenxa yendlu yokugcina impahla egcwele ngeke kube nengqondo ukuyikhansela. Kwanele nje ukukushiya kumenyu bese unikeza abantu abangaba nentshisekelo lokho abakufunayo. Nokho, abalimi bama-apula ngokuvamile bayavumelana ngesizathu esihluke kancane. Ukushintshela ekwakhiweni okusha akuyona into engaxazululwa ngobusuku obubodwa. Ngisho namakhompyutha ane-Apple Silicon anobubi obuthile. Isibonelo, azikwazi ukusingatha ukufakwa/ukwenziwa kwe-virtualization kwezinguqulo zakudala zesistimu yokusebenza ye-Windows, noma zingase zingaqondi izinhlelo ezithile.
Futhi lapha kulapho okulele khona isikhubekiso. Amaphrosesa anamuhla, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi avela ku-Intel noma e-AMD, asekelwe ekwakhiweni kwe-x86/x64 kusetshenziswa isethi yemiyalo eyinkimbinkimbi ye-CISC, kuyilapho i-Apple ithembele ekwakhiweni kwe-ARM, esebenzisa, ukuyibeka kalula, isethi yemiyalelo “encishisiwe” ebhalwe ukuthi RISC. Njengoba i-Intel ne-AMD CPUs ibusa umhlaba ngokusobala, kuyaqondakala ukuthi wonke ama-software nawo aguqulelwe kulokhu. Umdondoshiya weCupertino, ngakolunye uhlangothi, ungumdlali omncane, futhi ukuqinisekisa ukuthi uguquko olugcwele ngempela kuzothatha isikhathi, ngoba lokhu akunqunywanga ngokuqondile yi-Apple, kodwa ikakhulukazi ngabathuthukisi ngokwabo, okufanele basebenze kabusha / balungiselele izicelo.
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
Kulokhu, kunengqondo ukuthi imodeli ethile esebenza kuphrosesa ye-Intel isala kuhlu lwamakhompyutha we-Apple. Ngeshwa, asikwazi ngisho nokubala i-Mac Pro eshiwo kuyo, ngoba ihloselwe ochwepheshe kuphela, okubuye kubonakale ngentengo yayo. Lokhu kungafinyelela imiqhele ecishe ibe yizigidi eziyi-1,5 ekucushweni okuphezulu (kuqala ngaphansi kwezinkulungwane eziyi-165). Ngakho-ke uma abantu bedinga i-Mac engenayo inkinga encane yokusebenzisa iWindows, ukukhetha kucace kakhulu kubo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ama-Mac amasha ane-Apple Silicon awasekeli amakhadi ezithombe zangaphandle, okungaphinda kube inkinga enkulu kwabanye. Isibonelo, ezikhathini lapho sebevele bengabanikazi be-GPU yangaphandle futhi ngeke kube nengqondo ukuthi bachithe ngokungadingekile ku-Mac enamandla kakhulu bese kufanele balahle imishini yabo ngendlela enzima.
