By the beginning of last month I had already suggested: Apple is keeping a close eye on the emergence of Intel processors … but also those of AMD now as the company surprises the industry with its new features. And now it turns out that In beta 1 for macOS Catalina 10.15.4 recently introduced details of AMD processor codes.
Those codes are Picasso, Raven, Renoir and Van Gogh precisely: they are artists names but also code names to processors such as Ryzen 4000. start Macs that ignore Intel processors and equip AMD chips.

The distance of the AMD processor is very wide, so it is very difficult to determine which Mac can see the arrival of this processor. We can see the Ryzen range on the iMac and / or MacBook Pro, or that amazing Threadripper 399X on machines like the Mac Pro. Or as they say about the source, this mysterious Mac based game That came from rumors last year.
If Apple does its part of the task of adding macOS to the development of these processes, the result of this could be the arrival of Macs with more performance and or a slight decrease in price in accordance with the one used by AMD to sell such articles. Right now there is something that is very abusing and uncertain, but it is very interesting.
