Apple is in the process of launching the transition from its Mac to an ARM chip (Ming-Chi Kuo just mentioned this in one of its reports, but that doesn't mean we should stop seeing Intel programs in the short and medium term. the new generation of Intel Core chips that could enter the world on the upcoming MacBook Pro. Partners from Xataka present the news.
We're talking specifically about the tenth generation Core i5, i7 and i9 "Comet Lake" H seriesDesigned for high performance laptops that carry 45W power. This is where the 16-inch MacBook Pro comes in, which is currently equipped with ninth-generation Intel Core chips.
Overcoming the 5.3GHz barrier and embracing Wi-Fi 6
The main difference is the H series Comet Lake it depends on the functionality available in Turbo Boost mode: for the first time ever exceeding the 5GHz frequency, something that will be appreciated for performance that requires high efficiency. The Core i5 has 4 cores, while the Core i7 and Core i9 have 6 or 8 cores depending on the model.
Like the additional differences we have with it Wi-Fi network compatibility 6 installed directly on the chips, something Apple's rare at the moment (only the new iPad Pro and iPhone 11 / Pro are compatible). A few months ago we saw a similar launch when we were already talking about 5GHz, which has sparked some criticism referring to Intel's slow progress against AMD breaking many records.
The first ARM Macs may arrive within a few months, however they can do so by starting with the most economical models. So, it is absurd to think that this new H series of tenth-generation Intel chips will be some kind of future Mac. Everything is to be expected.
