They're definitely pricey, but CPU performance is out of this world. GPU's pretty good too, though not as impressive, I understand. Alas, it'll probably be a few years before I can get one (I use my work machine for almost everything and I just got this one).

It’s not that GPU isn’t impressive. Rather that you can’t put it to use in games.

Fair enough! It doesn't really bother me either way, since I don't really make use of the GPU on my laptop. Curious to try out Tensorflow on one of the new machines, though.

Yes, I just want to see some tensorflow specific benchmarks on the m1 max with 32 gpu cores vs 3080.
