So do they beat the Snapdragon X Elite?
The M3 Max does. At about half(!?) the power consumption. And the M3 should beat the 14900K in single core.
Yeah they showed a graph saying half the power consumption comparing to an anonymous 12-core PC chip.
I doubt the said 12-core chip is the Snapdragon X Elite, bit we will have to see.
For sure. It was specified that the 12 core chip in question was the 1360p which is substantially less efficient than the Qualcomm chip. It's likely M3 Max will be faster than the Snapdragon X elite but double the power consumption for worse performance is false.
Apple compared it against the $1,299 MSI Prestige 13Evo A13M-050US, mentioned at bottom of the slide.
