    Read my other replies to this comment. There’s no GPU. It’s an SoC.

        Each power intensive process is given its own dedicated core. The OS is designed specifically to send dedicated processes to the associated core. For example, your CPU isn’t bogged down decrypting data while loading an application.

        You can’t compare it to anything else out at this time. Just learn about it, or don’t. Guessing is just a waste of time.

            Sent to one of two processors on a PC, or 18-52 dedicated cores in an M chip.

                The topic is substantiating that 8GB of UM on an Apple Silicon Mac being acceptable for a base model.

                I’ve explained how the UM is used strictly as a storage liaison due to the processor having a multitude of dedicated cores, with the ability to pass data directly without utilizing UM.

                I don’t know what you want from me, but maybe you should just do your own homework instead of being combative with people who understand something better than you.

                  I really doubt they run apps with cache turned into scratchpad memory.
