Default New M2 Macs Out Today

Looks like the mini now gets an M2 pro chip and the 14-16 inch laptops get up to a M2 Max chip.

Still 5 nano meters from what I can gather.

Yes, and double the price because we all need 8TB of that wicked fast storage...

I'm curious how the M1 max will compare to the M2 Pro.

V6 is coming. And I am guessing he needs V5 to work with Silicon processors.

Yeah, V5 is just Rosetta at the moment as far as I know, though it works fine that way. Is V6 rumored to be Native? I just saw the preview and it looks promising, but no mention of Silicon support.

Don't know. V5 works okay on Silicon, though I've found it a little slow.

Single core performance (which is quite important in audio) is not that much different.
