M5 Pro may separate out GPU and CPU for new server-grade performance

Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo says that Apple will move away from its current processor designs that keep the CPU and GPU cores on the same chip — and see a performance gain.

TSMC has just announced an all-new chip production process called “A16”

One of the reasons for Apple Silicon’s speed over the previous Intel processors has been that each M-series chip has been a single unit. This System-on-a-Chip (SoC) idea cuts bottlenecks by having all the processor’s elements together on one chip package.
