Kwi-WWDC 2020, UTim Cook wabhengeza ukuba iApple ikulungele ukusebenzisa iprosesa yayo kamva kulo nyaka. I-Apple Silicon iya kuba yinyani ecacileyo kwiinyanga ezimbalwa. Okwangoku, iiMacs ziyaqhubeka nokufaka iprosesa kwinkampani ye-Intel. Lo sele ebhengeza Izibonelelo zeeprosesa zeLiger Lake. Ezinye iiprosesa ekunokwenzeka ukuba azinakubekwa nakweyiphi na iMac nangona i-Intel ibonakala isenethemba.
Ndikunye no-Apple Silicon kaTim Cook wentengiso esebenzayo kwiinyanga ezimbalwa kwaye ukwandiswa ngokupheleleyo kwiminyaka emibini, amazwi ahlukeneyo e-Intel akhawuleze athi nangona intsebenziswano phakathi kweenkampani ezimbini inokufikelela esiphelweni, kufuneka ithathelwe ingqalelo ukuba iya kuhlala inxibelelana nazo zonke iiMac ezineeprosesa zohlobo lwentengiso kwaye kusenokwenzeka ukuba ezinye zezintsha zisenokusetyenziswa kwezi Macs zilandelayo.
Kodwa oku kunokwenzeka kunzima ukwenzeka kuba ukuba ukwaziswa kweApple Silicon kwenzeka kamva kulo nyaka, kuya kungqinelana nokuphehlelelwa kweTiger Lake. I-Apple ayizukukhathaza ukwenza iimodeli ezintsha zeMac ngezi processor usazi ukuba kwiminyaka emibini ubuninzi kufuneka ubhengeze ukuba ayisasebenzi ngokwamkelwa ngokupheleleyo kweApple Silicon.
Iiprosesa zeLiger Lake ziyamangalisa. Iapile kufuneka ilinonophele eli nyathelo ukunqanda ukuwela kulwalamano. I-Intel ilungiselela iiprosesa ezikhawulezayo ngeendleko ezisezantsi kunye nolawulo lobushushu olungcono. Oku kuthetha ukuba iya kwenza ngcono ngokwendlela yokusebenza kunemizobo yakho ukusuka kwisizukulwana se-11 nangaphambili, njengoko inakho ukusebenza kwizinga eliphezulu kunye nokusebenza okungcono kumbane ofanayo. Ngaphandle koko, inokubonelela ngokusebenza ngokuthelekiswa nesizukulwana esidlulileyo xa usebenzisa amandla amancinci.
