2007年1月10日 · I really didn't want to buy the recently announced Mac Mini. I had hoped a refresh of the Intel version was around the corner and that there would be a pro model of the Mini introduced this year that allowed more than 16GB ram. That doesn't look like it's going to happen in 2021. So, I caved...

2022年3月9日 · If you are running any memory intensive programs/apps then consider getting the base Mac Studio. If you are just a video streamer, web hopping, multiple browsers, light / casual user then the M1 Mini would be an excellent upgrade from Intel machines.

2014年5月17日 · One more suggestion for OP: if you can hold out for an M3 Mac Mini launch (conceptually this year), the M2 option will likely drop in price comparable to M1 options, so then you could consider the full 7 + 2 years with an M3 Mini vs. what should be added cost savings with M2 Mini now one formal generation behind in the Mac Mini model.

2020年11月10日 · The m1 will be significantly faster CPU wise (by how much is the question - given the i7 is only about 1.7X (in Geekbench 5 multicore) faster than the i3, I would say the m1 should be ahead of the i7 in the mini by a still significant margin).

2014年3月19日 · I currently have a Windows Intel i5 Kaby Lake Mini ITX machine running as my Plex server at home. It also serves as a file and music server for all my old ripped obscure CDs. It works absolutely fine to be honest. 4K HW transcodes without any problems, but my biggest issue is simply the amount...

2023年2月1日 · Back when I got my M1 MM, I posted some real world comparisons between the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gen i7, and the M1 Mac Mini. I did multiple encodes, varying in difficultly, and the M1 beat out all the Intel chips on every test, but I was a little disappointed in how well the old Intel chips did against a new AS chip.

2024年10月29日 · The M4 and M4 Pro Mac mini represent the most significant update to Apple's compact desktop in years, marking an evolution not only in performance but in design and functionality as well. The new, dramatically smaller enclosure, improved thermal design, and front USB-C ports are standout changes that make the M4 Mac mini much more versatile.

2015年2月5日 · Then recently I finally replaced it with an M1 Mini which runs circles around almost any Intel Mac. M1 runs ice cold, super snappy, and can handle 20+ tabs each on Safari, Chrome, Firefox + video streaming all without the fan kicking in. Currently using it in dual monitor configuration (27" Thunderbolt + 32" 4K).

2012年3月14日 · Although I was a (rare) fan of the 2013 Mac Pro, I prefer the M1 mini in every way BUT since you're running a lot of VMs (esp. windows) and/or RAM intensive activities, I'd stick with Intel for now. Apple won't completely drop the 2013 Mac Pro for a while, you could still buy one with a three year Apple Care warranty last year, and most of the ...
