Love to play computer games On November 26, it was reported that a foreign network security expert, longhorn (@ never_released), said on Twitter that Apple had been developing a new processor A13. The internal model was T8030, and the CPU code was "lighting", which means lightning. In addition, there should be A13X. The powerful A13X may be used by Mac laptops released next year.

Longhorn found that there is a customized version of A13 that will be used on non mobile devices, which may be A13X. At present, the performance of the A12X that has been released is almost the same as the processor of the thin and light notebook, and Apple has its own notebook product line, so the Mac notebook released in the second half of next year may be equipped with A13X.

It is reported that the A13 processor will adopt a new 7nm EUV process, and may also have a new architecture.

Let's review the parameters of A12 bionics this year. The process of A12 bionics is upgraded to 7nm FinFET (A11 bionics is 10nm FinFET). In terms of CPU structure, the combination of two performance cores (large core) and four energy efficiency cores (small core) is the same as A11 bionics. The frequency of large core is further improved to 2.49GHz compared with 2.39GHz of A11 bionics; According to official data, compared with the A11 bionic large core, the performance is improved by 15%, and the energy saving of the small core is improved by 50%.

In terms of GPU, A12 bionics adopts the self-developed four core architecture, which improves the performance by 50% compared with A11 bionic three core GPU, and supports Metal 2 more; The neural network engine has also been improved, with operations up to 5 trillion times per second. The running speed of Core ML is 9 times higher than that of A11 bionics.
