@108u9 7 месяцев назад

Hi Art, would you take a look at “Just Josh” just published video on the M3 14/16”? It’s a sensationalistic video title but not inaccurate to the content because it does go quite critical about the MBP lineup. In particular, the drop in memory bandwidth is repeatedly throughout the video cited as an issue for photography/videography apps which is a different from your findings and assertions that the memory bandwidth doesn’t really matter and that the apps can’t take full advantage of the speeds. The presenter (Josh?) does appeal to his extensive experience with tech to supplement that his criticism holds weight and accuracy. A bit confused as there are two separate assertions about the impact of memory bandwidth. Would like for you to take a look at his findings/video. Thank you!

@108u9 7 месяцев назад

In particular his reply to “Plumber_Dave” in the comments of that video, there’s an assertion that memory bandwidth difference is the cause of the difference in performance you cited in your video. Maybe worth taking a look at that reply thread as well. Hope to arrive at a clearer, more accurate understanding!

What are your thoughts on throttling and fan noise in the top spec 14" vs 16" M3 Max and also the base (14/30) 14" M3 Max? I have a nearly maxed 14" scheduled to be delivered next week and I'm having second thoughts on if I made the right choice after seeing Max Tech's youtube throttling test from today.

@ArtIsRight 7 месяцев назад

I think you'll be fine. This is a conversation that happens every generation since M1, this is nothing new. Not that the points are not valid but if you want small size and power, there are always going to be compromise. The point is that Apple won't necessary intentionally release a faulty computer. 14" will run hotter, yes smaller thermal dissipation, fan is louder, yes it does run hotter. But I don't feel it would be such a big deal. I got the M2 Max base in a 14" and despite the downside listed, it has been working fine.

@bladerealm124 7 месяцев назад

@ArtIsRight how significant do you think the throttling is on the top spec 14" M3 Max vs the base 14" M3 Max and the 14" M3 Pro variants? I've seen people speculating that the the base 14/30 may run as fast as the 16/40 14" variant in many tasks due to the 14" 16/40 being throttled/handicapped, while the 14/30 version is both quieter and not being throttled as much.

@seanmeredith616 6 месяцев назад

What's more important to me than Lightroom importing and exporting speeds is the responsiveness of the application while I'm using it. Currently my Intel and M1 Macs lag when correcting R5 RAW files: moving from image to image lags, moving from Library to Develop lags, moving in and out of the crop tool lags. Any experiences to share with the latest M3 MacBooks?

@ArtIsRight 6 месяцев назад

they are fine and LRC slows over the usage time like with any other computers. I want quantifiable metric.

You should be fine with either spec. If you are going to get the pro, I recommend base SoC and save some money there.

@JohnLe 7 месяцев назад

I am in the same boat as you. I edit both photos and videos, and I do make some money off of my work. after looking at the 16" pro with 36GB of RAM and 1 TB SSD, i might as well spend the extra $360 to get the 16" BASE max that comes with all of the upgrades i was doing on the PROs. thinking of 16" to avoid thermal throttling and to be able to edit easier on the go; however, i kind of want the 14" for the portability

If you don't need 128GB don't get it. At most it is a few seconds also if any only if you are using that much to start with. Look at the results from the Ultra 128GB, there are some gained but clear ones are only in a very selective few cases.

But with the ~$50 price difference should I go with refurb max or stick with the m3pro?

That is a good way of looking at it; however, LRC, LR, and other photo apps can now leverage the extra GPU inside the Max SoC; some of the performance improvements are significant enough to justify the Max, especially if you are a "Pro". But yes all of these machines are way more than what most really need at this point in time.

On a forum there is an interesting update concerning LrC and the Apple Neural Engine debacle. On his M1 Max 16" Macbook Pro 64gb he reports that LrC 12.5 Denoise AI using Monterey (Neural Engine still worked in Monterey) took 10-11 seconds on his 45.7mp Nikon Z9 photos. Now with LrC 13.0.1 using Sonoma it takes 25-30 seconds. I suspect Adobe detects that Monterey is running which has the working Neural Engine so uses it, but with Sonoma and Ventura it uses the much slower GPU. In this case it shows the GPU takes 3 times longer. On my M2 Pro 16" Macbook Pro 32gb I tried LrC 12.3 using Ventura and 13.0.1 using Ventura on the same 45mp Canon R5 photo. With 12.3 it took 34 seconds and with 13.0.1 it took 38 seconds so 12% longer. Topaz Denoise AI takes 9 seconds. Topaz has said in the past they use the Neural Engine and they also seem to care less about problems. They seem to continue to use the Neural Engine for the speed and accept the Neural Engine problems that sometime show up in images. DxO says they implemented some "temporary" kludge that allows them to use the Neural Engine and then fix the problems it produces (which probably makes it a bit slower). Since it appears the Neural Engine bugs are now permanent and will never be fixed then maybe Adobe should do something similar.

@ArtIsRight 7 месяцев назад

@henryrichardson3508 7 месяцев назад

@@ArtIsRight Here is one more bit of interesting information. He reported also that on his Windows 11 PC (i7-8900K, 64GB, Nvidia RTX 3070ti) that it takes 11 seconds, so the same time as on his M1 Max when on Monterey. As Adobe's Eric Chan wrote months ago they use the Nvidia Tensor cores (similar to Apple Neural Engine -- except the Tensor cores work). The M1 Max, M1 Pro, and M1 all have the same 16-core Neural Engine so we can expect that all of them on Monterey would be about 11 seconds, I think. The M2 Max, M2 Pro, and M2 all have the same 16-core Neural Engine and Apple says it is 40% faster than the one in the M1 series. So, we can make a reasonable guess that on Monterey the time would be about 6.6 seconds. The M3 Max, M3 Pro, and M3 all have the same 16-core Neural Engine and Apple says it is 15% faster than the one in the M2 series. So, we can make a reasonable guess that on Monterey the time would be about 5.6 seconds.

@henryrichardson3508 7 месяцев назад

@@ArtIsRight Hmm, maybe M3 on Monterey (or a fixed Ventura/Sonoma) would be more like 4.4 seconds. Apple says that the M3 Neural Engine is 60% faster than the M1 Neural Engine. Does this sound right? Of course, all of these are just guesstimates. It is possible that the Neural Engine is used in conjunction with the GPU, not totally replacing it.

@aberteig 7 месяцев назад

Great and complex comparison. Sorry...this was driving me crazy - "attributing to" and "attributable to" show causality in opposite directions. Effect -> "attributable to" -> Cause. Cause -> "attributing to" -> effect (although counter-intuitively, "attributing to" really just means "the ascribing of a work (as of literature or art) to a particular author or artist") If you want to use the form "Cause -> XXXX -> Effect" it would be better to say "This cause is contributing to this effect." Eg. at 13:50 the clear way to show the relationship between cause and effect would be to say "The increase in the GPU on this system is CONTRIBUTING TO a much faster time..."

Looks like it was running better on MBP 2016 TOUCHBAR. Would getting the M3 MAX help me out on this non native Apple Silicon game (it was developed for Intel) or would it make only a tiny difference? I heard non native games don’t use GPU that much but only single cores. Thanks!

Strange comparison, why Memory size wasn't adjusted? if we are trying to see the improvements brought by CPU, other components must be equal. 18Gb on M3P != 36Gb on M3M .5TB on M3P != 1TB on M3M So, what are we comparing here? We compare totally different systems. Performance is not only on the CPU, it is the conjunction of all components.

Base max vs Max with 16c CPU and 40c GPU, should be a no brainer. For $300 you're getting a $200 worth memory upgrade and the high end SoC... but it's still 300 bucks though....

@ArtIsRight 7 месяцев назад

yeah but look at the performance and the force $500 upgrade, marginal at best, I don't see a no brainer there

@smoscar 7 месяцев назад

@@ArtIsRight I'm not sure I get where the $500 upgrade is coming from. My point was between the base M3 Max with a 14-core CPU, 30-core GPU and that's limited to 300GB/s memory bandwidth, versus the M3 Max with the 16-core CPU, 40-core GPU that has 400GB/s memory bandwidth. For $300 you are getting an additional 12GB of memory (marked at $200) a far better CPU core distribution (12 performance, 4 efficiency) AND the 400GB/s bandwidth to access all that memory. So, it truly is a no brainer, right?

And, of course, he is throwing major shade at other youtubers in this space. I can’t do justice to all he is saying in the comments section do if you’re interested, you may wish to pop over. Take care, Art!

It is really just paying for your workflow and need really. There's always something in every gen, if it is not the SSD, it is the memory bandwidth, or the memory or the upgrade price, etc. Based on my test the pro photo apps that I use don't show the variations, but if one can prove it sure.

Only recently have noticed memory limitation with the based 16gb, with Swap being as high as 6gb in some instances. I can chalk this to going from the Nikon Z6 24mp to z8 45mp; 2gb of " swap stutter" was normal in my usage with the Z6 and hit close to the end of the workflow. However, with the Z8, there is higher swap and noticeable mid workflow. Along, with probably contributing to some battery usage increase. 400+ photos is regular not quite 1000 like you tests lol Wondering if the M3 pro 36gb is 'enough' for my use case scenario or if i should do M3 Max 36gb. While deals come and go for current 2023 black Fridays 200$ at best buy MBP Max 14 base cpu + 1tb for $2999 or MBP 16 base cpu + 36gb 512gb for $2699 ~ a sub 300$ difference including tax plus in store hold pick up ( too many delivery issues) Amazing through videos!

The upgrade is a no brainier especially when you work as a photographer. It never has been a long term solution to rely on external drive to organize your ressources . I’d never recommend less than 2 tb and a 4 or 8tb of disk drive is in my opinion the best way to work flawlessly. Same for the RAM 32gb is the bare minimum for demanding tasks and multi tasking do I’d recommend to go for at least 64gb of ram Always thinks s a ok g term investment and a long term time saving and benefits . The question is how much do you charge for the hour , how many days can you save over your investment This is why I don’t agree with your point. Of view in your review . Don’t minor the peace of mind . When you are on the rush it’s not 1 time 5mn saving but multiply by the number of consecutive works and time that you are saving . Moreover time Saving os crucial in event and cinema industry
