Upscaled should be its own channel, it's so head and shoulders above anything else on here.

Just wanted to take a moment to say how grateful I am for your incredible in-depth videos on tech.

Upscaled carrying Engadget on its back.

Halfway through this I realized this was Engadget. No exaggeration this is the best thing I've seen from Engadget ever. Wow

RISC V designers are like “You call that RISC?” to Arm chips.

This man taught me with his words and gave me a panic attack with his delivery.

in a single video i got all my answers to the questions I was looking for in various quora answers and reviews

This guy is so serious, enthusiastic - makes one of the most boring tech topics interesting! Thank you!

03:19 this article is total BS. The reason single-core performance is important is that some tasks are just not parallelizable. When people say "single-core performance", they mean single logical core / single-thread performance. When you have a program that does not utilize multiple threads, it does not matter how many logical cores you got - you only use one, so SMT does not help here.

That buff vs buffer was absolutely hilarious 😂

Please, please lay off the insane compression on the dialogue track.

You are a very very good technical communicator who can digest and present technical topics in a very unbiased and clear way. Keep continuing your work!

Single-core (i.e. single-thread) performance tests aim to evaluate the ability of the CPU to run a sequence of instructions with data dependencies between them, branch prediction / recovery from misprediction; they test the effectiveness and efficiency of decoders, pipelining, Out-of-Order execution, not just pure computations. Apple's M1 has 8 decoders, but that does not magically help with resolving dependencies in the instruction pipeline, OoO execution, etc. On the contrary, there are more instructions that need to be reordered for best utilization of the pipeline; more instructions will be scrapped in case of branch misprediction, etc. On x86/64 CPUs there are only 4 decoders per thread as instructions complexity does not allow for more without making the silicon way too complex (according to Intel and AMD engineers). So, to work around this limitation, they've introduced hyper-threading and added 4 more instruction decoders. But, they cannot feed all 8 decoders from a single thread, they must process two threads. While that seems to level the playing field, it does not. Instructions from different threads are inherently independent, so the amount of analysis, reordering and planning that the CPU has to do is reduced. In the multi-threaded tests the advantages of hyper-threading are clearly visible and that's fine, that's how it should be. But changing the testing methodology just to push M1 down is utter garbage and has absolutely no merit.

Upscaled is awesome it's like no other UKposts channels out there in explanation. This guy is excellent in explaining things. And special mention to video editors of Upscaled at Engadget, did excellent job. They nearly brought the half of apple wwdc and put them at correct places, that helped in understanding the concept that this cool guy tries to deliver for us. It's a combined effort. Well done. I'm seeing ur channel is going to get popular soon. LoL it's already famous!

Seriously this is so good, accessible yet rigorous, please keep up! Love it.

This guy is awesome... as a physics person myself, he talks about it technically enough not to bore me to sleep as most channels tend to. Please keep them coming. Again AMSL episode was amazing.

Great video man, good work! I really appreciate that you put all this effort to bring us a video this much rich with details!

Sooo much love for this series. It really makes some techie deep dive information really accessible to the enthusiast.

This is the kind of tech videos I’ve been waiting for. In depth but greatly easily explained

the best video series about apples M1 chips I've seen!

More upscaled. PS - Take your time, thank you so much for such detailed video. 😊

Great video! Bought an M1 Air a few weeks ago. Been impressed by its performance and battery life.

Very well explained, animated and really easy to follow. Good job mate.

About the Cinebench benchmark, Intel 8 core 16 threads, or course it wins because realistically M1 has a little big config. Yes it is 8 core but only 4 of its cores CPU are high performance based cores, and 4 low power cores. That said this is crazy impressive what it has been able to achieve with what its got.

impressed with the work you/the team put in. Really detailed info with nice flow

Amazing and informative, not the same boring ones where ppl keep talking about performance benchmarks all the time.

Well done! This is the first M1 video I have seen on UKposts that refer to RISC and OOO execution. There are too many videos with very talky hosts who are doing just that, talking, nothing else! It is refreshing to see a video that touches lightly but does reach the core advanced concepts within CPU designs.

Complex things, but the way of explanation given or presented is great. Those animations where add mul load where awesome which remained me my OS classes at clg.. Lovin it.

Its so nice to have someone talk about processors that actually knows something about ISA's microarchitecture

this guy has quickly become my favorite from Engadget. keep it up my dude!

I sincerely congratulate you on the quality of both presentation and content. You mastered at explaining how all this works. I liked how you explained out-of-order execution and the fact is nothing new and all CPUs do this but at the same time explaining exactly where the M1 is different than its competition.

Excellent video! Seriously. I never thought I'd say it but Upscaled is totally underrated according to the quality

This is one of the best explanations of instruction level and thread level parallelism I've seen. Great content!

Adding my voice to the calls for Upscaled to be it’s own channel - let’s keep building momentum!

super informative series ... much much needed.. Thanks Engadget

The content and explanations are exceptionally clear and professional (coming from a technical background in micro architecture), unlike most other media where the core concepts are shoved around and more or less twisted. Great job!

Great color grading throughout the episode! This series is the BEST! Keep them coming!!!

This was the most in-depth video I’ve seen on the M1 macs and I loved it

First time watching the show. I’m impressed by the production quality plus the detailed technical content in a digestible format. I’m a fan.

Didn't expect such a thorough video. Thank you!

Awesome video, my M1 mac mini came in earlier this week and my god I love it, it's a gigantic upgrade from my nearly a decade-old hand-me-down Macbook Air.

Incredibly well done, thanks for these!

This series is amazing, you guys should spin it off into its own channel!

Just wanted to stop a moment and just write this comment to appreciate you about your very in depth research and easy to get explanation. And I like the jokes in between too. Nice work. Keep it up.

Wow that explanation was detailed af Love it

A execution unit is usually broken up into Integer, Floating Point, Load/Store not add, sub, multiple or divide.

This was so incredibly in-depth.. I actually understood some of it

Upscaled is like a whole damn course in current electronics

Well done, thanks for the explanation!

Well done on the instruction animations, clears out lots of doubts!

This channel is so good, I can't compare it to anything else! It should get more views!!

What a fantastically thorough video - thank you! Instant subscribe to the channel.

Thanks for your incredible insight on Chips and sharing with all of us .. 👌👍 keep it up

Wow! Awesome content, Chris! Congrats!

Dude amazing explanations and very informative!

the buff -> buffer part made me spill my coffee XD well done!

Wow. This was so much better than I thought it would be.

I wish they made longer productions like this.

i feel like he's shouting into my ear T_T

Very detailed overview, that's what I really like to see

this is the best vid on the m1 that ive been able to find

Clap for the man right here, his way of explanation was just awesome 👌🏻

Honestly, I'm glad to see people moving away from the x86 architecture. While it's amazing to use, it was also invented decades ago. We need innovation.

As someone with almost no understanding of hardware architecture, these videos gave excellent explanations.

Fantastic video bro. Best video on the topic I’ve seen.

This is what I need!!!!! Thank you for your explanation!

Great video. I haven't tried the M1 as of yet, I'm still happy with my current MBP's.

Cool bro...cant skip anything of your content so infopacked presentation 🔥

Now that is what I wanted to know . Great video

Great stuff! More of this guy please. :)

Love the M1 Air so far. Got it as a stopgap while waiting for the M1X/2 MBP, but I have to say that the fanless experience is something else, and it's surprisingly capable. As far as the SD card, all on board.

I will rewatch this video to understand it better. Thanks for video

Excellent man This is the most awaited tech series on UKposts Very well put I just felt that you compared the M1 to INTEL chips Hopefully you would also included latest AMD chips too in future Zen 3 deepdive this way is expected from you

Best explanation of CPU mechanics I've seen in quite some time

great informative video. A series on photorealism in gaming and the hardware needed to achieve that would be good. memory bandwidth, floating point compute of the GPU, etc.

Man this was so dope! Gosh I enjoy Upscaled!!!

I am so impressed with the M1, and I have gained new admiration of being able to program for each core, which can result in some serious speeds

I alone wrote 4-5 comments for this single vid. Cause it's just 👌🏻 Fun fact: This is my first vid that I'm seeing from this channel. Great work guys.. gg

This guy is so great I could watch him all day. Seriously, great job. I subscribe just for him.

Thank you so much for this video 👍🏻👌🏻✌🏻

Really good video, I learned a lot from it, thank you

Another Excellent Upscaled video, I did find this episode a bit intense on the ears though.

Great content. One tip though, less compression on your voice would be great

3:24 “Oh no, my $899 netbook running at 15 watt TDP and without a fan is only as fast as an i9 9800HK?”…That doesn’t sound like a performance gain that’s been “evaporated away” 🙄

Good stuff, thanks. Bonus points for Cat helper :)

Thanks for the deep dive on the architecture

That's an incredible video. So in-depth yet with a couple of re-watches of certain sections a complete tech dinosaur like me was able to cotton onto it

This is the best video I have seen so far about m1 unlike other crappy youtubers.subscribed.

Wow new info, good video (apart from audio)!

Fantastic video. I appreciate the deep dive.

This video is so good.... All other UKpostsrs are explaining M1 Chip is fast... But u explained Why & how

Great video. Very informative

This is very well made awesome content!

Thank for one more incredible detailed and insightful video. :-)

Best most researched video on m1. Period.

This is a superb explanation!

Mac's been on quite a SISC RISK jurney. Starting with 68k SISC, moving to PowerPC RISC, then to Intel SISC and now back to Arm RISC.

Joy to watch A great breakdown

Great explanation! I didn't know they don't have a hyper threading of some kind.

I've never told any guy this... But I love you bro. These videos are awesome.
