          A CPU performs liner math.

          A GPU performs floating-point math.

          Those are only two of the 18-52 cores (model dependent) of Apple M chips. The OS is designed around this for maximum efficiency. Most Macs don’t even have a fan anymore.

          There. Is. No. Comparison. In. PC.

            A CPU performs liner math.

            A GPU performs floating-point math.

            A GPU performs integer math.

            A CPU performs floating point math.

            All four statements are true.
