M1 Mac mini vs Hackintosh [Performance Tests] [Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Photoshop]
A few days ago I posted my unboxing and first impressions of the new M1 Mac mini and to sum up I was blown away with how well it performs and how quiet it is while doing everything! Even apps running through rosetta (Apple’s Intel translation layer) are very quick and snappy and for most people they won’t even know there has been a transition (which is the idea). I’ve been thinking of ways to show this performance on video and that’s what this video is going to be about. Like I said in my previous video my previous “Mac” was a Hackintosh that I built with an Intel i7-8700K (6-cores), AMD RX580 8GB, 32GB of Corsair 3200Mhz RAM & my boot drive was the Samsung 970 Evo NVME M.2 Drive (500GB). In this video I’m going to compare the performance of the two as I’m sure there will be a lot of people in the Hackintosh community that are curious and also those who are still undecided between the two. I’ll look at Cinebench, Geekbench, Logic Pro, Final Cut Pro, Handbrake & will also run the PugetBench for Photoshop test!
