![]() Both machines are configurable beyond the $10,000 mark, if you do so desire. We’ve outfitted our dream machine with upgraded RAM at 64GB and SSD storage of 1TB to match the base M1 Ultra offering from Apple. The Threadripper thrashes with up to 4.30 GHz, 12 Cores, 24 threads and 64MB Cache. Lenovo chose to house the groundbreaking AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 3945WX processor (which is yet-to-be-bested in a benchmark CPU speed test – not even by Apple’s M1 Ultra). But benchmarks and numbers matter, and both titans came to play. Even graphics-intense content creators and those doing thread-heavy tasks would have a hard time finding the upper limit on either of these machines. Let’s face it: This is more compute power than any of us needs. In overall aesthetics and form, we simply must give the nod to Apple here. It’s basically just a bit larger than two Mac Minis stacked on top of each other (someone at Apple missed out on a Big Mac cross-promotion opportunity with McDonald’s). Apple has somehow managed to squeeze its most monstrously powerful computer yet into a 7.7-inch square footprint at a height of just 3.7 inches. Where it really shines, though, is overall size. Of course, Apple’s design approach is austere as well, if not a little slicker in the branding consistency department. ![]() But even with a substantial presence, Lenovo keeps things toned down with its all-black simple design. Lenovo’s machine is no dainty workstation, coming in at 18.1 inches tall, 6.5 inches wide and 17.3 inches long. ![]() The simple, no-frills housing on the ThinkStation 620 gives easy access to internals for those who like to do their own upgrades, although we’d like to meet the person who needs more power than even the base configuration wields. Lenovo’s research and development department must have been seeing stars when they started writing down plans for this monster, which can weigh up to 50 pounds depending on configuration. Getting Ripped With The P620, While Apple Slices Size the Lenovo ThinkStation P620 featuring AMD’s Threadripper CPU. But Apple came in strong with serious performance in a compact workstation.ĭesktop PC giants collide as CRN examines the Mac Studio with M1 Ultra chip vs. AMD’s Threadripper offers blistering speeds needed for the most demanding and graphic-intense work. The release was a wild roundhouse punch aimed squarely at top chips from AMD and Intel. PC bickering is mostly a dog whistle meant to drum up fiery debates among fandom in each camp, the allure of a scorecard featuring two heavyweight desktop computer brawlers in their prime was too good to ignore.Īpple turned a lot of heads this year with the springtime announcement of its Mac Studio featuring its “system on a chip” M1 Ultra processor. While we realize that the constant Mac Vs.
