    What the fuck is with this trend of releasing a great product and then 2-3 generations later nerfing the shit out of the memory bandwidth? Nvidia, Intel, I think AMD, and now Apple are all guilty of this recently.

      This is no mistake. They’ve purposefully cut a ton of corners with the M1, to make it stand out in exceptional ways. Thankfully for them, everything aligned perfectly in the timeline they expected, however, cutting corners won’t cut it anymore. Now that the dust has settled, they need to keep up with the r&d, and push forward again. It is not an accident, that they’re comparing M3 performance to the M1 series

        I don’t understand your comment at all. They cut corners how? Why is it no accident they are comparing M3 to M1.
