The latest single-core performance benchmark for Apple's M1 8 Core ARM CPU has been unveiled and it's faster than the fastest 8 core offerings from both AMD and Intel. The Apple M1 will be used to power Apple's next-generation Macbook and Mac lineups, offering single-core performance on par with the current-generation desktop processors from rivals, AMD and Intel who rely on the x86 CPU architectures.

The Apple M1 CPU is based on the ARM architecture and fabricated on TSMC's 5nm process node. Apple touted during the official unveil that the M1 will offer the best-in-class performance per watt and also utilize a unified memory architecture which would reduce the overall power consumption for the chip itself.
