Giant technology company Apple announced that they would stop using Intel processors at the WWDC event last week and switch to Apple Silicon.. The giant company explained that the reason for this move is to increase performance as much as possible and to use minimum power.. Today, a former Intel employee explained the reason for this move.
Speaking to PC Gamer, François Piednoël, who was an engineer at Intel, explained that this decision was made entirely due to bugs.
François Piednoël said in a statement, “The lack of quality assurance that Skylake made its users feel was more than a problem.. The problems it created were abnormally bad. We were quoting quite a bit for the stuff inside Skylake. Our perhaps number one client, Apple, was top of the line at finding problems with the architecture, and it got worse and worse.. If your client finds almost as many bugs as you do, you are not swimming in the right waters.”
However, perhaps the biggest factor in the transition to Apple Silicon is that Apple is pretty bored with Intel’s wrong and missing deadlines.. The disruption experienced in these delivery dates has had a huge impact on Apple.. The company built Macs with legacy chips. After these events, the company decided to switch to Apple Silicon and took control of the processor completely and moved away from the problems it had with Intel.. His problems with Skylake were now overflowing.. The company, which made analyzes on the idea of transition, decided to switch due to the increase in errors and late delivery dates in the following processes.. Basically, this poor quality assurance provided by Skylake is responsible for Apple’s move away from Intel.”
Mistakes with Intel Aren’t Just the Reason for Switching to Apple Silicon
One of the reasons Apple wants this transition is that all systems, including Macs, iPhones and iPads, have the same Apple Silicon architecture, as the company explained at WWDC, for those who develop applications for these systems.
Although Apple is in the early stages of transitioning to Apple Silicon in general, it seems to surpass Intel with the outstanding performance and minimum power consumption promised by its processors.. It would not be right to make such a comment without fully examining the Apple Silicon, but if what the company says is true, we can say that it stands as a device worth waiting for.
