Apple is building an exciting new GPU to power Apple’s first ARM-based iMac in 2021. This GPU, codenamed “Lifuka”, will be manufactured in TSMC’s new 5 nm node and promises to be faster and more energy-efficient than Intel.
According to a new report, we now know that the codename “Lifuka” is the Apple GPU that is manufactured by TSMC on its new 5 nm node. However, the China Times reports that Apple’s new chip will not only be faster but also more energy-efficient than Intel’s chip.
The China Times writes: “Mac personal computers will use a graphics processor developed and designed by Apple. Recently, the industry has reported that in addition to Apple Silicon processors, Apple’s iMac desktop computers, which will be released next year, will also be equipped with Apple-designed GPUs.
