This comparison is preliminary and it will be updated when we have more tests available.

Specifications

All the information that we have on the Apple M1 shows us that it has 8 cores and uses the big.LITTLE architecture. What this means is that the CPU cores are divided, so that we have 4 power-efficient cores that handle light tasks and background processes and 4 high-power cores, that kick in when maximum performance is needed. The Ryzen 7 also has 8 cores but has double the number of threads.

CPU benchmarks

In the Single-core test, the M1 outperformed its AMD rival for today by 54%. As for the Multi-core benchmark, the results were a lot closer, but the Apple M1 managed to defeat the Ryzen 7 once more, by 13%.
