It’s an overall terrific performance from the M1 Mac mini that once again manages to prove itself as a versatile and powerful mini desktop PC. The AMD chip cannot keep up with the Apple M1 in the final benchmarks, which involve editing, exporting, and stabilizing images or video clips.
GRAPHICS UPGRADE FOR MID 2010 MAC MINI PRO
The M1 continued to impress throughout the testing course, including in graphics performance, although the channel seems to mistakenly label the Radeon Graphics 8 iGPU in the Ryzen 9 5900HX as the “Radeon Pro W6900X”. However, as Yuryev points out, this is at a considerable power cost as the Apple chip uses 15 W and the AMD part relies on up to 65 W, so the result for performance per watt was deeply in the Mac mini’s favor.
Unsurprisingly, the Ryzen 9 processor really flexed some impressive muscles in CBR23, with the AMD APU hitting around 4.6 GHz on all of its eight cores and easily beating the score by the M1 SoC.
Single-core and multi-core scores were higher with the Apple Silicon in Geekbench and web-browsing was also snappier with the Mac mini. The results can be seen in the screenshots posted below, but it clearly looks very positive for the Apple M1 chip with both its CPU and GPU components consistently outpacing the not unremarkable Zen 3 processor.
GRAPHICS UPGRADE FOR MID 2010 MAC MINI PC
The clip host Max Yuryev put the M1 Mac mini and Ryzen 9 5900HX Mini PC through numerous tests, including Geekbench 5 (CPU and GPU), Speedometer 2.0, Cinebench R23, 3DMark, GFXBench, Lightroom, and DaVinci Resolve editing. Both Mini PCs have 16 GB RAM and a 256 GB SSD, and they both cost US$899 (although the HX90 is currently available at a pre-sale rate of US$799 for this particular SKU). It actually seemed like a one-sided affair initially, as the M1 Apple Silicon has an 8-core CPU part that can clock at up to a maximum of 3.2 GHz while the Ryzen 9 5900HX is also an 8-core chip that has a base clock of 3.3 GHz but can boost to an advantageous 4.6 GHz. I have talked to Apple Support (they say it should work).The Apple M1 Mac mini has taken on the Minisforum EliteMini HX90 with AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX APU in a battery of benchmarks put to them by YouTube channel Max Tech. I have done everything suggested on the forums. I have read through all of the threads on here about the problem. The new 8GB RAM is 1066 MHz The original 1GBx4GB RAM is 1067 MHz (this RAM works) Here is the only thing that looks odd to me:
I took it out and put the original RAM back. I tried all suggested ways to make this RAM work- no go. Here are the specs for that new RAM:Ĭorsair Apple 8 GB Dual Channel Kit DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM Memory CMSA8GX3M2A1066C7 Upgrading to El Capitan is what started this RAM upgrade problem).

Here are the specs for my Mid-2010 mac mini: I have read that upgrading RAM for the Mac Minis can be an issue, but I want to make sure that I have done everything I can before taking my mac to the shop. I am having trouble upgrading my RAM from the original 4GBx1GB (total 5GB) to the max for this model, which is 8GB (4GBx4GB).
