Announcement comes days before Apple launches its first ARM-based laptops.
Nvidia-owned ARM has just announced the Arm Cortex-A78C CPU, which can support up to eight cores and eight MB of cache to meet compute-intensive workloads. What makes the announcement even more noteworthy is that it comes days before Apple will unveil its first batch of three ARM-powered laptops at its ‘One More Thing’ event on November 10. The newly announced CPU is ARMs first serious contender in the high-performance CPU market, currently dominated by Intel and AMD.
