Why not go even further? Just switch off the pesky temperature limits in the bios.

Why not go even further? Just switch off the pesky computer entirely. No noise, not even coil whine.

truly programmers are minor gods, they even have a choir of angels singing as things are brought to creation from nothing.

Has less to do with the CPU architecture and more with the thermal and fan configuration.

I would assume macs have much higher quality fans due to them having a reputation to uphold.

As someone who has compiled a ton of software on a lot of different laptops, Apple Silicon provides ridiculous performance per watt.

My M1 Pro macbook not only compiles emacs faster than my desktop with a 5600X, but the fans don't even turn on.
