Many Things Wrong With 2016 MacBook Pro

Before I begin, I know the Microsoft Event held a day before the Apple Event, I will cover that too. But I am furious about Apple's price to performance ratio and other features. Also, the following you may not understand, but you need to understand how dirty Apple is.

First let's talk about the major spec difference from the previous generations. Apple finally added a discrete GPU in it's laptops. If you don't know, there are two different types of GPU, integrated and discrete. Basically integrated (combined with CPU) is for ultrabook, and discrete (separate from CPU) is for power user. In the case of this MacBook Pro, it is using AMD 460 GPU.

For the past 3 to 5 years, AMD is pretty much dead in computer graphics despite it's success with their budget GPU in PlayStation and Xbox. Few months ago, when the 460 card launched, they said they are going to "work closely" with computer companies, but the promise never delivered (except for Apple)

Instead, companies like HP, Lenovo, Razer, MSI, ASUS etc ditched AMD and decided to work with Nvidia, which is THE king of high-end GPU. If you research or ask someone who learned computer engineering the difference between Nvidia and AMD, you'll find that Nvidia's top end graphics card performance is at least 5 to 7 times better AMD's top end.

Nvidia GPUs that are better than AMD 460 are 1060, 1070, 1080, Titan X Pascal, which can be found in other companies' computers that I mentioned before.

Also, AMD said their card is the budget card for the greater good. But since companies refuse to use it's cards due to it's poor performance, so there's only Apple left, and Apple can price it whatever it wants and force to ruin AMD's reputation of budget. (dirty business)

-----------------------------------------------------------

Speaking of price, the MacBook Pro costs up to $4500 with a i7, 16gb of RAM, AMD 460, 2T of storage. Now what's the price if I add up all the part together? Here's a link with all the component (some are better than Apple's) that I picked out: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/W8XdFd 

If you don't have any idea on building a computer, here is a comparison: Razer Blade 2016 edition (check out here) which has a better performance with same build quality, but sells only around $2000.

All I am trying to convince is stop using Apple products, I acknowledge that Apple did some revolutionary things before. But that was ages ago, now they are just copying technologies that existed for years and putting a premium price on them with many misleading advertisements all across the internet.

Please share this with your friends, that means a lot to me. Have a nice day.
