Once a native miner is released for macOS ARM, results are going to be phenomenal. Parallels graphics performance is absolutely insane.

Is Windows-ARM able to be natively installed yet on the M1's? Once it can be, we'll be able to test NiceHash miners.

I supposed Parallels and XMRig isn't much better on the M1 MAX for CPU? GPU probably won't work still

I have the same machine and have been researching and waiting for this GPU for over 2 years. If someone writes actual native miner for this GPU we can easily get closer to 40Mhs. Also, the chip is setup for more. The neural engine and CPU are capable of simultaneous compute. There's no reason a wel...

Which miner are you using? Please post your *ENTIRE* output of the miner here

Mind sharing those steps with me and all?

Thanks in advance

Thank you for sharing this. I'll be sure to get it a shot soon..

It would be nice to see if all GPU's working during mining.
