I’m not doing any benchmarks, but it flies through whatever I throw at it and I haven’t heard the fans once and it’s cold to the touch.

Haven’t encountered any compatibility issues either. When you open up an Intel app, it just has you download Rosetta and then you’re good to go.

I’m not on a clean install either. I migrated 150 gigs of data from my previous Mac. I’ll let y’all know if I encounter any issues, but as far as I can tell these things perform as promised.
