I was surprised to learn that the

    M1 Max CPU is an ARM/SoC, comparable to an 11th gen Intel i9

It's also a bit apples (heh) to oranges for a handful of reasons, but most impactful

- "unified" ram makes all the system ram available as VRAM - dedicated ai coaccelerator thingy

Both of these reasons allow the apple silicon chips to crush conventional cpus in these kind of AI model workload stuffs

No idea about what the windows arm stuff is capable of. I know they use Qualcomm snapdragon chips though.

“Comparable” is maybe true if we are talking about single core performance, but for memory bandwidth, the M1 Max is about 8 times faster. Wider bus, lower latency, not even close.

To your question, I can’t deny or confirm that because I didn’t tried it this project over a Windows machine yet or a machine with this config
