Is the macoscatalina in 20 13 an m chip?

20 13 macOS Catalina is not an m chip, because the m chip is a chip developed by Apple itself, which was first used in the new Mac computer released in 2020. In 20 13, Apple still uses processors based on Intel architecture to drive its Mac computers.

It is worth expanding that M chip is an ARM-based chip developed by Apple. Compared with using Intel processor, Apple's M chip has a significant improvement in performance and power consumption. This transformation provides Apple with greater flexibility and control, enabling them to better optimize the cooperation between hardware and software, and provide more efficient performance and longer battery life. Therefore, Apple decided to gradually turn to M chips in 2020 to provide better user experience and higher performance.
