Performance Race 2023 will be exciting!
An exciting performance race in the mobile sector should await us next year. A new Geekbench entry gives a first look at the performance of the upcoming Apple M2 Max chip. Obviously, Apple will outperform even the most powerful mobile CPUs from AMD and Intel.
Next year is waiting with us Apple M2 Max chip A new SoC for the MacBook Pro. The chip will have eight performance cores and four efficiency cores, meaning these two efficiency cores offer more than the M1 Max. Multi-threaded performance will increase significantly. This is now also confirmed by a Geekbench entry, according to which the CPU even looks older than some mobile processors from AMD and Intel.
Apparently the chip was in a prototype called “Mac 14,6” installed, including 96 GB of RAM installed. In the Geekbench benchmark, the SoC achieved a respectable single-core score 2,027 points, which beats the Intel Core i9 12900HK (Test: Intel Core i9-12900K) by 21 percent. AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX even surpassed 27 percent. The situation is similar with the multi-core score, where the M2 Max scores 48 percent higher than the AMD CPU. The Intel model also beat the 9 percent rate.
model | Apple M2 Max | Apple M1 Max | AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX | Intel Core i9-12900HK | Intel Core i9-12900HX |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Geekbench 5 (single-core) | 2,207 points | 1,782 points | 1,592 points | 1,665 points | 1,906 points |
Geekbench 5 (Multi-core) | 14,888 points | 12,697 points | 10,004 points | 13,648 points | 16,311 points |
It will be particularly interesting to see how the M2 Max fares against new mobile platforms from AMD and Intel next year. Both manufacturers are expected to showcase their upcoming products at CES 2023 in Las Vegas. The efficiency comparison is particularly exciting, as Apple is likely to thank for that More economical ARM architecture It will be convenient. Also, don’t lose sight of an “obscure” competitor: too Qualcomm Looking to launch a new mobile platform based on ARM for notebooks next year For the first time since 2012, the manufacturer has relied on a custom CPU architecture that relies on Nuvia’s know-how.
