About a week ago, Apple gave us some new products and updates related to its components. One of the novelties in the hardware field was the new M2 Ultra chip. And now the latest tests show that this powerful SoC manages to be only 10% slower than the powerful GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card of the new generation from Nvidia.
Tests show that the M2 Ultra is only 10% slower than the RTX 4080
arise now New standardized tests On Geekbench 6 that shows Apple's recently unveiled M2 Ultra is just 10% slower than the GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card, Nvidia's second most powerful GPU, with the RTX 4090 being the top-of-the-range model.
In the Metal benchmark, the new Apple SoC achieved a score of 220,674, which turned out to be higher than many other chips. For example, tests show that the M2 Ultra is 46% faster than its predecessor, the M1 Ultra, which has a score of 150,407. With this score, a significant jump in performance is to be expected, not least because the M1 Ultra has 64 GPU cores while bringing the new chip with it. 76 cores.
But one of the highlights of this test score is our comparison with the powerful Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card which achieved a score of 245808, making it just 10% faster than Apple's M2 Ultra.
On Twitter, user James Atkinson mentioned YouTube user Vadim Yuryev about the results of the Geekbench 6 benchmark tests.
Thus, expectations are high for the performance that Tim Cook's new chip will deliver to its equipment. Of course, curiosity about the future generation of M3 chips is also growing, which should arrive at the end of this year or at the beginning of 2024.
