Given that the latest Mac mini can’t be configured with the M2 Max, the device that appears in Geekbench 5 is likely to be the new 14-inch or 16-inch MacBook Pro, but the OpenCL results show that its GPU is outmatched by the RTX 4070, which is powered by one of Samsung’s notebooks Among them, the notebook also uses a 14-core 20-thread Intel Core i9-13900HK processor.

In the OpenCL benchmark test, the Samsung notebook scored 102,130 points, while the M2 Max with a 38-core GPU only scored 75,139 points, a 35% performance difference, and the power limitations of the RTX 4070 in the Samsung notebook were not mentioned on Geekbench 5, which means that those slightly thicker gaming notebooks that with more powerful cooling systems are likely to gain a bigger lead.

It should be noted that Geekbench 5’s OpenCL scores are not an accurate representation of real-world performance.

However, the new MacBook Pro will certainly outlast the aforementioned Samsung notebooks in terms of battery life, with the company’s larger 16-inch MacBook Pro having the highest battery life of any portable Mac to date, at 22 hours on a single charge, according to Apple.

Apple M2 Max GPU scores

Apple M2 Pro GPU scores

According to the latest Metal score test results, Apple’s high-end M1 Ultra chip for Mac Studio from last year is still the most powerful in terms of graphics performance, still scoring 9 percent better than the M2 Max.

The GPU scores for Apple’s Apple Silicon chips.

• M1 Ultra: 94,583
• M2 Max: 86,805
• M1 Max: 64,708
• M2 Pro: 52,691
• M1 Pro: 39,758

On the M2 Pro’s CPU scores, with the M2 Pro in the new MacBook Pros scored around 1,900 single-core and 15,000 multi-core scores, which means they’re up to 20 percent better than the M1 Pro and M1 Max. This means that their CPU performance is up to 20 percent higher than that of the M1 Pro and M1 Max, which is in line with Apple’s official claims of an increase.

According to the GeekBench score database, the MacBook Pro with the M2 Max chip appeared in the database several times on 18 January, with scores of up to 2030 on the single core and 15333 on the multi-core. The M2 Pro scored 1952 single-core and 15,013 multi-core on GeekBench, so there’s not much difference between the two in terms of CPU.

The M2 Pro has 19 GPU cores and the M2 Max has 38 GPU cores, with the M2 Pro scoring 52,691 and the M2 Max scoring 86,805.
