How strong is the Apple M1 Ultra? In a specific load and application, it is indeed a mess, but there is still a big gap away from the field of optimization and expertise, which is far from the seconds that Apple advertises.
PassMark has now updated the single-core and multi-core CPU performance rankings, especially with AMD’s latest Zen3 architecture thread tearer PRO 5000WX series, we let the 20-core M1 Ultra try to challenge it.
In terms of single core, Intel’s 12th-generation Core directly dominates the list, monopolizing the top 11. The i9-12900KF has the highest score of 4220, and the M1 Ultra is 12th with a score of 3896, which is 7.7% behind the first place. Not very big.
Of course, the M1 Ultra is just a violent double-die stack, the basic structure has not changed, and the frequency is unlikely to change greatly, so the single-core performance of the M1 Max, M1 Pro, and M1 is not much different, only up to 3.5%.
In terms of multi-core, AMD’s thread tearer and Xiaolong are welcome. The latest 64-core thread tearer PRO 5995WX has broken through 100,000 points for the first time, reaching 108822.
The M1 Ultra has a score of 41306, which is 2.6 times worse than the tearer PRO 5995WX.
However, it still has a slight advantage of 1%, surpassing the i9-12900KF of the large and small core architecture, and lagging behind by 10.6% compared to the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X.
Of course, it’s unfair to compare the M1 Ultra to the thread tearer, and here is just to see how much the two are different, so don’t take it too seriously.
