Apple's M2 Ultra chip Geekbench 6 Metal has been released, only 10% slower than the RTX 4080
After the Geekbench 5 CPU was exposed, Apple's latest M2 Ultra chip appeared in the Geekbench 6 platform again, showing that its graphics processing capacity was only 10% slower than Nvidia's RTX 4080 graphics card. The RTX 4080 is Nvidia's second fastest desktop graphics card, after the RTX 4090.
The M2 Ultra in the test has a unified RAM of 128GB and a 24 core CPU configuration, with 76 GPU cores. In the Metal test of Geekbench 6, the M2 Ultra chip scored 220674, while the M1 Ultra chip (64 graphics cores) scored 150407. This indicates that the M2 Ultra chip has significantly improved graphics processing, an increase of 46% compared to the M1 Ultra.
As a comparison, the RTX 4080 graphics card scored 245808 points in the same test, which is only 10% higher than the M2 Ultra chip. This means that Apple's self-developed chip can already be compared to desktop level graphics cards.
Of course, different tests may have different results, but this is also sufficient evidence of Apple's progress in the field of customized chips. We look forward to more surprises when Apple releases the next generation M3 series of chips later this year or early 2024.
