Apple launched the new M4 MacBook Pro models earlier this week, and the M4 Pro and M4 Max chips really surprised us with their performance ratio compared to older models and the competition. In a new comparison video, YouTuber Vadim Yuryev from Max Tech stacks the M4 Pro and M4 Max chips benchmarks against the Intel Ultra 9 285K and AMD Ryzen 9950X. It can be observed that Apple has managed to pull off a fantastic feat of engineering that delivers enhanced computational and graphical gains.
In the initial Geekbench 6 results, the M4 Pro chip performed exceptionally well, beating the likes of Apple's own older flagship processors. The SoC secured a single-core score of 3925 against the Intel Ultra 9 285K, which scored 3450, and AMD Ryzen 9 9950X with a 3359 score. We must note that both Intel and AMD chips are clocked at 5.7GHz, while the M4 Pro chip is clocked at 4.5GHz.
In terms of multi-core results, the 14-core M4 Pro chip also beats Apple's M2 Ultra chip with a 22,669 core. It is only slightly lower than the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K chip, which features a multi-core score of 23,024, while the Ryzen 9 9950X rests at last with a score of 20,183. The M4 Pro chip's massive performance gains compared to the competition are evident in numbers only at this stage, and the real-world usage could be different. However, the fact that this level of performance exists on a 14-inch MacBook Pro is nothing short of surprising.
Apart from the M4 Pro, Apple also announced the M4 Max chip, which features the same number of cores as the previous M3 Max chip, but the company pulled off some trickery to increase the performance levels. The chip managed to cross the 4,000 mark in
