Apple just recently announced its new M3 series Chipset which includes the M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max whereas they also unveiled the Apple Macbook Pro with the M3 chipset. As the M3 Macbook is officially announced benchmark scores have been pouring and surprisingly M3 Max Geekbench 6 CPU scores match the M2 Ultra scores. Therefore in this article, we will discuss M3 Max Geekbench 6 CPU scores on depth.
Apple M3 Max and M2 Ultra Geekbench 6 Scores:
| Geekbench 6 (CPU) | Single-Core | Multi-Core |
| Apple M2 Ultra – 24 cores (Mac Studio 2023) | 2664 | 20924 |
| Apple M2 Ultra – 24cores Mac Pro (2023) | 2741 | 21161 |
| Apple M3 Max- 16 cores | 3227 | 21167 |
The benchmark score which appeared online on Geekbench 6 results reveals the potential of the M3 Max chip as it scores 3227 in single-core and 21167 in multi-core. Whereas the result doesn’t reveal the test device which gives a grasp on the capability of the M3 Max chipset.
Furthermore putting these numbers side by side M3 Max beats Apple’s current top-tier M2 Ultra chip on a single score where M2 Ultra with 24 cores scores 2664 while the latest M3 Max with 16 cores CPU gets 3227 score. Coming to multi-core score the Apple M2 Ultra gets 20924 while M3 Max gets 21167 where again M3 Pro beats Apple M2 Ultra.
