Yesterday we shared youThe first resultsPerformance for the M3 Ultra chip, the most powerful ever designed by Cupertino. The CPU tests showed performance slightly superior to the M4 Max, with only 8 % gap, leaving a certain doubt about the interest of this high -end configuration.
Apple offers two versions of its professional office computer: one equipped with the M4 Max chip at 2499 euros, and another with the M3 UltraFrom 4,999 euros. A price difference that deserves to be justified by performance at the height!
A much more efficient GPU
New benchmarks have just been published and this time reveals the graphic performance of the M3 Ultra chip. The results aremuch more impressive on the GPU side.The high -end version equipped with 80 graphic cores obtains a score of 259,668 in metal tests, that is38 % more than the GPU of the M4 Max chip, which reaches 187,460 points.
Compared to the previous generation, the gain is also notable. The GPU of the M3 Ultra surpasses that of the M2 Ultra of16 %, thus confirming its most powerful graphic chip position ever integrated into a Mac. These performances make the Mac Studio M3 Ultra the ideal choice for professionals working on intensive graphic tasks.
A strategic choice for professionals
The Mac Studio equipped with the M4 Max chip probably remainssufficient for the majorityprofessional users. The M3 Ultra version, despite its much higher price, is mainly intended for creatives and developers working on particularly demanding graphic projects.
Apple has not yet planned an ultra M4 version. Some analysts believe that this strategy could aim to differentiate the Mac studio more clearly from the future Mac Pro, which could accommodate a possible ultra or even M4 chip or evenA mysterious "Hidra" chip even more powerful.
