benchmarks

Ran benchmarks on just arrived 2023 MacBook Pro 16 M2 Max All on battery and in high power mode 1. On top of cloth carrying case Geekbench 5 single 2,029 multi 15,222 Metal 83,546 A second run right away 1,988 15,218 & 86,084 2. Ran on top of stand Improved quit a bit to...

Some sneaky marketing on Apple's part... This article points out that they're comparing the M2 Mac Mini to an older computer (2 generations back) and claiming it's 5x faster than this "bestselling PC." That's pretty devious. How does it compare to a current gen Intel CPU of a similar price...

From the evidence I've seen, I believe firmly that people are vastly overhyping the effects of the throttling in the M2 MacBook Air. The YouTube review I've seen so far with the most thorough benchmarks is Dave2D's, and he went so far as to say that "if you're someone that wants a very powerful...

tl;dr - They are not fair comparisons. I'm not going to be very deep but just enough to make you guys understand things. 1. Cinebench R23 CR23's render engine uses Intel Embree which is Intel's library to accelerate Ray tracing compute using CPU. It supports various SIMD instruction sets for...

I learned Swift a few years back and created a few simple iOS, MacOS apps, and also did some hybrid C++/Obj C/Swift coding using Djinni. Coding is more of a sideline / hobby for me, and I tend to be project-focused rather than wedded to a single language / platform. At the time I was coding in...

Is there any way to find out how fast are usb flash drives are? Perhaps there are apps that can benchmark read & write speeds etc?

A beautiful new base model stock iMac Pro just showed up at my work. It’s a surprise because I was originally denied an upgrade to the Pro version but I think my boss’ boss pulled some strings. I also recently purchased a maxed out 2019 iMac 5K for home use. So I’m in a bit of a unique...

Hey guys, just wanted to get a post going with some benchmarks and stats for this *updated* build that many of you are probably running now. Here's mine: Mac Pro 2009 4,1 > 5,1 XEON x5680 x2 FW: 140.0.0.0 Mojave on OCZ Vertex4 SSD 256GB Win10 on WD Black NVMe 500GB [Lycom DT-120] Ubuntu...

check these out ... look @ the MacBook Air - the gold bar - how can that be right ! http://logicbenchmarks.com/benchmark-results/

Can anyone give me an idea how much faster a modern 2017 27”IMac i5 quad core 3.4/8 is as compared to an older generation say 2013 27”IMac i5 quad core 3.2 in real terms ?? This will b a music machine only . You can pick up an older machine for considerably less , update the HD for an SSD , max...

UPDATED ON 12th February 2018: Feel free to use this thread to add your own discoveries or benchmarsks: Searching Google for Meltdown Spectre performance "Sierra" "SSD" "read" "write" shows this: Mac: Measuring OS X Meltdown Patches Performance...

I found disparate threads on the iMac Pro but does anyone know when GeekBench typically adds new machines their Mac Benchmarks chart? I'd love to know what kind of score the 18 core config gets.
