What did I miss? Dell XPS 15 with intel CPU has way higher scores… is Geekbench not capable of working correctly on Apple Silicon? https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/16376678

That's a Geekbench v4 score, which isn't comparable to a Geekbench v5 score. You can see the same laptop on Geekbench v5 here, where it scores much, much lower than the M1: https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/10506812

For those that can't load and are curious, the M1 Max scores about 2x the Intel Core i7-11800H in the Dell laptop on both single core and multi core scores.

Would like to see the Metal benchmark too, but doesn't appear yet on the Geekbench Metal page. That would be interesting to see how Geekbench scores it against many discreet GPUs.

Pretty impressive, all things considered. Looks like it's roughly on par with an AMD 5800X, which is a Desktop CPU with 8C/16T and a 105W TDP.

Impressive but unbelievably expensive considering what will actually be run on it.

I kind of want one, but the 5800x for example is about 10x less expensive than a specced out MacBook Pro

Wow does much better than Geekbench's prior top processor ( https://browser.geekbench.com/processor-benchmarks ) the Intel Core i9-11900K ( https://browser.geekbench.com/processors/intel-core-i9-11900... ). 10,997 for Intel i9 vs 12,693 for M1 Max

Per core performance is the most interesting metric. Edit: for relative comparison between CPUs, per core metric is the most interesting unless you also account for heat, price and many other factors. Comparing a 56-core CPU with 10-core M1 is a meaningless comparison.

Not when building large software projects.

Where is the graphics test? The M1 Max versus an NVIDIA 3080 or similar?

I'm waiting to be corrected by someone who knows GPU architecture better than me but as far as I can tell the synthetic benchmarks can trade blows with a 3070 or 80 (mobile), but the actual gaming performance isn't going to be as rosy.

Also recall that very few games needing that performance actually work on MacOS
