Whoa! The M4 Pro chip has just blown us away with its early Geekbench 6 benchmark results. Apple’s latest silicon powerhouse is even outperforming the mighty M2 Ultra in peak multi-core CPU performance!
The early Geekbench 6 benchmarks:
• Mac mini with M4 Pro (14-core CPU): 22,094 multi-core score (average of 11 results)
• Mac Studio with M2 Ultra (24-core CPU): 21,351 (average of more than 600 results)
Joe Rossignol for MacRumors:
Based on these results, the M4 Pro now holds the record of being the fastest Apple silicon chip ever in the Geekbench 6 database. Of course, it will soon be surpassed by the M4 Max chip with a 16-core CPU, but no results are available for that chip as of writing.
As for year-over-year performance improvements, the M4 Pro is up to 45% faster than the highest-end M3 Pro chip in terms of multi-core CPU performance, based on the Geekbench 6 results that are available so far.
Here is a comparison of the results:
• Mac mini with M4 Pro (14-core CPU): 22,094 multi-core score (average of 11 results)
• 14-inch MacBook Pro with M3 Pro (12-core CPU): 15,282 (average of more than 4,000 results)
