Can the Apple M3 surpass the M2 Pro and Max?

Apple hopes to release its new M3 chip soon, which could potentially perform better than the M2 Max and M2 Pro despite having lower cores. Apple's M3 chip may have higher performance estimates in Geekbench 6 than M2 Max and M2 Pro. According to comprehensive calculations, the single-core score of the M3 chip is 3472 and the multi-core score is 13676.

M3 looks promising in rumored Geekbench 6 test

Single-core test shows M3 has 24% advantage compared to M2 Max. On the other hand, single-core performance is only 6% slower than the M2 Max. The point of these numbers is that the M3 is expected to have 8 cores, while the M2 Max has 12 cores. According to calculations, the M3 beat the M2 Pro by a 10% gap in both single-core and multi-core tests.

Yuryev pointed out that in terms of single-core performance, the M3 may be Apple's most powerful chip ever. One Twitter user expressed surprise at the result, to which Yuryev replied: "Yes, I think so. Technically beats the boxed M2 Pro model."

Yuryev is the co-host/writer of the Max Tech YouTube channel with over 1.1 million subscribers. However, he did not provide any screenshots or images regarding the rumors.

Unfortunately, we still don’t know the exact launch date of the company’s upcoming chipset series. The M3 and A 17 Bionic are expected to be Apple's first 3nm chips, so expectations from the community are high.

Over the past year, Apple has been working around the clock on its chipsets. The company first launched the M1 in 2020 and eventually launched the M1 in Pro, Max, and Ultra models in 2021 and 2022. Last year, Apple also launched its latest chipset series, the M2, which offered better performance. In January 2023, Apple launched its most powerful chips to date, the M2 Pro and M2 Max.
