The first Geekbench 6 benchmark result for the new Mac Pro with an M2 Ultra chip has turned up online, providing a closer look at the M2 Ultra chip’s CPU performance in the pro-level desktop tower.
As you can see in the screenshot below, the Mac Pro, which can be had for $6,999, tallied a single-core score of 2,794 and a multi-core score of 21,453. That’s compared to 1,378 and 10,390, respectively for the highest-end Intel-based Mac Pro with a 28-core Xeon W processor, which went for $12,999. The results show that the new Mac Pro is over twice as fast as the fastest Intel-based model.
The scores are nearly identical to the results from earlier this week for the Mac Studio with the M2 Ultra chip which tallied single-core and multi-core scores of up to approximately 2,800 and 21,700, respectively. This means that users that don’t have a need or desire for PCI Express expansion could instead go for the Mac Studio with the M2 Ultra chip, which starts at $3,999.
