M4 Pro Chip Benchmark Results Reveal Chip’s Performance Better Than Highest-End M2 Ultra Pro

The first Geekbench 6 benchmark results for the M4 Pro chip shows impressive results, showing that the highest-end M4 Pro chip’s peak multi-core CPU performance is better than the highest-end M2 Ultra chip.

The comparison of the results (first published by MacRumors):

• 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)

Based on these results, the M4 Pro is now the fastest Apple silicon chip ever in the Geekbench 6 database. Of course, it will lose the top spot as soon as results are available for the M4 Max chip with a 16-core CPU. We’ll share the M4 Max results once they are available.

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)

All of Apple’s new M4-powered Macs launch on Friday, November 8.
