The new Apple M3 Pro processor showed a slight edge over last year’s M2 Pro chip. In this respect reports The MacRumors publication refers to the first results of testing the new product in the Geekbench 6 test.
Test results of one of the new M3 Pro-based MacBooks appeared in Geekbench 6 records. In single-core mode, the chip scored 3035 points, which is 14% more than the M2 Pro. At the same time, the result of the new processor in multi-core mode was 15173 points. As MacRumors wrote, the increase was only 6%.
The M2 Pro and M3 Pro have 12 cores, but the M3 Pro only has six high-performance cores and six efficient cores; The M2 Pro, on the other hand, has eight high-performance cores and four efficient cores. In other words, although the M3 Pro is produced with a 3-nanometer process, the performance gains obtained from the chip decrease because it has two fewer performance cores.
“The M3 Pro also has 25% less memory bandwidth and one graphics core compared to the M2 Pro,” MacRumors added.
