The M1 Ultra, remember, is basically two M1 Max chips with much better cooling. With the 12th gen Core i9-12900K scoring 2,001, that gives the Intel CPU an 11 percent win over the leaked M1 Ultra ...

Apple Silicon Face-Off: M1 Ultra and M1 Max take on high-end PC juggernauts Mac vs PC, with Core i9 12900K and RTX 3090 in the mix.

The M1 Ultra fell behind the Core i9-12900K in single-core performance, returning a 14% lower score, but it outperformed Intel by 20% in multi-threaded tasks.

Apple announced the Apple M1 Ultra chip on Tuesday, doubling the performance of the M1 Max. It looks like the performance of this new chip will be incredible.

Apple claims the M1 Ultra offers a 90 percent multi-threaded performance advantage over Intel's top dog in the consumer space, the Core i9-12900K.

The M1 Ultra also beats the Core i9-12900K's multi-threaded score (17,204) by 40%, though Intel's chip is the winner when it comes to single-threaded performance (1,997).

With the M1 Ultra, Apple will trade blows with performance PC hardware that uses hundreds of watts of power while consuming way less than 100 watts.

Now Apple's M1 Ultra chip isn't a game-changer in the sense of changing games, at all, really. You can run games on an Apple machine, of course, but that's not what this GPU is in any way built to ...

That’s why Apple chose to combine two M1 Mac chips in the M1 Ultra. “M1 Ultra is another game-changer for Apple silicon that once again will shock the PC industry,” Srouji said.

Apple also included a graph showing the raw CPU performance of the M1 Ultra against the Intel Core i9-12900K, which has a similarly-built CPU.

Apple just announced its last SoC in the Apple M1 chip family, the M1 Ultra. Apple M1 Ultra comes with a 20-core CPU and a 64-core GPU and is first available on the all-new Mac Studio.

Apple chose to compare the M1 Ultra performance against Intel's Core i9-12900K and Nvidia's RTX 3090, two of the fastest and most power-hungry consumer parts in the desktop space at the moment.
