Apple's M5 Ultra and M6 chips show significant GPU performance gains in early Geekbench 7 benchmarks, with the M5 Ultra achieving 59% higher Metal scores than the M3 Ultra and the M6 showing 34% improvement over the M5. New Mac Studio and Mac mini models featuring these chips launch Tuesday.
Apple's M6 chip benchmark results surfaced ahead of next week's Mac mini launch, showing approximately 12% single-core and 27% multi-core CPU performance gains over the M5 chip. The M6 achieves the fastest single-threaded CPU performance across all Macs and PCs in Geekbench 7, validating Apple's performance claims.
