In the chart, shown below, Apple claimed the M1 Ultra offered more performance than an RTX 3090, while using 200w less power. The charts were reminiscent of the kind we see from tech companies that show "relative performance" and then vague numbers like "1.5x." Particularly notable were its comparisons to a "Highest-end discrete GPU," which it noted was the RTX 3090 in the footnotes. Notably missing was the actual tests it performed to arrive at its conclusions. Now, we hope you are sitting down, because it turns out its charts weren't telling the whole story.Īs we explained in our primer on the chip when it launched, when Apple displayed its performance charts it left out a few key details. When Apple unveiled it at its Peek Performance event recently, it included several charts to demonstrate its prowess. Its new flagship silicon fuses two M1 Max chips into a single component with "Ultrafusion" technology, and powers the new Mac Studio. Apple recently unveiled its fastest SoC yet: the M1 Ultra.
