Apple's 18-core M5 Max destroys 96-core Ryzen Threadripper Pro 9995WX in Geekbench — GPU performance is much less impressive

Apple's new 18-core M5 Max processor excels in both single-thread and multi-thread workloads, surpassing even the 96-core AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 9995WX in Geekbench 6 benchmarks. The M5 Max features enhanced CPU cores and a revamped memory subsystem, offering superior performance improvements over its predecessor, the M4 Max. However, in terms of GPU performance, the M5 Max's integrated GPU falls short compared to high-end discrete graphics cards like the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090. Despite this, the M5 Max's GPU still outperforms previous Apple models and some non-Apple GPUs, showcasing significant advancements in integrated graphics technology.
