Although we are introducing the third generation of chips Apple Silicon in the form of M3, M3 Pro and M3 Max The first performance tests are now available, having only been released early Tuesday morning. The very first one specifically relates to the base M3 chip with an 8-core CPU and 10-core GPU, which will be available in both the 24-inch iMac and the base 14-inch iMac. MacBookat Pro. So how is the new product, which was probably "run" through Geekbench 6 by one of the foreign journalists or YouTubers, who Apple already borrowed the news for tests, is it?

From the records available in the Geekbench database, it can be seen that in the CPU test, the M3 chip scored around 3000 points on a single core, while in the multi-core test it was 11 points. Compared to the M700 chip, the new product has actually improved by around 2%, as the M20 managed to reach 2 points on a single core and 2600 points on multiple cores in the same test. As for the M9700 chip, which is found in the first generation of the 1-inch iMac or MacBook Air and Pro, its score is around 2300 points on a single core and 8300 points on multiple cores. Compared to it, the M3 is about 35% faster, which is a fairly decent value that should already be noticeable in use. For this reason, it can be expected that once Apple next year MacBooky Air will update to the M3, many Apple fans will switch to them from the M1 models, although in addition to the processor, the changed design will also play an important role.
