Intel's strongest chip Alder Lake Core i9 and Apple M1 Max benchmark results released!

Recently, the first batch of products equipped with Intel's 12th-generation Core i9 processor has been officially launched. Intel has previously claimed that the performance of its new-generation Core i9 processor can exceed Apple's current most powerful M1 Max chip. ,

The foreign media Macworld compared the actual performance of the MSI GE76 with that of the Apple M1 Max (16-inch MacBook Pro).

According to the test, the Geekbench 5 multi-core score of the GE76 notebook equipped with the Core i9-12900HK processor is 12707, and the single-core score is 1838; while the 16-inch MacBook Pro equipped with the Apple M1 Max chip has a multi-core score of 12244, and the single-core score is 12244. for 1774.

comparison, this means that the multi-core performance of the 161fa08d2ac392 Core i9-12900HK processor is 4% higher than that of the M1 Max, and the single-core performance is 3.5% ​.

However, when running the Cinebench R23 CPU test, the Core i9-12900HK consumes 100W and peaks at 140W, compared to about 39.7W for the 16-inch MacBook Pro running the same test.

The huge difference in power consumption also leads to different battery life performance of the two products​: when playing offline video, the MSI GE76 Raider only has about 6 hours of battery life, while the MacBook Pro has reached about 17 hours​ .

In addition, the retail price of this Intel test device is $3,999, which is about 1.5 times the price of the 14-inch MacBook Pro (M1 Max chip).
