The new generation of MacBook Pro is approaching the launch, and the processors under their carcasses are already able to arouse a lot of opinions, most positive.It is no secret to anyone that Apple M1 Pro and M1 Max are extremely powerful, and a new benchmark made in the Affinity tool shows us how the integrated graphics are faster than AMD Radeon W6900x, a video card with a price.$ 000.

The tests were performed by Andy Somerfield, developer of Affinity Photo image editor.It tells us on Twitter how the Apple processors have been optimized since the first version of the iPad program.And with the new processors we will find in the MacBook Pro, we have an unmatched performance so far.

Even if a single benchmark does not mean much, the team behind Affinity has developed your own test tool with which you can determine the performance of your Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer.These software runs best on fast graphic chips, high-band widths and high transfer rates, and the fastest such solution was tested by the development team was AMD Radeon Pro W6900x.That is, a video card that Apple sells in the form of a mpx module for Mac Pro at the price of 6.$ 000.

Radeon Pro W6900x has 32GB of GDDR6 memory offering a 512GB/s band width.But also with these specifications, the new graphic face integrated into the Apple M1 Max (32 cores and 400GB/s transfer) manages to overcome the solution from AMD.But this is not the only test in which the new face from Apple has shone, the GeekBench 5 tests showing that it offers up to 181% more power in the graphic area than the hardware we find in the current MacBook Pro model16 ".
