Amazing Apple M1X Geekbench multi-core result more likely produced by an AMD Ryzen 9 5950X rather than a rumored 20-core Cupertino beast

[Redaktion]

An image taken from an alleged Geekbench run for a MacBook Pro18,1 system has supposedly revealed the multi-core power of the rumored Apple M1X chip. The score of 18,520 is over 140% higher than our results with an 8-core Apple M1. But it seems more likely shenanigans are to blame rather than an appearance by a 12-core Apple part or 20-core monster.

Oh my god. My wallet is ready to die. Please give me 16 inch Macbook Pro with Arm chip and without touchbar as soon as possible.

They can make it as powerful as they want, but you are still stuck on ARM and on Apple. In the end it's useless tech.

Except it'll destroy the x86 laptop and desktop market within the next 10 years.
