Apple M2 Ultra SoC Isn’t Faster Than AMD & Intel Last Year Desktop CPUs, 50% Slower Than NVIDIA RTX 4080
Performance per watt will be Apples strong suit but when you consider just how much the M2 Ultra costs vs a PC with say a 13900K, the question then becomes how many years of extended use is going to take to make up the difference you are paying cause a base model Mac Studio with M2 Ultra starts at $4000 USD. You can get a 13900K + 4090 for $3000 USD quite easily but a 4090 is over 2x faster. Realistically, the only way these products make sense is if you need to use Apple specific software or need tons of memory for Ai since it's cheaper to spend $6600 USD on 192GB of Unified memory on M2 Ultra than $40,000 on a single Nvidia H100 with 80GB of vram.
