It's all fun and games until big daddy 4090 gets involved and shows the multi-generational advantage Nvidia has over Apple |
Apple wins a lot due to how the RAM is integrated with the CPU and basically works like a giant last level cache... or 3D V-cache. And you can already see The GPU however isn't really boosted all that much by, working similarly to the gamecache on AMD GPUs, so mainly making sure it's not getting bottlenecked by bandwidth.
But what really boosts the Cinebench CPU scores are the huge re-order buffer (ROB, apparently the biggest ones in the chip industry, even beating server chips by a large amount) and especially Apple's big media engine, which both boost the cinebench result by a nice amount without having to increase clock speeds or increase the nominal IPC of the CPU itself. This however also means that the Cinebench results are not indicative for workloads that don't make use of the media engine, where it should then be quite a bit slower than current X86 CPUs.
