Mac: M2 Ultra - *VR (Part 2)

It’s the 5.1x faster than M1 model (6) bit that then mentions Blender.

I do think there’s a chance Blender benefits more than RedShift as older benches for RS v Blender had Cycles gaining more per core without HW RT.

Whatever it is M1 vs M3 GPU core on core… I hope that translates to M1 Max GPU core vs M3 Max GPU core speed up as well… it should.

I’m jumping from the M1 Max 10 core/32 GPU 64GB to… the black monster with 128GB so as soon as I get it and can also download or compile a copy of Blender 4 that has HW RT enabled I’ll be sure to contribute some benchmarks. I do have to wait a while. I have a 2019 VEGA 20 4GB MBP i9 that will not sell too. I’m pretty sure the 11x speedup will be accurate! Kinda no wonder it won’t sell, eh! Quite the leap in performance in a short time for Laptops.
