Geekbench 5 sets Intel Core i3-8100 to the baseline score (1000) and measures performance based on whether the score is better than this. If the score is double, that is, “2000”, it means that it means “twice the performance of Intel Core i3-8100”.

Mac Pro running benchmark tests with Geekbench 5 is a Mac Pro purchased by general users, so at the time of writing the benchmark result of 28 core Intel Xeon W-3175X , the most expensive processor that Mac Pro can load do not exist.

Benchmark results are divided into single-core scores and multi-core scores. Geekbench scored the highest score as a benchmark result sent to Geekbench is the score of '1253' of the early 2019 model 27-inch iMac equipped with 8-core Intel Core i9-9900K . In addition, Macs sold from 2017 to 2019 are lined up, and the latest Mac Pro is ranked 11th from the top. Mac Pro with a 16-core Intel Xeon W-3245 with a suggested retail price of $ 1999 (about 220,000 yen) is '1104'. Furthermore, the score of the 12-core Intel Xeon W-3235 model is '1090', and the score of the 8-core Intel Xeon W-3223 model is '1008'. It seems that single-core performance is not much better than the standard Intel Core i3-8100.

On the other hand, multi-core scores are as follows. The 16-core Intel Xeon W-3245-equipped model has recorded an overwhelming score of “14285”, and the results are unmatched. In addition, 12 core Intel Xeon W-3235 loading model is '11599', 8 core Intel Xeon W-3223 loading model is '7606'.

About this benchmark result MacRumors of Apple related media, `` Mac Pro with 8-core Intel Xeon W-3223 is equipped with 8-core Intel Xeon W-2140B that appeared in late 2017 with single core and multicore scores I have lost to iMac Pro . ' Also, the 16-core Intel Xeon W-3245-equipped model has the same score as the 18-core Intel Xeon W-2191B-equipped iMac Pro that appeared in the second half of 2017.
