That’s not what it says. Actual quote:
> The 12-core CPU design has six performance cores and six efficiency cores, offering single-threaded performance that is up to 30 percent faster than M1 Pro.
- sigmoid10 3y agoOk, so then the M3 pro is up to 1.3/1.2=~8% faster than the M2 pro? I can see why they wouldn't use that for marketing.
- fkyoureadthedoc 3y agoDepends who they are marketing to I think is the point. If the biggest group of potential buyers are not M2 users, then it makes sense not to market to them directly with these stats. I've got an M1 Max 64GB and I'm not even tempted to upgrade yet, maybe they'll still be comparing to M1 when the M10 comes out though.
- sigmoid10 3y agoI'm also far from replacing my M1. But if someone from an older generation of Intel Macs considers upgrading the marketing is off as well.
- polishTar 3y agoI was referring to the graphic they showed during the announcement that verbatim said the CPU was "up to 20% faster than M1 Pro". https://images.macrumors.com/t/wMtonfH5PZT9yjQhYNv0uHbpIlM=/800x0/article-new/2023/10/m3-pro-soc.jpg?lossy https://images.macrumors.com/t/wMtonfH5PZT9yjQhYNv0uHbpIlM=/...
