This is Cinebench 2025, a cross platform application: https://imgur.com/a/yvpEpKF https://imgur.com/a/yvpEpKF You sure like that table, don't you? Trying to find the source of that blender numbers, I came across many reddit posts of you with that exact same table. Sadly those also don't have a source - the are not from the notebookcheck source.

The reason why I keep reposting this table is because people post incorrect statements about AMD/Apple so often, often with zero data backing. For Blender numbers, M4 Pro numbers came from Max Tech's review.[0] I don't remember where I got the Strix Halo numbers from. Could have been from another Youtube video or some old Notebookcheck article. Anyway, Blender has official GPU benchmark numbers now: M4 Pro: 2497 [1] Strix Halo: 1304 [2] So M4 Pro is roughly 90% faster in the latest Blender. The most likely reason for why Blender's official numbers favors M4 Pro even more is because of more recent optimizations.

  Weren't we comparing CPUs though? Those Blender benchmarks are for GPUs. Here is M4 Max CPU https://opendata.blender.org/devices/Apple%20M4%20Max/ https://opendata.blender.org/devices/Apple%20M4%20Max/ - median score 475 Ryzen MAX+ PRO 395 shows median score 448 (can't link because the site does not seem to cope well with + or / in product names) Resulting in M4 winning by 6%

    Weren't we comparing CPUs though? Those Blender benchmarks are for GPUs. Yes, but I was asked about Blender GPU. Blender CPU tasks are highly parallel. AMD's Ryzen Max 395 has great MT performance. It's generally 5-20% slower in CPU MT than the M4 Max depending on the application.
