Apple M3 Max 14-Core vs Intel Core i5-13500T

Apple M3 Max 14-Core

► remove from comparison Apple Apple M3 Max 14-Core

The Apple M3 Max 14 core CPU is a system on a chip (SoC) from Apple for notebooks that was introduced towards the end of 2023. It integrates a new 14-core CPU with 10 performance cores with up to 4.06 GHz and 4 efficiency cores with 2.8 GHz. There is also a more powerful 16-core variant with 40 GPU cores.

Thanks to the higher clock rates and architectural improvements, the processor performance is also significantly better than the M2 Max in benchmarks and can keep up with the fastest mobile CPUs.

The M3 also integrates a new graphics card with dynamic caching, mesh shading and ray tracing acceleration via hardware. In the cheaper model, 30 of the chip's 40 cores are used and support up to 5 displays simultaneously (internal and 4 external).

GPU and CPU can jointly access the shared memory on the package (unified memory). This is available in 36 and 96 GB variants and offers 400 GB/s maximum bandwidth (512 bit bus).

The integrated 16-core Neural Engine has also been revised and now offers 18 TOPS peak performance (compared to 15.8 TOPS in the M2 but 35 TOPS in the new A17 Pro). The video engine now also supports AV1 decoding in hardware. H.264, HEVC and ProRes (RAW) can still be decoded and encoded. Like its predecessor, the Max chip offers two video engines and can therefore encode and decode two streams simultaneously.

Unfortunately, the integrated WLAN only continues to support WiFi 6E (no WiFi 7), unlike the small M3 SoC thunderbolt 4 is also supported (max 40 Gbit/s).

The chip is manufactured in the current 3nm process (N3B) at TSMC and contains 92 billion transistors (+37% vs. Apple M2 Max).

Intel Core i5-13500T

► remove from comparison

Der Intel Core i5-13500T ist ein schneller und sehr sparsamer Desktop-Prozessor auf Basis der Raptor-Lake-Architektur, die bereits im Oktober 2022 vorgestellt wurde. Der Prozessor bietet einen Basistakt von 2,5 GHz und erreicht bis zu 4,6 GHz im Turbo. Die hybride CPU-Architektur, welche mit Alder-Lake eingeführt wurde, kommt auch den Raptor-Lake-Prozessoren zugute. Der Namenszusatz T steht hierbei für ein besonders sparsames CPU-Modell und mit einer TDP von nur 35 Watt (PL1 = 35 Watt) sind diese Prozessoren für kleine, kompakte Systeme bestens geeignet.

Performance

Die geringe Leistungsaufnahme sorgt schlussendlich für eine etwas geringere Leistung im Vergleich zum Intel Core i5-13500. Je nachdem, wie das PL2 (92 Watt) definiert ist, kann es bei der Multi-Core-Leistung spürbare Unterschiede geben. Im Vergleich zum Intel Core i5-12500T ist der Intel Core i5-13500T aufgrund der höheren Anzahl an physischen Rencheneinheiten überlegen.

Grafikeinheit

Wie auch der Intel Core i5-12500T bietet der Intel Core i5-13500T eine integrierte Grafikeinheit. Als Basis dient weiterhin die Intel Iris Xe-Architektur. Rein leistungstechnisch hat sich bei der neuen Intel UHD Graphics 770 aber nicht viel verändert. Die iGPU des Intel Core i5-13500T taktet zudem 100 MHz höher, was aber keinen spürbaren Unterschied im Alltag ergibt.

Leistungsaufnahme

Die TDP des Intel Core i5-13500T beläuft sich auf 35 Watt, mit der Option, diese im Turbo auf bis zu 92 Watt zu erhöhen. Gegenüber dem Intel Core i5-12500T (PL2 = 74 Watt) steigt der maximal mögliche Energiebedarf etwas an.
