Quick/Comparisons
The Apple M3 Ultra takes the lead in gaming due to its strong single-core performance and high iGPU score of 99. Although the Intel Core i9 13900KF has excellent single-core performance, it lacks an iGPU.
The Apple M3 Ultra excels in creative workloads with a perfect score of 100, thanks to its strong multi-threaded throughput and high memory score of 100. The Intel Core i9 13900KF's lower score of 83 is not enough to compete.
The Apple M3 Ultra leads in power efficiency with a score of 85, thanks to its efficient architecture and high efficiency score. The Intel Core i9 13900KF's lower score of 53 indicates a significant power consumption disadvantage.
