16 inch David versus 18 inch Goliath. Can Apple's $4,399 M5 Max MacBook Pro take down the world's fastest Windows laptop, the $11,238 Dell Pro Max 18 Plus? In this video, we're going to find out because I'm running all of our performance tests. And here you can see the specs on the screen. This thing is obviously a workstation beast with a lot of high-end commercial grade components, like 128 gigs of CAM2 memory and the RTX Pro 5000 GPU. By the way, it's spec for spec identical to the RTX 5090 laptop. It also has the best Intel CPU, so let's see if the M5 Max can compete. Let's test the SSDs. We have the Crystal Disk Mark and Amorphous running right here. They both have two terabyte SSDs, ultra fast. Apple is now forcing you to get two terabytes if you want the M5 Max, which is making it more expensive. $4,399, forty four hundred. Things two and a half times more expensive. And even if you pay a thousand bucks for 128 gigs of matching RAM, it's still two times less expensive than this machine. Like the Dell's SSD is 24% faster. The read speeds, I mean 16,000 read in insane. As the right, the M5 Max is almost twice as fast. The nice thing about the Dell is that you have a ton of extra ports that the M5 Max does not have. It also has two Thunderbolt 5 ports. Well, the M5 Max has three of them. And you can tell this is a super thick laptop. Like twice as thick and and the footprint is a lot larger. The cooling system must be insane. The display is also massive. I mean 18 inches, you could do a lot of multitasking on this. And now jumping into GPU performance with Geekbench 6. You can see, we have the M5 Max here with 4.60 gigahertz. This has 48 gigs of RAM. We have the Core Ultra 9 285HX, the fastest Intel chip on a laptop. So let's run the CPU benchmark. And obviously, I'm going to keep them plugged in because if you unplug this, it's gonna start losing performance, especially for the graphics. And there you go, the scores. As far as single core, I mean 4,337 on the M5 Max. That's the best on any consumer chip ever made. And the multicore is almost 30k. I mean, that's 41% faster than the multicore on this Intel chip. I mean, we need that new chip from Intel ASAP. And now let's test browsing performance with speedometer 3.1. Yes, this is a workstation. Gonna be browsing the web all the time. So let's see. And it looks like the M5 Max is 36% or snappier for overall web browsing. Moving on to some web design using Figma. This is a project provided to us by 500 Designs, one of the best design and marketing agencies in the US. We run this test by exporting 12 of these high quality pages. Alright, would you look at that? Despite the single lot slower on the Dell Pro, we actually got 22 seconds compared to a minute and 21. So practically the same performance for this. Very impressive. And now let's do some AI testing with Geekbench AI. I'm doing the GPU Core ML on the M5 Max because they have added AI accelerators this time. And on the Dell Pro Max, I had to choose ONNX, DirectML to be able to select the RTX Pro 5000, OpenVINO for some reason only let me select the integrated. So let's run this AI test. Alright, and this is weird. For some reason, the quanta score is a lot lower on the Dell Pro Max. So let's just look at the half precision. 53,000. That's about 21% faster at performance for this RTX Pro 5000. Into graphics. Let's do Geekbench 6's graphics test. On the M5 Max and Vulcan on the Dell. Once again, this RTX Pro 5000 Blackwell GPU is essentially identical to the RTX 5090 laptop. It's essentially just a much more expensive commercial grade GPU. Alright guys, this does not look correct. 21,600 Vulcan compared to 228. Okay, let's actually let's run the OpenCL. Alright, that is more like it. 246,000 on the RTX Pro 5000. That makes it 8% faster than the new 40 core M5 Max MacBook Pro. That is just insane. It's crazy that Apple has improved their GPU that much.
