Having a higher amount of memory can help performance.) If you think 8GB isn’t enough, you have the option to upgrade to a maximum of 16GB of memory for an additional fee. (If you don’t know, memory or RAM is used by a computer when it is doing work and processing data. M1: Memory and storageĪll four of these Macs have 8GB of “unified memory” in their standard configurations. The 13-inch MacBook Pro’s performance is very close to the Mac mini, so it’s a worthy contender as well, but if you want the best price-to-performance ratio, the Mac mini is the way to go. If you can wait, hold off until results from the 24-inch iMac are in, but we expect they’ll be similar. Our take: If all you care about is getting the top-performing M1 Mac, then the Mac mini is for you. Geekbench 5 Compute GPU benchmark Mac model We’ll update the performance chart with iMac data as soon as possible. We expect the $1,299 iMac’s 7-core GPU to be slightly faster than the MacBook Air’s 7-core GPU, while the iMac’s 8-core GPU performance could be similar to the Mac mini. The 24-inch iMac has three standard configurations, starting with the low-end $1,299 model that has a 7-core GPU, and the $1,499 and $1,699 models with an 8-core GPU. The difference is 9 percent between the two MacBook Air models, and higher compared to the MacBook Pro and Mac mini, so if your work is graphic-heavy, consider spending a little more on the 8-core model.
The $999 MacBook Air and the $1,299 iMac have a 7-core GPU that’s slower than the other M1 Macs, but you probably won’t notice a difference in general everyday use.
