Blender Benchmark for Apple M3

Blender Benchmark for Apple M3

This review is for Apple Mac user who are using M3 processor with MacBook Pro, MacBook Air. When we are using 3D software like as Blender, the computer hardware, CPU and GPU, is important factor to show the performance for graphics calculation. Apple M3 is a chip processing as CPU and CPU.

Blender Benchmark is a data base showing the performance about the different CPU and CPU. Below is show how good the performance for using Blender 4.1 with Apple M3 chips is. This is only focus on the performance on CPU and GPU. If you like to compare with the CPU and GPU, we can find some data on official website - Blender Benchmark.

Just a quick compare the other popular GPU, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 can gives score 5484.27 ; as NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 can gives score 11304.24. It seems that NVIDIA GeForce GPUs are much better than Apple M3 chip when we use Blender Benchmark to check the GPU performance.

Final Thought


This is quick comparison for using Apple M3 chips with Blender. Apple M3 meets basic requirements to create 3D in Blender, we can use this chip to make basic 3D scene. If you are going to build a complex 3D scene, and need a fast render speed in Blender, Apple M3 may not be your best choice. Inter Core i9 should be better choice for CPU, and NVIDIA GeForce RTX series should be a better choice for GPU.
