Mac Studio (M1 Ultra – Full)

🔥 Another good deal from iPower Resale. Get a brand new in the box full M1 Ultra with 64 Core GPU, 64 GB RAM, and 1 TB SSD for $2,399 while supplies last.

The Bang for the Buck score of ~17.82 (as of March 24, 2025) been upgraded to reflect the Market Price as such.

So, where does the M1 Ultra (with 32 Core GPU) roughly fit in compared to newer models? Below, you can see that it’s faster than M2 Max or lower Macs. But then both the M3 Max  M4 Pro are almost surprisingly close (~13% to 15% overall  slower) to it. So you’ll have to decide if you want a newer machine or willing to save some $ with an older chip (but have the bragging rights of having an Ultra). Decisions, decisions, decisions.
