Looking at the 2011 17″ MBP, we see a barely measurable 1.4% boost in performance when moving from 2.2 GHz to 2.3 (based on clock speed alone, you’d expect 4.5%). The 17″ 2.2 GHz quad-core i7 is nearly 14% faster than that, a bit more than you’d expect from a 10% improvement in clock speed.Īt the top, there’s a bit of an anomaly: While last year’s 2.8 GHz 15″ and 17″ models had virtually identical Speedmark scores, that’s not the case this year – unless the 2.3 GHz 15″ report is actually for the 2.2 GHz model. Running at a mere 2.0 GHz, the 15″ quad-core i7 measures 49% faster than last year’s fastest MacBook Pro, the 15″ 2.8 GHz dual-core i7 model. The new 15″ and 17″ models move from last year’s dual-core Mobile i5 and i7 to Intel’s new quad-core Mobile i5 and i7 chips, and there’s an equally huge increase in raw computing power. The new 2.3 GHz 13″ MBP scores 62% higher than last year’s top end 2.66 GHz Core 2 Duo model, and the 2.7 GHz dual-core i7 version is a whopping 86% faster! Making the move from the antiquated Core 2 Duo processor to the new Intel Mobile Core i5 makes a world of difference. It’s a mere 10 points ahead of the 13″ 2.3 GHz dual-core i5 MacBook Pro, which is a far less costly machine.

In terms of raw processing power, the 2010 15″ 2.8 GHz dual-core i7 MacBook Pro is the only one to outperform a 2011 model. Graphics and hard drive should have little, if any, effect. Geekbench is designed to measure performance of the CPU and memory.
Here’s a brief overview, broken down by display size: Geekbench Primate Labs posted the first Geekbench results last Thursday, and Macworld followed with its Speedmark 6.5 benchmark suite on Friday. The first benchmark results are in for the 2011 MacBook Pro line.
