Geekbench from Primate Labs is the benchmark many people reach for when they want one answer to a simple question. How fast is this Mac? You run the test, wait a few minutes, and get scores for your processor and graphics. The workloads are modelled on real tasks like processing photos, encoding media and handling documents, so the numbers mean more than a purely synthetic test would.

Key Features

  • CPU benchmark reports single core and multi core performance scores
  • GPU benchmark tests graphics power through the Metal API on Mac
  • Workloads mirror real tasks such as media encoding and image work
  • Results can be uploaded and compared in the Geekbench Browser
  • The same tests run on Windows, Linux, iOS and Android devices

How to Download

  1. Download from the official site to get the Mac build.
  2. Open the downloaded archive and move Geekbench to your Applications folder.
  3. Close heavy apps, launch Geekbench and run the CPU or GPU benchmark.

System Requirements

Geekbench 7 for macOS needs a current macOS release, as listed on the official download page, and runs on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs. Close other demanding apps while testing so your scores reflect the machine itself.

FAQs

What does a Geekbench score actually tell me?

It gives you a standard way to compare processing power between machines. Higher scores mean faster performance in the tested workloads, though real apps also depend on memory and storage.

Can I compare my Mac with a phone?

Yes. Geekbench uses the same style of tests across platforms, and the online Browser holds results from Macs, PCs, phones and tablets for easy comparison.

Is Geekbench free?

The standard version is free for personal use according to Primate Labs. A Pro version adds automation and other tools aimed at professional testers and reviewers.
