OpenCL and OpenGL have been deprecated in favor of Metal. Geekbench also has a Metal compute benchmark.

Is there a metal benchmark? This is the score I’ve been most interested in.

Nay, there isn't one for the new M1 Max, but FWIW it's pretty comparable, but OpenCL is a bit faster than Metal.

* MacBook Pro (16-inch Late 2019) - Metal https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/compute/3139776 [31,937 metal score]

* MacBook Pro (16-inch Late 2019) - OpenCL https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/compute/3139756 [33,280 OpenCL score]

Huh. I was expecting it to be over 80k. This is the blackmagic pro Vega 56 egpu metal score.

How to compare Metal vs non-mac hardware then?
