I was wondering now with the latest Apple silicon M3/M3 Pro/M3 Max chips, what the performance gains will be with the now supported Neat Video 5.6
Are there any significant performance gains on the M3 Max 16-Core CPU & 40-Core GPU, compared to the maxed out M1 and M2 Max versions?
Would like to see some test results, (both 1080p and 4K, with NeatBench test, or the Performance check inside NeatVideo)
..If someone is able to provide any results, would really appreciate it!

Wow, those are some significant gains for 1920x1080 over the M1 Max and even over the M2 Max there is a nice performance boost.
Putting it close to the M1/M2 Ultra Performance.
Did you by any chance also do a test with 4K (3840x2160) ..?
If you own Neat Video you can do that with the built-in Optimize tool (menu Tools > Preferences > Performance > Optimize ..select 3840x2160)
We have just posted an article about M3 family vs M1 and M2 families' performance.
If you have an M3 machine (not M3 Pro/Max), you can help us to add some missing data to that article. Please contact us by e-mail at support [at] neatvideo.com for that.
