Review unit is the 14-core CPU, 32-core GPU, 36 GB model with a 1 TB SSD running macOS Sequoia 15.3.2. Only the SSD differs from this product. The text names Cinebench 2024 and the chart title says R23, but the scores match Cinebench 2024. Single-thread 186, multi-thread 1811. The Mac Studio M4 Max has no selectable power mode in macOS Energy settings (Mac Otakara), so this is the only profile.
