I'm seeing a bunch of new runs. runs

I'm seeing the 10 core Pro scores (single and multi core) neck and neck. Pro 8 core single core on par with both of the others.

Am I missing something? Why would the max and pro be throwing the same scores there?

The Pro and Max have the same CPU with the exception of the 8 core variant.

One core of the 8 core Pro is the same as one core of the 10 core Pro or Max, why would the single core scores be different?

I'm slow. That makes sense. I guess the only difference between pro and max is the memory bandwidth and GPU, which I guess is not affecting those benchmarks...

Pretty much, yeah. The bandwidth won't have much impact on CPU benchmarks as you'll struggle to find any way to get a CPU to need that much bandwidth. So it's mainly in the GPU that the Pro and Max differences lie, bar the 8 core Pro option :)
