Concerning the Mac Studio M1 Ultra, how much more of a graphics/performance boost will the 64-core GPU have over the 48-core GPU? Assume the Logic session is large, approaching 100 tracks all with many individual regions, 3 displays, and video playback.
Thanks.

Logic does not do 3D processing, so I doubt GPU will have any effect on it. A good multichannel audio interface, utilization of sub-mixes and use of VCA groups helps a lot. It spreads out the load across the cores and threads. I work with projects of 80 to 120 tracks running on 2016 MacBook a single 5k LG display and a multichannel RME Fireface UFX+ Audio Interface. CPU is at 25%. As for three displays setup, well, perhaps that's where an extra GPU horsepower might come useful. Make sure your plugins are compatible with M1 before switching, or update / replace your plugins.
Don't expect M1 / Logic magic for a while...... there's a long thread on performance here:
