Arm Mali G1- Ultra MC12

ARM Mali-G1 Ultra MC12

The ARM Mali G1-Ultra MC12 (MP12) is a high-end GPU for smartphones and tablets, which can be found in this form for the first time in the Mediatek Dimensity 9500. It uses 12 cores and is based on the 5th generation GPU architecture. The Ultra variants always support ray tracing (2nd generation) and, according to ARM, should offer ray tracing performance that is twice as fast as its predecessor (Immortalis-G925).

Gaming performance is said to be 20% higher on average, as is the AI performance of the GPU. Compared to the fast Adreno 840, the G1-Ultra MC12 can easily outperform it in our synthetic tests.
