2013 mac pro processor upgrade 10 core vs 12 core

The M1 Ultra can be configured with up to 128GB unified memory – according to Apple the most powerful PC graphics cards max out at 48GB. Apple claims to offer “4x the bandwidth of the leading multi-chip interconnect technology” and explains that the M1 Ultra behaves like, and is recognised by software, as one chip.Īpple claims that its 64-core GPU delivers faster performance than the highest-end PC GPU available – all while using 200 fewer watts of power. Apple achieves this using UltraFusion architecture to connect the two M1 Max chips to avoid trade-offs such as increased latency, reduced bandwidth, and increased power consumption. The M1 Ultra is essentially two M1 Mac chips, so it can offer a 20-core CPU and up to 64-core GPU.

In June 2020 Apple announced that it would transition Mac from Intel to its “world-class custom silicon.” This process began with Apple’s M1 processor, which was introduced in November 2020 and it features inside these Macs:
