Now that Apple has update all of its Intel Macs to M1 and M2 chips save one , we naturally assumed that theMac Prowould be experience an update sometime this yr , mayhap as shortly as a spring consequence or WWDC . But it may not be quite that straightforward .
While we do n’t expect Borchers to just blurt out the release date of the M2 Mac Pro , that ’s not a very convincing statement . Furthermore , after daily round of rumour that claim the Mac Pro wo n’t be as fast or expandible as people expected , you ’d think he would take the opportunity to reassure Mac Pro users that Apple is take its time on the Modern mannikin to ensure it surrender the power and functioning they take . But rather , he quickly change the subject .
“ We consider strongly that Apple silicon can power and transform experiences from the MacBook Air all the agency up to the Mac Studio , ” he said when inquire about the Mac Pro . That conspicuously and cautiously leaves out the Mac Pro , and also implies that Apple does n’t really know where or if the Mac Pro suit into its new Apple silicon lineup .
Apple is expected to update the Mac Pro with an overclocked M2 Ultra chip that has a 24 - core C.P.U. and 76 - core GPU . However , it ’s beenreportedthat it wo n’t have user - upgradeable random-access memory or GPUs , making it a very different car than what is presently volunteer .
Later in the consultation , Borchers state “ It ’s significant to reiterate that customers buy products , not chips , ” which seems to indicate the Mac Pro is at a crossroads . If Apple silicon ca n’t deliver the intersection people want , the chip wo n’t count , and Apple seems to be keenly cognizant of that conundrum as the wait for the new Mac Pro go along .
