Apple officially announced the M2 Pro and M2 Max chipsets |
Today, Tuesday, Apple announced the (M2 Pro) and (M2 Max) chipsets, which are a new generation of so-called System-on-Chips (SoCs) designed to take Apple's exceptionally low-power silicon to the highest level.
The American technology giant said in a statement that the chip (M2 Pro) expands the architecture of the chip (M2) with a central processing unit (CPU) by up to 12 cores, and a graphics processing unit (GPU) by up to 12 cores. . GPU) up to 19 cores and memory. Unity is fast and comes in at 32GB in size.
The most powerful chip (M2 Max) builds on the capabilities of the chip (M2 Pro), offering up to 38 GPU cores and twice the bandwidth of 96GB of unified memory. According to Apple, its exceptional performance per watt makes it the most powerful and energy-efficient business laptop chip in the world. Both chips also feature custom improvements, including a faster 16-core Neural Engine and Apple's powerful Media Engine.
The M2 Pro chip brings professional-grade performance to the Mac mini for the first time, while the M2 Pro and M2 Max chipset boost the performance and capabilities of the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro. .
Apple said that the (M2 Pro) chip was developed using second-generation 5nm process technology and consists of 40 billion transistors, about 20% more than the (M1 Pro) chip and double the number of (M2) chips (M2 Max). Which contains 67 billion transistors.
