Mac Studio

Technological innovation races forward at breakneck speed, and Apple isn't slowing down. The new Mac Studio has been dubbed the "most powerful Mac ever." The compact desktop powerhouse comes with M4 Max and M3 Ultra chips to increase performance even further.
PERFORMANCE LEAP
The new Mac Studio delivers unprecedented performance for professionals and creatives alike. With Thunderbolt 5 connectivity, up to 512GB of unified memory, and a staggering 16TB SSD option, the Mac Studio redefines what a desktop computer can achieve, all while maintaining its sleek, quiet design. At the heart of the new Mac Studio are two cutting-edge chips: the M4 Max and the M3 Ultra. These silicon marvels build on Apple’s legacy of integrating CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine into a unified architecture, pushing further boundaries. The M4 Max is tailored for professionals who need exceptional singlethreaded and multithreaded performance. Featuring an up to 16-core CPU and a 40core GPU, it boasts the world’s fastest CPU core and over half a terabyte per second of unified memory bandwidth. This translates to real-world gains: it’s up to 3.5 times faster than the previous Mac Studio with M1 Max and 6.1 times faster than the most potent Intel-based 27-inch iMac. For video editors, the M4 Max’s Media Engine, with two ProRes accelerators, easily handles multiple 4K ProRes streams. Photographers will appreciate up to 1.6x faster image processing in Photoshop, while developers compiling code in Xcode can expect up to build times 2.1x faster.
