From PC Mag: Apple has finally refreshed its Mac Pro with a huge overhaul that ditches the canister look for a ridiculously over-powered desktop tower.
The new model can be outfitted with up to a 28-core Intel Xeon processor running on 300 watts, and what Apple says is the world's most powerful graphics card from AMD, which can achieve a whooping 58 teraflops and 128GB of video memory using dual Radeon Pro Vega II chips.
On the memory front, it can also be configured with up to 1.5TB of DDR4 RAM through 12 dual in-line memory slots.
The new model will arrive this fall starting at $5,999, running an 8-core Intel Xeon W processer, 32GB of RAM, a Radeon Pro 580X processor and 256GB SSD. No mention was made of what the most expensive setup will cost. But buyers can also configure the hardware to run as a server rack as well. (You can find full specs on Apple.com.)
In addition, Apple created a "6K" 32-inch monitor for the new Mac Pro. Called the "Pro Display XDR," the monitor has a 6,016-by-3,384-pixel resolution for a total of 20 million pixels, which the company says can deliver true high-dynamic range of colors at 1,000 nits.
