Apple introduces the new Mac Studio: a small size and superior performance

The Mac Studio is a pretty powerful piece of equipment, designed specifically for hard work.

Today Apple's "Peek Performance" has been held, an event in which the company has unveiled some new equipment that joins the family.

One of the ones that has interested people the most and that has attracted the most attention is the new Mac Studio. This is a really interesting and powerful team that offers a new proposal.

A few months ago, Apple introduced the Mac mini, a team of small dimensions and at a low price. This time we have a slightly bigger team, but with a beastly power.

Available in two versions

The equipment will be available in two versions.

This new equipment will be available in two versions, the main difference between them is in the processor. One of them includes the M1 Max as a processor, while the other includes the new M1 Ultra.

Surely it will be difficult for you to decide which is the best option for you, but do not worry, since we have some comparisons that could be quite useful.

Version with M1 Max

Next, we are going to compare this new equipment with other of the most popular Apple equipment.

  • Up to 2.5 times faster CPU performance than the fastest 27-inch iMac with a 10-core processor.

  • Up to 50 percent faster CPU performance than Mac Pro with a 16-core Xeon processor.

  • It also boasts up to 3.4 times more graphics performance than the 27-inch iMac. It is even up to 3 times faster than Mac Pro.

  • It's also up to 7.5 times faster than the 27-inch iMac and up to 3.7 times faster than the 16-core Mac Pro when transcoding video.

Version with the M1 Ultra

As we did with the previous version, we are also going to compare this team with others.

  • Up to 3.8 times faster CPU performance than the fastest 27-inch iMac with a 10-core processor.

  • Up to 90 percent faster CPU performance than Mac Pro with a 16-core Xeon processor.

  • Up to 60 percent faster CPU performance than the 28-core Mac Pro.

  • Graphics performance up to 4.5 times faster than the 27-inch iMac, and up to 80 percent faster than the fastest Mac graphics card currently available.

  • Up to 12 times faster than the 27-inch iMac and up to 5.6 times faster than the 28-core Mac Pro when transcoding video.

Features of the new Mac Studio

A team that has everything for hard work.

The technical power of Mac Studio is geared toward professionals in film, music, graphic design, and game development. It's a desktop capable of rendering huge 3D environments and playing 18 ProRes video streams, which means you can stream ProRes up to 5.6 times faster than a 28-core Mac Pro, making it a truly powerful.

Part of the high-end performance comes from Apple's new M1 Ultra chip : "the world's most powerful chip for a personal computer," says the press release. We think Apple may be right. Despite its processing power, the Mac Studio is only 7.7 inches wide and 3.7 inches tall. Maintains Apple's unique design language.

What is new is the large number of ports that Apple has introduced in the Mac Studio. While some of its laptops have lacked ports, the Mac Studio packs plenty, including four Thunderbolt 4 ports, a 10Gb ethernet port, two USB-A ports, HDMI, and a Pro audio jack. It's all you can get. need.

The first computer with the new M1 Ultra processor

The most powerful team that Apple has made so far.

Apple is getting serious in the field of processors, it already showed it with the M1, which quickly became one of the most desired processors.

On this occasion, we have to account for the M1 Ultra processor, which has plenty of power to move this new equipment. This processor has 20 cores, which makes it a beast.

Many people cataloged this team as a Mac mini vitamin, but this is something far from reality. This is a team that presents a totally different proposal. So they should not be related, since this is on a completely higher level.

What is the price of this equipment?

The price of these teams starts at $1,999.

One of the questions that you will ask yourself is the price of this equipment and as usual in a team of this type, it is not exactly cheap. So, if you want to have one of these in your home, you must be willing to invest a good amount.

The cost of this equipment will depend on the version you choose and these are the prices that are handled.

  • Mac Studio (M1 Max) : $1,999.

  • Mac Studio (M1 Ultra) : $3,999.

This is the base cost of these devices, however, there is a higher version, which includes the Mac Studio with an M1 Ultra processor and an 8 TB SSD that reaches $7,999.
