Apple announced M1 Pro And M1 Max, the new, very powerful processors that we will find in the latest models of MacBook Pro and which boast performances substantially superior to the already very fast M1.
Exactly one year after the presentation of the new Macs with M1 processor, the Cupertino house therefore takes a new, substantial step forward by increasing transistors, power but also energy efficiency of its CPUs.
The M1 Pro boasts 33.7 billion transistors and offers a power 70% higher than the M1 processor, which rises to 200% when it comes to GPU. Among its features stands out the presence of chips dedicated to specific functions, such as the management of Thunderbolt ports.
M1 Max instead contains the beauty of 57 billion transistors, with a generously sized chip that offers four times the power of an M1 and easily surpasses any high-end PC, especially considering the ratio between performance and energy efficiency.
Both CPUs have a production process a 5 nanometers. M1 Pro includes 10 processor cores and 16 GPU cores, while M1 Max includes 10 processor cores and even 32 GPU cores.
