At the Apple Unleashed event, the company announced the
#M1Pro chip, which is Apple’s second effort at using its own silicon in its desktops and laptops. The
#M1 was impressive enough, but the new chip looks to push core counts and RAM capacity to the limit — plus give a solid boost to graphics power.
Rumors point to two versions of the M1 Pro: Both with 10 CPU cores, but one with 16 graphics cores and another with 32. Based on the performance of the seven to eight GPU cores in the M1 — depending on the model you choose — some estimate that the extra power can bring the M1 Pro to the level of a mobile RTX 3070 graphics card.
