The new Apple Mac Pro 2022 is most likely going to be a powerhouse of a workstation, courtesy of the M1 Ultra. Mac Pro 2022: Specs and performance Mac Pro 2022: Specs and performance How configurable the new Mac Pro 2022 will be in light of this remains to be seen. The great mystery about a 2022 Mac Pro is that Apple is looking to move away from third-party silicon entirely, specifically Intel Xeon CPUs and AMD Radeon GPUs. And that's not even considering the displays and additional peripherals needed to use the workstation.

It doesn't matter how much VC funding your startup or studio has, that is a lot of money. You also have the option of installing an Apple Afterburner card for faster decoding of ProRes and ProRes RAW video codecs in supported applications like Final Cut X, adding $2,000/£2,000/AU$3,000.Īll of this means that the cheapest Mac Pro 2019 model will run you $5,999/£5,499/AU$9,999, while the most expensive configuration will cost you an eye-watering $53,799/£53,299/AU$81,699. The six storage options range from a 512GB SSD all the way up to an 8TB SSD. The Mac Pro 2019, meanwhile, had a far more extensive list of configuration options from an 8-core Intel Xeon to a 24-core Intel processor, from 32GB up to a staggering 1.5TB of DDR4 ECC memory, and ten different options for AMD Radeon graphics cards, ranging from a Radeon Pro W5500X with 8GB GDDR6 VRAM to two Radeon Pro W6900X graphics cards with 32GB of GDDR6 VRAM each. Most consumer and enterprise Mac devices have several configuration options, but these are mostly limited to a choice of processor-step ( Apple M1 Pro vs M1 Max in the MacBook Pro 14-inch (2021) and MacBook Pro 16-inch (2021), for example, with different options for GPU core counts in some cases), the amount of RAM, and the amount of storage. Part of the difficulty with pricing out the Mac Pro is that unlike most other Apple devices, the Mac Pro is far more modular than your typical Mac. We don't know where Apple will price the new Mac Pro 2022, but we definitely expect it to start somewhere in the $6,000/£6,000/AU$9,000 range and scale up from there as you increase the amount of RAM, storage, with an option (most likely) to increase the GPU core count.
