Apple has clearly rejected plans to make another Apple Silicon Macintosh Genius with a top of the line ‘M2 Outrageous’ chip highlighting 48 computer processor centers and 152 GPU centers. That is as per Imprint Gurman in the most recent version of his Power On pamphlet. Gurman likewise says the new Macintosh Ace will be fabricated in Vietnam, an obvious takeoff from the ‘Made in USA’ 2019 Intel Macintosh Ace.
The ‘Outrageous’ chip would have basically been a double M2 Ultra. In any case, intricacy and cost concerns appear to have racked those plans. Gurman actually says Apple is planning to send off another Macintosh Star with a M2 Ultra inside, with a plan that empowers expandability of certain parts like Smash and capacity.
Gurman says the M2 Outrageous chip was confronting creation intricacy difficulties and cost concerns. By not proceeding with it, it likewise opens up silicon fab TSMC to utilize the chip creation limit on higher-volume chips for standard Apple items.
The M2 Ultra chip will uphold up to 24 central processor centers, 76 GPU centers, and up to 192 GB of bound together Smash.
Albeit bounty an excess, it merits bringing up that 192 GB Slam will in any case be essentially not exactly the 1.5 TB of Smash upheld by the current-age 2019 Macintosh Expert. It’s additionally hazy how the 76-center GPU will pile up, as the ongoing Macintosh Genius can be hypothetically designed with 4 inward illustrations cards.
To relieve that deficiency, Gurman says the new Macintosh Ace will hold expandability choices for Slam, stockpiling and different parts, past what is remembered for the M2 Ultra chip itself.
the Mac Pro is expected to rely on a new-generation M2 Ultra chip (rather than the M1 Ultra) and will retain one of its hallmark features: easy expandability for additional memory, storage and other components.
Apple originally announced that the Apple Silicon transition would be complete within two years, which would have seen Apple Silicon versions of the entire Mac product line made available by November 2022. However, that deadline has since passed and the new Mac Pro has not come out. Neither has a high-end Apple Silicon Mac mini.
Gurman says that an M2 Pro Mac mini and the M2 Ultra Mac Pro are in active testing, and should launch in 2023. M2 Pro and M2 Max 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models should also arrive early in the new year. A new Pro Display XDR and second-generation Studio Display are also said to be in development.
A new M3-powered iMac is not expected until the end of 2023 at the earliest. An Apple Silicon iMac Pro is also being explored, although Gurman says that has faced development delays similar to the Mac Pro initiative.
