This year's fall releases from Apple are almost complete. After the iPhone, Apple Watch, AirPods, iPad and Apple TV, the new models of the MacBook Pro are now expected. These should come with either an M2 Pro or the M2 Max as Apple Silicon. Furthermore, there are currently some rumors about a new version of the Mac Pro. The professional computer from Apple, which was last updated in 2019, is to get special M2 versions (Ultra and Extreme), but will not be presented until 2023. Mark Gurman, a well-connected Bloomberg journalist, has nevertheless shared some values.

That should be the specs of the new MacBook Pro models
Like the 2021 models, the Apple MacBook Pro models, which are expected for October or November of this year, will again have a 14-inch and a 16-inch display. Nothing else should change in the external design either. However, it is meant to be an upgrade from the current one M1 Pro and M1 Max to the new chip generation M2 Pro and M2 Max, which are based on the M2 chip is based
According to Mark Gurman, the M2 Max is equipped with 12 CPU cores (8 performance and 4 efficiency cores), 38 GPU cores and up to 64 GB of RAM. These specs should be available on both the 14-inch and the 16-inch. We will only know more details when the devices are presented.
Apple Mac Pro with up to 256GB of RAM?
If you regularly visit the Sir Apfelot blog, then you have already read some rumors about the upcoming Mac Pro, the M2 Extreme chip and the possible specs (here and here). Up to 48 CPU cores, up to 160 GPU cores and 384 GB of RAM were discussed, but also 40 CPU cores, 128 GPU cores and up to 256 GB of RAM. Due to the more efficient architecture of the Apple silicon It seems that 1,5 TB of RAM should no longer be necessary for maximum performance, as was the case with the previous Mac Pro.
In the current "Power On" newsletter, Mark Gurman now gives these values for the possible values for the Mac Pro 2023: CPU options with 24 and 48 cores, GPU options with 76 and 152 cores and RAM options up to 256 GB . He also wants information about a Mac Pro that is currently being tested at Apple.
