An update has been done for the Mac Studio featuring the M3 Ultra and M4 Max chip. The chip launched last year and was equipped in the 16-inch and 14-inch variations of the MacBook Pro. The M4 Max can be optimized up to a 40-core GPU and unified RAM of up to 128GB.
Benchmark results from Geekbench 6 suggest that the M4 Max chip is almost 75% faster compared to the M2 Max that was featured in the prior generation of the Mac Studio. The new M3 Ultra chip is equipped with 8 efficiency cores, 24 performance cores, and a 32-core CPU. Apple claims it will be 1.5x faster compared to the previous chip of the Mac Studio that featured a 24-core CPU- the M2 Ultra, and is the fastest chip ever for the Mac.
Pre-orders for the Mac Studio began on March 5th and the new device is set to be released on March 12, Wednesday, with a price of $3,999 for specs with the M3 Ultra and $1,999 for specs with the M4 Max chip.
