  • A new Mac Pro is coming, confirms Apple exec

    mjtomlin said:

    Although, as I said in another post... The Mac Pro is a completely different system from what Apple has released with their M-series SoCs so far. So I still maintain the Mac Pro will remain on that path and forgo the SoC centric design all the other systems have. Instead it'll have a completely different set of disparate chips: X-series CPU, G-series GPU, and a new T3 SoC.

    That is what I've always thought.  If Apple doesn't design a new ARM chip series for the Mac Pro that exceeds the limitations of the SoC M-series, there's really no reason at all to even make a new Mac Pro.  The dumb rumors about an M2 Ultra Mac Pro make no sense.  I think that is more likely to be misinterpreted info related to an upcoming M2 Mac Studio refresh.

    There might be a new Mac Pro coming too, but it has to do a lot better than M2 Ultra... and it probably isn't coming as soon as people believe.

    What I am getting from the quotes in the article is that Mark Gurman pulled his usual "rumors" out of his ass and that we should be expecting an M2 Ultra Mac Studio, not a Mac Pro.  And I'd be quite happy with that.

    Maybe Apple will make an ASi Mac Pro down the road when they figure out a way to make something significantly more powerful than a Mac Studio Ultra, or maybe they won't.
