Optimized Mac Pro on the horizon?
There are signs that Apple may also offer an improved version of the Mac Pro with new high-performance chips, similar to Mac Studio. However, the latest report did not address this aspect.
Advanced Manufacturing
Interestingly, the latest report reveals that the M3 Ultra chip will be manufactured using the improved 3nm (N3E) manufacturing technology offered by Taiwan's Semiconductor Manufacturer (TSMC). The technology mirrors the anticipated A18 chip in the iPhone 16 later this year, which represents the latest chip production globally.
Ultra Fusion Technology
So far, no details about Apple's M3 Ultra chip design mechanism have been revealed. Apple typically uses UltraFusion technology, combining two "Max" chips using a unique fusion architecture, providing customers with massive computing power beyond traditional PCs.
