Designed around an innovative unified thermal core, the all-new Mac Pro
packs unprecedented performance into an aluminum enclosure that is just
9.9-inches tall and one-eighth the volume of the previous generation.
Mac Pro features 4-core, 6-core, 8-core or 12-core Intel Xeon processors
running at Turbo Boost speeds up to 3.9 GHz and two workstation-class
AMD FirePro GPUs that deliver up to eight times the graphics performance
of the previous generation Mac Pro.* PCIe-based flash storage delivers
sequential read speeds up to 10 times faster than conventional desktop
hard drives, and ECC DDR3 gives the new Mac Pro up to 60GBps of memory
bandwidth for seamlessly editing full-resolution 4K video while
simultaneously rendering effects in the background. With an incredible
six Thunderbolt 2 ports, each with up to 20Gbps of bandwidth per device,
the new Mac Pro completely redefines desktop expandability with support
for up to 36 high-performance peripherals, including the latest 4K
displays.
