"The GPU scales up the next-generation architecture introduced in M5 to an up-to-40-core GPU. With a Neural Accelerator in each GPU core and higher unified memory bandwidth, M5 Pro and M5 Max are over 4x the peak GPU compute for AI compared to the previous generation."
"Both chips feature an 18-core CPU, marking an upgrade from the 14-core configuration in the M4 Pro and the 16-core in the M4 Max. The CPU now features six super cores, which is Apple's term for its highest-performance cores, alongside 12 all-new performance cores. Collectively, the CPU boosts performance by up to 30% for pro workloads."
"M5 Pro is aimed at pro users such as data modelers, post-production sound designers, and STEM students who need strong CPU and GPU performance, along with large amounts of unified memory for complex projects and workloads. M5 Max is designed for pro users, such as 3D animators, app developers, and AI researchers who run workloads that demand maximum GPU compute."
Apple unveiled its M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, built on a new Fusion Architecture that combines two dies into a single system-on-chip. Both chips feature an 18-core CPU with six super cores and twelve performance cores, delivering up to 30% performance improvement for professional workloads. The GPU scales to 40 cores with over 4x peak GPU compute for AI compared to the previous generation. Graphics performance increased by up to 20%, with ray-tracing improvements reaching 35%. M5 Pro supports up to 64GB unified memory with 307GB/s bandwidth, while M5 Max offers up to 128GB with 614GB/s bandwidth. These chips target professional users including data modelers, sound designers, 3D animators, and AI researchers. MacBook Pro models with these chips are available for pre-order with March 11 availability.
