Apple recently unveiled its new Apple Mac Pro and Pro Display XDR. And I must say the Mac Pro is an absolute beauty.
The hardware was introduced at Apple WWDC event that took place on the 3rd of June. This is first refresh since 2013. Jocularly, it looks like a grater from the front view.
The Mac Pro features workstation-class Xeon processors up to 28 cores, a high-performance six-channel memory system and 12 physical DIMM slots with a massive 1.5TB capacity, eight PCIe expansion slots which is twice that of the previous-generation Mac Pro tower and a graphics architecture featuring the world’s most powerful graphics card. It also provides over 300W of power along with a state-of-the-art thermal architecture to allow the processor to run fully unconstrained all the time.
It also introduces Apple Afterburner, a game-changing accelerator card that enables playback of three streams of 8K ProRes RAW video simultaneously.
The Pro Display XDR features a massive 32-inch Retina 6K display with gorgeous P3 wide and 10-bit color, an extreme 1,600 nits of peak brightness, an incredible 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio and a superwide viewing angle, all at a breakthrough price point.
Together, the new Mac Pro and Pro Display XDR are the most powerful tools Apple has ever put in the hands of pro customers.

According to Phil Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing, “We designed Mac Pro for users who require a modular system with extreme performance, expansion and configurability. With its powerful Xeon processors, massive memory capacity, groundbreaking GPU architecture, PCIe expansion, Afterburner accelerator card and jaw-dropping design, the new Mac Pro is a monster that will enable pros to do their life’s best work.”
“Pro Display XDR is the world’s best pro display and the perfect companion to the all-new Mac Pro. With Retina 6K resolution, gorgeous color, extreme brightness and contrast ratio, and a highly functional design, Pro Display XDR delivers the most comprehensive set of features ever offered on any display at this price point,” He adds.
The all-new Mac Pro starts at $5,999 and will be available to order in the fall. Pro Display XDR starts at $4,999, the Pro Stand is $999 and the VESA Mount Adapter is $199. All will be available to order in the fall.
