Apple opened the veil of a completely new line of iMac Pro. These workstation-level computers are designed for professional users who need to solve the most resource-intensive tasks.

New iMac Pro - the fastest ever created Mac. They are equipped with magnificent 27-inch Retina 5K displays, Xeon processors with up to 18 processing cores, and a graphics system that produces up to 22 teraflops of power. IMac Pro in a gorgeous new gray gray package offers incredible opportunities for editing complex graphics, creating virtual reality content and 3D rendering in real time. IMac Pro shipments will start in December this year.

In addition to the new iMac Pro, Apple is working to create a fully updated Mac Pro next generation: it is designed for professional users who need the latest system with a modular design, the highest performance and professional screen of the highest resolution.

"We are pleased to present to developers and buyers the announcement of the new iMac Pro. It will be the fastest and most powerful of all Macs. And this will be the first in the history of iMac-level workstations, "said John Turnus, Apple's vice president of hardware development. "We redesigned the entire system and developed a completely new thermoregulation architecture to fit the exceptional performance in the thin, quiet, iMac package that our customers love so much. IMac Pro is a huge step forward. The world has never seen anything like this ".

The performance level of workstations in the iMac iMac Pro enclosure with Intel Xeon processors of the new generation, which have up to 18 processing cores, is able to cope with the most complex tasks. Thanks to flash drives and a completely new thermoregulation system, the slim one-piece case of iMac Pro is cooled by 80% more efficiently than before. The iMac Pro is not only powerful, but also very beautiful thanks to the new "gray space" color casing and the magnificent 27-inch Retina 5K display supporting up to 1 billion colors.

IMac Pro is equipped with a new graphics processor Radeon Pro Vega - the most advanced graphics processor in the history of Mac. The Vega graphics processor in iMac Pro is equipped with a new next generation computing core and has up to 16 GB of internal high-speed memory HBM2. Its speed when processing single-precision numbers reaches 11 teraflops. This is more than enough for 3D rendering in real time and creating realistic virtual reality content with a high frame rate. And when processing half-precision numbers, which is ideal for machine learning, iMac Pro produces an incredible 22 teraflops.



Fast drives and advanced I / O technologies iMac Pro supports SSDs up to 4 TB and up to 128 GB of ECC memory. And to four ports Thunderbolt 3 can connect up to two high-performance RAID arrays and two 5K monitors simultaneously. For the first time in the history of the Mac, the new iMac Pro is equipped with a 10 Gbps Ethernet port, through which it can transfer data up to 10 times faster.

The supply of iMac Pro is scheduled for December this year.
