Design and Specs of the Mac Pro 2019
The design of the Mac Pro 2019 has been radically changed, it looks much more like the 1st generation than the second (2013) with a cylindrical shape.
The Mac Pro 2019 is made of stainless steel, with an aluminum casing. It draws its power from 28-core Xeon processors boosted by 1,5 TB memory, eight PCIe expansion slots and a graphics architecture, which incorporates the most powerful graphics card in the world. Yes, just that...
According to Apple CEO Tim Cook, it's the most configurable and expandable Mac ever thanks to its modular design.
This modularity allows users to create a Mac Pro that meets high demands, since they can add the components they need.
Also, the expansion possibilities will be multiple thanks to the 8 PCI Express expansion slots (double the previous generation) and the 64 PCI Express lanes.
This means that this Mac Pro is much easier to upgrade than the previous model!
As for graphics options, the 2019 Mac Pro includes the Radeon Pro 580X card as well as the Radeon Pro Vega II, which offers up to 14 teraflops of compute performance and 32 GB of memory with 1 TB/s of bandwidth memory, the most powerful of all GPUs, according to Apple.
This Mac Pro introduces the Apple Afterburner, an accelerator card that allows this Mac to play up to three RAW 8K video streams and 12 RAW 4K streams.
According to the Apple firm, the Mac Pro 2019 has a power of 300 W and a state-of-the-art thermal architecture, which allows it to operate constantly at full capacity.
The Mac Pro 2019 can be moved easily thanks to its handles and thus offers 360 degree access. If you wish you can mount it in a rack.
