Last night, Apple released the new iPhone SE and the new color of the iPhone 13 series, but it is clear that these two phones are not yesterday's highlights, the high-performance computer host Mac Studio is the focus. It is reported that this product can choose M1Max or M1 Ultra chip, support optional up to 128G of memory and 8T SSD, and can also support up to 5 monitors at the same time, which is the ceiling of productivity equipment.
As the focus of the conference, this product has just caused a boom, it is reported that the entry model using M1 Max has been delivered within three hours of release, and the estimated delivery time has come to March 23-30. What is even more exaggerated is that the model equipped with M1 Ultra, the estimated delivery time directly came to April 13-20, and even a screenshot posted a forecast of May delivery. You know, its price is as high as 3999 US dollars, about 25000 yuan, if you add customized upgrades, it is even higher, so that such expensive digital products can queue up, it is indeed only Apple.
In fact, if you look at the performance of M1Ultra, you can see why Mac Studio is so popular. Its chip area is 2 times that of the M1 Max and 7 times that of the M1. Built-in 20 CPU cores and 64 GPU cores, 32-core neural engine, 114 billion transistors, media performance also reached twice the M1 Max. In terms of running points, its single-core running score is 1793 points, which is still a bit different from the current desktop-level top CPU, but the multi-drink running score has reached a staggering 24055 points, close to the level of the top server CPU.
According to the estimates of authoritative institutions, this situation is actually closely related to Apple's supply chain shortage and the chip shortage that the world continues to experience. However, with the easing of the number of first orders and the improvement of the supply chain, this situation should not last too long, after all, for Apple, the first line has become a traditional reserved program. At present, on the domestic official website, Mac Studio has not yet opened pre-sale, and each customer is limited to 2 units. Of course, when you buy, you don't have to blindly pursue performance, the important thing is to find the equipment that best suits your work needs.
