Apple adds very expensive new graphics options to Mac Pro


Apple has added new models of graphics cards to its Mac Pro configurations, adding even more graphics power to the eye-wateringly powerful (and expensive) desktop beast.

In a press release AMD stated:

AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) today announced availability of the new AMD Radeon™ PRO W6000X series GPUs for Mac Pro. The new GPU product line delivers exceptional performance and incredible visual fidelity to power a wide variety of demanding professional applications and workloads, including 3D rendering, 8K video compositing, color correction and more.
Built on groundbreaking AMD RDNA 2 architecture, AMD Infinity Cache and other advanced technologies, the new workstation graphics line-up includes the AMD Radeon™ PRO W6900X and AMD Radeon™ PRO W6800X GPUs. Mac Pro users also have the option of choosing the AMD Radeon PRO W6800X Duo graphics card, a dual-GPU configuration that leverages high-speed AMD Infinity Fabric interconnect technology to deliver outstanding levels of compute performance.

The W6800X module is a $2,400 add-on, or $4,600 for two, whilst the W6900X MPX is $5,600.

The new Mac Pro is expected to be one of the last Intel Macs to make the jump to Apple silicon, with a new one reportedly on the way later next year:

Apple is set to bring Apple silicon to the Mac Pro “later next year” according to a new report, but it won’t be the main Mac Pro that we’ve come to love. Instead, it’ll be a new, smaller version of the powerhouse machine.

According to Gurman’s latest Power On newsletter, Apple plans to have a “revamped, smaller Mac Pro with Apple silicon” ready for “later next year,” although that could presumably change as the months wind on.

The new smaller one will get Apple silicon, whilst a new Intel refresh for the larger version is also reportedly in the works. Alleged designs of the new smaller Mac Pro were leaked by Jon Prosser earlier this year.
