The M5 Ultra 36-Core chip features a 80-Core GPU, which includes Apple's latest shader core with 2nd-Gen Dynamic Caching, as well as hardware-accelerated mesh shading and 3rd-Gen ray tracing. A more capable Media Engine means dedicated hardware-enabled H.264, HEVC, four ProRes encode and decode engines, and hardware-accelerated AV1 decode are available for high-resolution video editing. The M5 Ultra also includes a 32-Core Neural Engine, driving complex AI tasks and Apple Intelligence features securely on device with optimal power efficiency.
With these frameworks and the M5 Ultra chip, developers can run and fine-tune large AI models locally on their Mac Studio. Apple's developer tools and frameworks automatically optimize performance across the CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine, and give developers the ability to use Apple Foundation Models, App Intents to tap into Apple Intelligence features, or their own proprietary AI models to build and run powerful AI workloads entirely on device.
There is now an entirely new version of Siri, powered by Apple Intelligence. It's a profoundly more personal and capable assistant, and much more conversational, with a dedicated Siri app. And you can write and edit with Siri virtually anywhere you type, and use Visual Intelligence with Siri to learn about what's in front of you.
Designed to fit under most displays, it puts tremendous power and connectivity within arm's reach.
And even with all that power, it stays remarkably quiet, so you can process batch video renders or coding agent tasks without interrupting your focus.
Both feature a camera, mics, speakers, and Thunderbolt 5 for everything from livestreaming to expanding your setup with even more ports.
