Mac Studio and Studio Display were designed to minimize their environmental impact. Mac Studio also shatters the limits of graphics memory on a desktop, featuring up to 64GB of unified memory on systems with M1 Max and up to 128GB of unified memory on systems with M1 Ultra. Since the most powerful workstation graphics card available today only offers 48GB of video memory, having this massive amount of memory is game changing for pro workloads. With the power and efficiency of Apple silicon, Mac Studio completely reimagines what a high-performance desktop looks like. “We couldn’t be more excited to introduce an entirely new Mac desktop and display with Mac Studio and Studio Display,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing. “Mac Studio ushers in a new era for the desktop with unbelievable performance powered by M1 Max and M1 Ultra, an array of connectivity, and a compact design that puts everything users need within easy reach.

Let us know your plans for the Mac Studio and the rest of the Mac line in the comments below. But I'll tell you this: it's definitely the next Mac I'll be buying when I need to upgrade. That would cause the massive cooling needs to require the much taller case of the Mac Studio. The new Mac Studio overcomes that, providing all the ports the Intel Mac mini offered and then some. Assuming Apple can deliver a reliable machine in volume, the Mac Studio is a home run. The Mac mini has long been an Apple cash cow. Again, Apple managed to cool those same processors inside the MacBook Pro, and there's far less room for airflow inside that laptop than there is in the much bigger Mac mini internal cavity. To do that, let's take a moment to revisit the very last Intel-based Mac mini (which Apple is still selling). I wrote about that Mac mini last year. In fact, earlier this month, YouTuber Snazzy Labs proved that the M1 Mac mini logic board was small enough for them to be able to actually hack it into a half-size case. The 7.7-inch square footprint is identical to the Mac mini footprint, but it's 2.5 times taller. The new Mac Studio is 7.7 inches square. Until now, if you needed absolutely extreme Mac performance, you bought a Mac Pro. The still-Intel-based platform was redesigned in 2019; the still-Intel based platform provided the raw power extreme pros needed.
