Who thought that Apple with the M1 Pro and Max already exhausted the maximum, he was wrong. Today the Apple M1 Ultra was presented. He can.
The new M1 Ultra is based on the M1 Max, which was Apple's best and most powerful ARM processor to date. What was not known at the time of its launch is that it has connection contacts that allow it to be connected to a second processor of its kind, which Apple calls "UltraFusion." And there you have it, the Apple M1 Ultra.

Apple M1 Ultra: Twice as fast
With 114 billion transistors and a five-nanometer architecture, the M1 Ultra is twice as fast as its predecessor. It supports up to 128 gigabytes of RAM with a memory bandwidth of 800 gigabytes pro second and has 20 processing cores, 64 graphics cores and a neural engine for machine learning and the like with 32 cores. Otherwise, it comes with the same features that we already saw in the processor that Apple unveiled in the fall. Nevertheless, it should still be very energy efficient. It is used in the new Mac Studio, information about which can be found here.
