Apple unveils speedier M3 iMac at 'Scary Fast' event
Cupertino (California) [US], October 31 (ANI): Apple's 'Scary Fast' event was launched on Tuesday morning. During the launch event, Apple unveiled some brand-new Macs that include the most recent version of the company's in-house chip.
According to Apple, the new M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max circuits are the 'first personal computer chips' built using the more efficient 3-nanometer technology.
Aside from a 'faster and more efficient CPU,' the trio of chips has an improved GPU that enables ray tracing, mesh shading, and Dynamic Caching, a function that optimises the amount of memory used by the device during tasks, the Verge reported.
Apple's M3 processors support up to 128GB of unified memory, with the most powerful M3 Max chip featuring up to 92 billion transistors, a 40-core GPU, and a 16-core CPU.
The new 24-inch iMac has an M3-flavored update that Apple claimed is twice as fast as its M1-equipped predecessor. Along with the new processor, the redesigned iMac includes a 4.5K retina display with over 1 billion colours, Wi-Fi 6E compatibility, and a 1080p webcam.
