It's almost a given that the new Mac Minis will be available with the M1 Pro and M1 Max processors. Making that change alone would justify it displaying the Mac Mini Pro name. Not everyone needs a ton of RAM, but if you're running multiple VMs, doing AR or VR, doing large video renders, or other big projects, being able to scale RAM is mission-critical.Īs you can see, merely replacing the M1 Mac Mini's processor with the M1 Pro or M1 Max opens up huge doors for professional users. Those equipped with the M1 Max can push that all the way to 64GB. Systems equipped with the M1 Pro support 32GB RAM (double that of the base M1). Rather than having separate subsystems connected over an external bus, CPU, GPU, ML processing, RAM, and IO are all built into the chip. Keep in mind that the M1 is considered a system-on-a-chip (or SOC). Apple does publish the memory bandwidth for the M1 Pro and Max, and while they're both likely idealized numbers, they're fast: 200GB/sec for the M1 Pro and a whopping 400GB/sec for the M1 Max. Closeīoth the Pro and Max increase Neural cores from the M1's 8 to their new baseline of 16 cores.Īpple doesn't publish the M1's memory bandwidth, but Anandtech did some testing, reporting the M1 gets to a peak of about 68GB/sec.
