Apple Mac Studio M5 Ultra targets professional AI workloads

The Mac Studio featuring the M5 Ultra chip has been identified as the most powerful Mac ever manufactured by Apple. While the physical design remains largely unchanged from the 2022 model, the internal hardware represents a significant shift in capability.

High-end configurations include up to a 36-core CPU, an 80-core GPU, 256 GB of unified memory, and a 4 TB SSD. This level of performance positions the device less as a consumer computer and more as professional infrastructure for tasks such as professional video editing, heavy development, rendering, and local artificial intelligence execution.
