Apple Mac Studio: Apple M5 Max Chip With 18-Core CPU, 32-Core GPU, 36GB, 512GB
The Mac Studio is Apple's compact professional desktop computer, built into a dense 19.9cm square aluminum enclosure that punches well above its footprint for creative and technical workloads. This configuration is powered by the Apple M5 Max chip, a high-end system-on-chip built for sustained, demanding compute rather than casual desktop use — pairing an 18-core CPU (6 performance "super" cores plus 12 additional performance cores) with a 32-core GPU and a 16-core Neural Engine. It ships with 36GB of unified memory and a 512GB SSD, giving the CPU, GPU and Neural Engine shared, high-bandwidth access to the same pool of memory rather than separate dedicated pools, which is the core architectural reason Apple Silicon Macs handle large creative files so efficiently.
Positioned for professionals running video editing, 3D rendering, music production and machine-learning workloads that need sustained multi-core and GPU throughput rather than burst performance, the M5 Max Mac Studio delivers up to 460GB/s of memory bandwidth to keep large datasets and high-resolution footage flowing without bottlenecking. It can drive up to five external displays simultaneously via its four Thunderbolt 5 ports (each up to 120Gb/s) and one HDMI 2.1 port, and adds two USB-A ports, 10Gb Ethernet, a 3.5mm headphone jack, plus a front-facing pair of USB-C ports and an SDXC card slot for quick access without reaching around the back. Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6 cover wireless connectivity. The box contains the Mac Studio itself and a power cord — keyboard, mouse and display are sold separately.
