Ngemuva komthelela wokuqala wokubuka futhi usujwayele ukwakheka kwe-eccentric kwe- iMac Pro entsha Kubukeka sengathi hhayi esikhathini eside esizayo izovuselela izingxenye zayo futhi enye yazo kuzoba yiyona ukwakhiwa okusha kwe-Xeon processor okuzayo, i-Intel Grantley enezinhlamvu ezingafika ku-18 okufanele zifike ngoSepthemba.
I-Intel isivele imemezele ukuthi lo kuzoba ngumlandeli ka iprosesa lakho kusuka ochungechungeni lwe- «Romley»Lokhu kuphinde kwaholela ekuqageleni ukuthi iyiphi i-GPU noma imidwebo ezokhuphuka, okuphawulwe kakhulu yi-AMD FirePro W7000 / W8000 / W9000 engabalandeli be-D300 / D500 / D700 yamanje.
Ama-chip akumaXeon E5 v3 aziwa kakhulu ngeGrantley's aphethe isilinganiso esilinganiselwe sokusebenza kahle ngokushisa ngokusekelwa I-DDR4-2133 RAM lokho kuzothuthukisa ngokusobala ukusebenza kuzicelo ezidinga kakhulu.
Noma kunjalo, ijubane lewashi lama-CPU amasha lizocishe lifane nalawo afakwe kwi-Mac Pro asevele asemakethe, okungukuthi, izinguquko ezimbalwa kulesi sigaba ezihamba phambili kakhulu ukwenziwa ngcono kwamandla nokusebenza okuphezulu.
Izinhlobo ze-quad-core ezinikezwa yi-Intel zihlukaniswa njenge- I-E5-1620 v3 noma i-E5-1630 v3 ku-3.5GHz imodeli enamandla kunazo zonke ibe yinguqulo ye-3.7GHz. Ngokuqondene nenguqulo eyisithupha, i-E5-1650 v3 kungaba yiyo ekhethiwe, ehlala ku-3,5Ghz. I-chip eyisisekelo esiyisishiyagalombili izosuka ku-3,0 GHz enguqulweni ye-v2 ye-E5-1680 iye ku-3,2 GHz kunguqulo ye-v3. Okunye ukwahluka kweseva kochungechunge olufanayo kunganikezwa ngezinguqulo eziyi-12-core nezingu-18-core.
Ngokuqondene ne-GPU, ifayela le- I-W7000 izolingana ne-D300 esetshenziswa ekugcineni okungezansi kweMac Pros. Kuthiwa lawa makhadi amasha e-AMD angaba namabhasi amakhulu enkumbulo namanye ama-transistor amaningi okusobala ukuthi ahumusha ukusebenza okuphezulu kunalawa wamanje.
