Apple MacBook Pro 16 2023 M3 Pro review - Efficiency before performance
Apple M3 Pro 12-Core | Apple M3 Pro 18-Core GPU | 16.20" | 2.1 kg
The Apple M3 Pro 18-Core GPU is a self-designed graphics card in the Apple M3 Pro (with 12 CPU cores) and offers all eighteen cores available on the chip. The graphics card uses a new architecture and now offers dynamic caching, mesh shading and ray tracing acceleration.
The GPU can access up to 36 GB LPDDR5-6400 unified memory via a 192-bit memory bus (max 150 GBit/s). Thanks to dynamic caching, the GPU only reserves as much memory as is required.
The entire chip is manufactured in the current 3nm process (probably N3B) at TSMC.
