MacBook Pros aren’t the only Macs getting the M3 family of chips upgrade. Apple is also bringing its new hyper-powered silicon chips to the 24-inch iMac.

Supercharged by M3

The M3 chip features an 8-core CPU, up to a 10-core GPU, and support for up to 24GB of unified memory. It’s up to 2x faster than the previous generation with M1. Users will feel the speed and power of M3 in everything they do, from multitasking across everyday productivity apps to exploring creative passions like editing high-resolution photos or multiple streams of 4K video.

Featuring the next-generation GPU of M3, iMac supports hardware-accelerated mesh shading and ray tracing. This provides more accurate lighting, reflections, and shadows for extremely realistic gaming experiences. This also makes three-dimensional design and creation even faster.

With a 16-core Neural Engine and the latest media engine, iMac also delivers blazing machine learning and video performance.

The iMac delivers phenomenal productivity to small businesses, students, gamers, and everyday consumers. The M3-powered iMacs enables the following:

• Safari, the world’s fastest browser, performs up to 30 percent faster.
• Productivity apps like Microsoft Excel perform up to 30 percent faster.
• Games load even faster, and users will experience up to 50 percent faster frame rates.

From content creation to video editing or photography, iMac is perfect for aspiring creatives.

• Edit and play back up to 12 streams of 4K video, which is 3x more than before.
• Produce video projects in Final Cut Pro and Adobe Premiere Pro up to 2x faster.
• Process photos in apps like Adobe Photoshop up to 2x faster.
