Apple has introduced the M5 Pro and M5 Max, chips designed for professionals who need high-performance computing and AI acceleration.

Built on the company’s new Fusion Architecture, the chips combine two dies into a single system on a chip (SoC), integrating a CPU, GPU, Media Engine, unified memory controller, Neural Engine, and Thunderbolt 5 support. This design increases performance and AI capability while maintaining Apple’s focus on efficiency.

The M5 Pro features an 18-core CPU with six super cores and 12 performance cores, delivering up to 30 percent faster performance for demanding workloads compared with the previous generation. The GPU scales to 20 cores and includes Neural Accelerators in each core, boosting AI compute and graphics performance. Unified memory supports up to 64GB with bandwidth reaching 307GB/s, enabling faster data handling in complex professional applications.

The M5 Max expands capabilities further with up to 40 GPU cores and unified memory of up to 128GB. Memory bandwidth reaches 614GB/s, accelerating workflows involving large datasets, 3D rendering, and AI models. According to Apple, the GPU delivers more than four times the peak compute of the prior generation for AI tasks and up to a 20 percent graphics improvement over the M4 Max.

Both chips include a faster 16-core Neural Engine for on-device AI features, support hardware-accelerated media formats such as AV1 and ProRes, and incorporate memory safety protections via Memory Integrity Enforcement. Thunderbolt 5 ports with dedicated controllers enable high-speed connectivity for professional peripherals.

With the M5 Pro and M5 Max, Apple aims to push professional computing forward, particularly for developers, researchers, and creatives who require advanced AI and graphics performance. The new chips will power the latest MacBook Pro lineup, available for pre-order soon with shipments beginning March 11.

GIGABYTE has launched two new AORUS INFINITY graphics cards in celebration of its 40th anniversary, giving PC builders more options for their custom builds.

These are the AORUS GeForce RTX 5080 INFINITY 16G and the unique, nature-inspired AORUS GeForce RTX 5080 INFINITY WOOD 16G.

These high-end components are genuine design objects meant to elevate the look of one’s entire setup, while also providing topnotch GPU performance.

The new models build on the design language of the AORUS GeForce RTX 5090 INFINITY and further evolve the signature aerospace turbine-inspired aesthetic with integrated RGB lighting elements.

Particularly, the WOOD edition integrates wood-grain elements as its core design language, blending the warmth of natural textures with high-performance hardware.

As such, it is a crown jewel for lifestyle-focused users and interior design lovers, bringing a sense of warmth and emotional resonance.

At the same time, both are absolute powerhouses inside. GIGABYTE packed the new AORUS INFINITY models with the WINDFORCE Hyperburst cooling system.

The patented Hawk fan design minimizes airflow turbulence and noise while achieving higher air pressure and greater air volume.

In the thermal design is a large vapor chamber making direct contact with the GPU. This is paired with composite copper heat pipes to effectively accelerate heat transfer efficiently.

Both new AORUS INFINITY graphics cards support the Project Stealth series for a streamlined building experience.

The concealed power connector design neatly hides cables within the graphics card structure for a cleaner, less cluttery look.
