Apple's M3 processors power the new MacBook Pro and iMac


Apple has rolled out its new chip models: M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max, which power refreshed iMac and MacBook Pro computers. These chips are built using a more compact 3-nanometer process technology, potentially boosting performance and enabling new features for Mac computers. This new lineup represents a notable progression from Apple’s previous M1 and M2 chip series.
The M3 chip family comes with an upgraded GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), which Apple claims is a big step forward in graphics technology for their products. New features include Dynamic Caching and debut rendering technologies like hardware-accelerated ray tracing and mesh shading for Macs. These improvements are said to make rendering speeds up to 2.5 times faster than the previous M1 chips
