When asked why the high-end Mac Studio was getting an M3 Ultra chip instead of an M4 Ultra, Apple told Ars Technica that not every Apple Silicon generation will get an “Ultra” chip. The M3 Ultra is the highest-performing chip Apple has ever created, offering the most powerful CPU and GPU in a Mac, double the Neural Engine cores, and the most unified memory ever in a personal computer. M3 Ultra also features Thunderbolt 5 with more than 2x the bandwidth per port for faster connectivity and robust expansion. M3 Ultra is built using Apple’s innovative UltraFusion packaging architecture, which knits together two M3 Max dies over 10,000 high-speed connections that offer low latency and high bandwidth. This allows the system to treat the combined dies as a single, unified chip for massive performance, delivering a total of 184 billion transistors. Andrew Cunningham for Ars Technica:
