Even the graphics are nearly three times faster than the Mac Pro. Likewise, the latter is without a doubt the world’s most powerful chip found in a personal computer. The chip connects two M1 Max chips on a single die and performs as a single chip. It is also called the UltraFusion architecture.

Thermals
As per the cooling options, there is a double-sided fan at the base of the desktop. It sucks in air and keeps the temperature in check. It has over 4,000 holes on the back accompanied by arranged airflow channels. This helps pass the air inside the internal components and cool off the silicone. The speed of the fan is very quiet even when there is some heavy workload.
