At WWDC, Apple has announced the new ultrabook MacBook Air and workstations Mac Pro. However, the latter was represented only in the form of conceptual development, because the processors for them - a 12-core Intel Xeon E5 on Haswell architecture - will come only in the next quarter. So let's start with the real products, ready for delivery in retail.
Design of thin laptops Apple MacBook Air has not changed. New models of thin notebooks with a screen diagonal of 11.6 inches and 13.3 inches have moved to the platform Intel Haswell. This allowed almost the same batteries to increase the battery life of 11.6-inch laptop (it has battery capacity of 35 Wh) from 5 to 9 hours, and 13.3-inch to 50-Wh battery with 7 to 12 hours.
In its basic configuration, the 11.6-inch model costs $ 999, 13.3-inch - $ 1099. Screen resolution, respectively, 1366 x 768 and 1440 x 900 pixels. Drives - 128 GB SSD. Models with 256 GB SSD cost $ 1,199 and $ 1,299. Size of disk systems can be optionally increased to 512 GB. Basic set of RAM - 4GB. Optional - 8GB. Graphic system - integrated in Haswell (class Intel HD 5000). Graphics can support an external display resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. According to the company, the graphics performance increased by 40% compared to the previous generation platform processors Intel Ivy Bridge.
Finally, the wireless capabilities of new products up to standard 802.11ac Wi-Fi. At this stage it is three times faster than the 450 Mbit / s Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11n, which corresponds to the maximum speed of 1.3 Gb / s. It also supports standard IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0.
Here is the new professional workstation - Mac Pro. The appearance of new items is a cylinder. Natural aluminum cylinder with cut and trim the top.
The air induction system for cooling - triangular. Three fan takes air from below and through the passage with a triangular throw it in the upper part of the case. The body is small - its height of 25 cm and a diameter - 16.8 cm
New processor Mac Pro, as we have already noted - is Intel Xeon E5 with the number of cores up to 12 (Ivy Bridge). Video cards - AMD FirePro two adapters with 6 GB of GDDR5 memory and a total capacity of 7 teraflops.
To the new Mac Pro, you can connect three monitors with a resolution of 4K. Type of memory - DDR3-1866 MHz ECC. Four access. Capacity - up to 60 GB / s.
Wireless communication modules supported by Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.0. Related Products :
