In a recent report on Monday, Apple officially introduced a slew of new updates for its iMac desktop and MacBook laptop computers, the all new, powerful iMac Pro featuring a 27-inch 5K screen and an optional 18-core processor.
The all-new iMac Pro, with its gorgeous 27-inch Retina 5K display, up to 18-core Xeon processors and up to 22 Teraflops of graphics computation, is the most powerful Mac ever made. Featuring an outstanding new space gray enclosure, iMac Pro equips beastly performance for advanced graphics editing, virtual reality content creation, and real-time 3D rendering. The device may help Apple rekindle its relationship with professional-level users dismayed by the relative lack of upgrades to its Mac Pro, which hasn't seen a notable upgrade since 2013.

In addition to the new iMac Pro, Apple is working closely on a completely redesigned, next-generation Mac Pro designed for pro customers who need the highest-end, high-throughput system in a modular design, also as a new top-end pro display.
As for specs, users will get Intel Xeon processors up to 18 cores, a Radeon Pro Vega GPU with up to 11 teraflops of single-precision compute power for real-time 3D rendering and top-quality VR. The new iMac Pro also supports up to 4TB of SSD, up to 128GB of ECC memory, and 10Gbit/s Ethernet. Users also get four Thunderbolt 3 ports and are able to connect two high-performance RAID arrays and two 5K displays or 44 million pixels for those keeping score at the same time. The new iMac Pro offers up to 80 percent with more cooling capacity in the same thin and seamless iMac design.
