With the transition to Apple Silicon finally completed, the Apple remains committed to the production of the third generation of its chips. According to the BloombergApple has already started testing the “M3 Max”which should only be released next year and will equip computers like the MacBook Pro 14 and 16 inch and the Mac Studio.

The information was obtained from logs provided by a developer. According to the data, the “M3 Max” was tested on a MacBook Pro (codename J514) with 48GB of unified memory and has a CPUCentral processing unitor central processing unit.”>1 16 cores (12 for performance and 4 for efficiency) and GPUGraphics processing unitor graphics processing unit.”>2 up to 40 cores.

The “M3” line of processors will represent a big increase in relation to the current one — the biggest since the transition from Intel’s chips to Apple’s own, according to the article. It will be the first time that processors for Macs will be produced with the 3 nanometer process, which should result in improvements such as more battery life and performance gains.

The new line might be a turning point for Apple’s Mac business, which is trying to go once morest the grain of the computer market (which is in decline) and present itself as a viable option with its own processors — mainly due to advantages such as the between performance and energy efficiency, something provided by the ARM architecture.

The transition to the “M3” chips should begin in the second half of this year, with the launch of the most basic version, and will extend throughout the year 2024 – which will maintain the tradition of two years of releases for each generation of M series chips.
