What kind of performance does the iMac Pro offer in everyday use?

What storage and configuration options are available for the iMac Pro?

The iMac Pro is available with 32 GB, 64 GB, or 128 GB of RAM, depending on the configuration. SSD storage options include 1 TB, 2 TB, or 4 TB. Since the RAM and SSD are permanently installed, the desired configuration should be carefully selected before purchasing.

How does the iMac Pro differ from a regular iMac or Mac Studio?

Compared to a regular iMac, the iMac Pro offers significantly more performance and better cooling. Compared to a Mac Studio, it boasts an integrated 5K display, but is less expandable and energy-efficient.

When was the last iMac Pro released?

The last iMac Pro was unveiled on December 14, 2017, and was available until March 2021, when Apple officially discontinued it. It was the most powerful iMac model of its time, equipped with Intel Xeon processors (up to 18 cores), up to 256 GB of RAM, a Radeon Pro Vega GPU, and a 5K Retina display.

Since then, Apple has not released a direct successor to the iMac Pro. Instead, the company has focused on high-performance Apple Silicon chips in regular iMacs and the Mac Studio as an alternative for professional users.
