Mac Pro is the most powerful of all Macs and so it is clear that ho Apple they don't have to update every year. But it seems that already this autumn we Apple will present a new model of the computer, which in 2013 underwent the most dramatic change in its history. However, we probably don't have to wait too much for the new update, but it can still be enriched with USB-C ports and support for the Thunderbolt 3 interface. It will be a matter of course that the hardware will be renewed, which includes not only new graphics cards, but also new processors. And that's exactly what Intel introduced today.

Today, the company introduced a new series of Intel Xeon processors based on the Skylake architecture, which will also be used in other future Macs. However, the new Xeon generation brings a huge milestone in the history of hi-end work processors, as Intel Xeon can be used in notebooks for the first time in history, and thus also in MacBookat Pro. They make it possible mainly because the new Skylake Xeon processors offer a perfect bilanceven between performance and mobility. However, no one knows exactly what this means, except for Intel, since the company does not mention at all what consumption and performance these new processors offer.

Therefore, it is quite doubtful whether the Xeon E3-1500M v5 will reach 15" MacBooku Pro, due to its dimensions and the need to maintain high battery life. However, the alternative that 17″ would return to the market sounds much more interesting MacBook Pro, which was very popular and is still desired by many power users who want a larger display and 13" MacBook it is not exactly the most suitable solution for them. There is also a possibility that the processors will be used in a future iMac with Retina display.

It goes without saying that the new Intel Xeon processor supports Thunderbolt 3, i.e. an interface that uses the USB-C port, but is able to squeeze absolutely maximum, as it is several times faster than USB-C cables.
