Apple MA970LLA Mac Pro Features |
|
|
|
Start your engines. All eight of them. |
|
| Eight-core processing power was once strictly top-of-the-line. Now it comes standard. This time around, performance is more phenomenal than ever (up to two times faster than the previous standard-configuration Mac Pro). And with the multicore technology enhancements of Mac OS X Leopard, the new Mac Pro is a force to be reckoned with. Inside the new Mac Pro is the latest technology from Intel: two Quad-Core Intel Xeon "Harpertown" processors. These processors run at blazingly fast speeds up to 3.2GHz. Based on the new 45-nm Intel Core microarchitecture, they deliver amazing performance but still maintain outstanding energy efficiency. A huge amount of L2 cache (12MB per processor) keeps frequently used data and instructions close to the processor cores and improves overall performance. 6MB of cache is shared between pairs of processor cores, allowing an individual core to use all the available shared cache at any one time. |
|
Xeon, warrior processor |
|
| With the fastest Xeon architecture available, the new Mac Pro features 1600MHz dual independent frontside buses. These 64-bit buses give each processor a direct connection to the system controller and deliver improved processor bandwidth of up to 25.6GB per second (20 percent greater than the previous Mac Pro). With a new system architecture, speedier system buses, and fast 800MHz DDR2 fully buffered DIMM memory, Mac Pro memory throughput is up to 1.6 times faster than before. Every Intel Xeon processor features an enhanced SSE4 SIMD engine. Capable of completing 128-bit vector computations in a single cycle, SSE4 is ideal for transforming large sets of data, such as applying a filter to an image or rendering a video effect. The Mac Pro incorporates a 256-bit-wide, fully buffered memory architecture with Error Correction Code (ECC), which corrects single-bit errors and detects multiple-bit errors automatically. These features are especially important in mission-critical or compute-intensive environments. Now, Apple designed a more stringent thermal specification for the Mac Pro FB-DIMMs, so the internal fans spin at slower speeds and keep the system quieter than ever before. |

More bite than purr |
|
| What makes Leopard so great? The fully compliant UNIX technology. It can compile and run all your existing UNIX code. It helps you make the most of multicore systems. It puts a new tabbed-interface terminal at your fingertips. And it gives Leopard the solid groundwork for hundreds of great new features on every Mac Pro. Leopard is the first universal operating system to seamlessly support both 64-bit and 32-bit applications. There's no need to upgrade drivers, and you can even stick with your existing printers, storage devices, and PCI Express cards. Leopard lets you take advantage of 64-bit processing power without having to use command-line applications, servers, and computation engines. Leopard is designed to take full advantage of eight cores of processing power. The new Leopard scheduler allocates tasks more efficiently across these multiple cores and processors. A new multithreaded network stack speeds up networking. And Mail, Address Book, and Font Utility have all been updated to be fully multicore ready. |

Tra-la-la! |

Have no fear! The SuperDrive is here! Need a disc burned quickly? Let the Mac Pro's DVD SuperMulti drive handle it. The Superdrive feature supports DVDs, CDs, and even double-layer discs. The maximum speeds are as follows:
- Writes DVD+R and DVD-R discs at up to 16x speed
- Writes DVD+R DL and DVD-R DL discs at up to 8x speed
- Writes DVD+RW discs at up to 8x speed
- Writes DVD-RW discs at up to 6x speed
- Reads DVDs at up to 16x speed
- Writes CD-R and CD-RW discs at up to 32x speed
- Reads CDs at up to 32x speed

Hard-core software: standard |
|
| The Mac Pro ships with the latest and greatest in software innovation. As part of Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard, Mac Pro comes standard with the latest versions of the greatest applications, and includes iLife '08 out-of-the-box. New applications include Time Machine, which automatically backs up your entire system to an external hard drive. Boot Camp is another addition, which allows you to run Windows XP or Vista at native speed on your Mac. Quick Look in Finder automatically gives you full-size previews of your files before you open them (even video). Finally, Spaces allows you to create different screens of related windows to unclutter your desktop on a single monitor. In the improved category, Finder added Cover Flow, which allows you to browse working previews of your documents, and Finder also redesigned the sidebar for easier navigation. Desktop got a new look, and added Stacks, which allows you to organize your files in collapsible stack. Mail, Safari, iTunes, GarageBand, iMovie, iPhoto, iChat, and even the Parental Controls were revamped to work better with your life. These are just a few of over 300 changes in Leopard that users will wonder how they ever lived without. It's safe to say that this is one case where, "If it isn't broken, don't fix it." doesn't apply. |

What's the deal with ENERGY STAR? |
|
| The Mac Pro (standard configuration), even with its massive power, uses innovative design to meet ENERGY STAR requirements. ENERGY STAR sound really great. What does it mean, though? In a nutshell, ENERGY STAR is a government-backed program helping businesses and individuals protect the environment through superior energy efficiency. For the family or homeowner, energy efficient choices can save about a third on the energy bill with similar savings of greenhouse gas emissions, without sacrificing features, style or comfort. ENERGY STAR helps you make the energy efficient choice. When a product boasts ENERGY STAR compliance, that means the product meets stringent government standards for conserving both energy and the environment. This appliance meets strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the EPA and US Department of Energy. So whether you are concerned for the environment, your pocket book, or both, this appliance helps ensure both are given an easier load to bear. |

It's got the hookups |
|
| The Mac Pro comes standard with everything you need in the way of connections. It features two independent 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet (RJ-45) interfaces with support for jumbo frames, Bluetooth 2.0 + Enhanced Data Rate, optional 802.11n AirPort Extreme wireless networking, and even an optional external Apple USB Modem. It also makes room for Firewire 800 and Firewire 400 ports (1 each front and back), for 4 total. There are 5 USB v2.0 ports on the computer itself (2 front, 3 back), as well as two more on the included keyboard. On the front, there is an audio mini-jack out as well as an internal speaker. The audio connections on the back are even more accomoddating, with optical digital audio input and output TOSLINK ports, and analog stereo line-level input and output minijacks. Oh yeah, it's got the hookups alright . . . |
