In an interview, Apple officials explain the new Macbook Pro M2 Pro and M2 Max CPUs

The GPU in the M2 Pro can be configured with up to 19 cores, three more than the GPU in M1 Pro, and features a larger L2 cache. Graphics speeds are up to 30% faster than that of M1 Pro, leading to significant increases in image processing performance and enabling console-quality gaming.

The M2 Max is built with 67 billion transistors, 10 billion more than the M1 Max and over three times that of the M2. Its 400GB/s of unified memory bandwidth is twice that of M2 Pro, four times that of M2, and supports up to 96GB of fast unified memory. The M2 Max also features the same next-generation 12-core CPU as the M2 Pro and a more powerful GPU, with up to 38 cores, paired with a larger L2 cache. Graphics speeds rise up to 30% faster than M1 Max.
