Apple M3 Max 40-Core GPU

Apple M3 Max 40-Core GPU

Apple M2 Max 38-Core-GPU 是Apple 的一款集成显卡，提供 M2 Max 芯片中的全部 38 个内核。 M2 Max 芯片.

该显卡没有专用显存，但可以使用具有 512 位总线（高达 400 GBit/s）的快速 LPDDR5-6400 统一显存。

由于增加了内核和架构上的改进，M2 Max GPU 明显优于旧的 M1 Max GPUM1 Max GPU 的 32 个内核，从而成为目前最快的 iGPU。

该 GPU 将使用Apple Metal 2 API，但仍可能基于较老的 PowerVR 架构（最后用于Apple A10）。2023 年款 MacBook Pro 14 和 16 的一个新功能是支持 HDMI 2.1 和 8k 输出。

Apple M2 Max 采用台积电第二代 5 纳米工艺制造。根据内部功耗测量工具，GPU 功耗高达 53.6 瓦（性能模式），整个芯片（包括 CPU）功耗高达 89 瓦。
