Apple Bumps iMac Pro to 10-Core Processor on Base Configuration

Alongside the launch of updated iMacs, Apple today also made a minor update to the iMac Pro, equipping the base configuration with the 10-core 3.0 GHz Xeon W chip that was previously an upgrade option.

All other specs appear to remain the same, with 14-core and 18-core processors available as upgrades. The starting price also remains at $4,999, although the stepped-up base processor essentially results in an $800 price cut on upgraded models.

Notably, the ‌iMac‌ Pro is not getting the $500 nano-texture glass option that was made available on the regular 27-inch ‌iMac‌ today.

not just the bezels....

how about all machines having just 8GB of ram ..... on a 2grand plus machine for the higher config

And then they want another £188 /$200 to add another 8GB! Ridiculous.

I really want there to be a 2nd gen iMac Pro with Apple Silicon, but I'm guessing this will be the "clearing inventory" update before killing it

I don’t think the iMac Pro is going to make the ARM transition, I’m guessing this machine will be discontinued within the next two years.

It’s neither here now there, but I’ve had this machine for around 3 years now. It was an 8 core base model that was open box so after all was said and done about the same price as an iMac with comparable upgrades.

It’s been a fantastic machine. Dead silent. Runs great. Not sure why such hate.
