Mac Pro以其著名的、令人印象深刻的塔式机型取代了Power Mac系列。该产品线首次推出便登峰造极，展现了无与伦比的极致性能。Mac Pro 设计的各个方面都追求着性能表现。包围不锈钢内框的铝金属机箱，在提起之后，即可 360 度全方位直达各个组件和众多配置选项。万般可能，就从这里开启。Mac Pro 专为对中央处理器性能有着极高要求的专业用户而设计。无论是后期制作渲染，演奏数百种虚拟乐器，还是模拟多部设备来运行一款 iOS app，它都游刃有余。系统的核心是一款 Intel Xeon 处理器，最高可达 28 核，而这也是 Mac 历来之最。此外，它还配备大型二级缓存和共享三级缓存，并拥有 64 条 PCI Express 通道，提供了极高的处理器数据传输带宽。Mac Pro 的彪悍性能需要有强大的散热系统来配合，使得运行温度和音量都控制在相当低的水平。这款Mac Pro配有四个双槽位宽度插槽、三个标准宽度插槽，以及一个预配了 Apple I/O 卡的半长插槽，插槽数量是上一代 Mac 塔式主机的两倍，由此实现以往所不能企及的定制和扩展。

The Mac Pro is the successor to the Power Mac line with its well-known, impressive tower housing. When first launched, that product line was located in the high-end area and embodied a high degree of contemporary performance. The current Mac Pro has been designed to deliver extreme performance and is built around a stainless steel space frame with removable aluminium housing. This construction allows 360-degree access to all components, easy expansion and countless configuration options. The Mac Pro was developed for users who need a very high CPU performance for demanding projects such as rendering in video productions, playing hundreds of virtual instruments or simulating an iOS app on multiple devices at once. At the heart of the performance is an Intel Xeon processor with up to 28 cores. In addition, large L2 and shared L3 caches and 64 PCI Express lanes provide very high bandwidth in and out of the processor. To take full advantage of the processor’s performance, the Mac Pro is equipped with a massive heat sink that keeps the temperature of the system low and thus enables it to run fully unconstrained and very quietly. With four double-wide slots, three single-wide slots, and one half-length slot preconfigured with the Apple I / O card, this Mac Pro has twice as many slots as the previous model, allowing for easy customisation and expansion as required.
