Apple launched Mac Studio models with M5 Max and M5 Ultra processors in Türkiye. M5 Max configuration from 167.999 TL getting started The starting price of the M5 Ultra version is 369,999 TL was determined as . The professional desktop offers higher processing power, Thunderbolt 5 and up to 512 GB combined memory option in the same compact chassis.
The M5 Max comes with an 18-core CPU and has up to 40-core GPU depending on the configuration. The combined memory capacity goes up to 128 GB. This model; It targets high-definition video editing, audio production, software development and users working with large photo archives.
The M5 Ultra, on the other hand, combines two M5 Max dies with Apple’s UltraFusion connection. According to Apple’s technical data, the top model provides up to 36-core CPU, up to 80-core GPU and 1.2 TB memory bandwidth per second. Memory capacity can be increased up to 512 GB.
This high-level configuration is not necessary for every user. However, teams running very large AI models locally, rendering complex 3D scenes, or processing multiple 8K video streams in the same project can benefit from high memory capacity. Moreover, the unified memory architecture allows the CPU and GPU to access the same data pool.
M5 Ultra model heads towards desktop workstations
There are Thunderbolt 5 connections, HDMI, Ethernet and USB ports on the back of the Mac Studio. The connections on the front provide easier access to frequently used storage units and cards. In addition, Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6 support brings wireless connections to the same level as current Apple products.
Since the dimensions of the case remain largely the same as the previous generation, there is no need to change the table layout. However, the device does not include a screen, keyboard and mouse. Especially when Apple Studio Display or another high-resolution monitor is added, the total system cost can rise well above the starting price.
Storage selection is also important in professional use. Large video and AI files can quickly fill the internal SSD; Thunderbolt 5 connection offers a solution for fast external drives. However, since some applications keep cache and temporary files on the internal disk, you should not choose the initial capacity just by looking at the archive size.
Apple Türkiye store is taking orders for standard M5 Max and M5 Ultra configurations. Delivery of the top option with 512 GB combined memory dates to the end of October; Other delivery times vary depending on the selected GPU, memory and SSD capacity.
