The powerful 8-core CPU combines four performance cores and four efficiency cores that work together to tackle demanding multithreaded tasks, while the 7-core GPU delivers blazing-fast integrated graphics.

M2 features up to a 10-core GPU, resulting in a big boost in graphics performance. And its media engine lets you play and edit up to 11 streams of 4K and up to two streams of 8K ProRes video.²
