The just-announced Mac mini includes the unveiling of the M4 Pro chip for the first time. The new upscale chip features 14-CPU cores (10 performance and 4 high-efficiency), up to 20 core GPU, and support for up to 64 GB RAM.
Like the M4 iMac, both the M4 and the M4 Pro configurations of Mac mini also start at 16 GB RAM as the new baseline. And the M4 Pro chip brings Thunderbolt 5 for the fastest I/O yet on the Mac.
With Thunderbolt 5, you can now get up to 120 Gbps data transfer speeds using the new Thunderbolt 5 cable on the Mac mini. That’s up from the theoretical maximum 40 Gbps speeds of Thunderbolt 4.
The Thunderbolt 5 ports are exclusive to the M4 Pro Mac mini models, as it requires the extra bandwidth provided by the Pro chip. Mac mini with M4 Pro features three Thunderbolt 5 ports on the back of the chassis, alongside two standard USB 3 speed USB-C ports on the front.
The M4 Pro chip offers up to 273 GB/s of memory bandwidth across the system-on-a-chip, with a maximum of 64 GB RAM.
