Mac Pro scale up? How is this going to scale up to a Mac Pro, especially related to RAM? The Ultra caps at 128 GB of RAM (which isn't much for video editing, especially given that the GPU uses the system RAM). Today's Mac Pro goes up to 1.5TB (and has dedicated video RAM above this). If the Mac Pro is say, 4 Ultra's stacked together - that means the new Mac Pro will be capped at 512GB of RAM. Would Apple stack 12 Ultra's together to get to 1.5TB of RAM? Seems unlikely.

Production houses working on massive projects will get the Pro. Anyone else will get the Studio and use proxy clips.

Hector Martin who’s developing Asahi Linux for Apple Silicon recently tweeted about this. The M1 Pro, M1 Max and the at the time unannounced “Double M1 Max” have a completely different series identifier (T600x) to the forth coming Mac Pro chip (T6500) so no it won’t just be a doubling/quadrupling of an existing design. https://twitter.com/marcan42/status/1498317101245034502?s=21 https://twitter.com/marcan42/status/1498317101245034502?s=21
