How to pick the perfect Apple system
Scan sells a wide variety of Apple systems including the Mac Pro workstation, iMac desktop and MacBook Pro laptop models. Mac Pro models have professional-grade Intel Xeon W CPUs as opposed to consumer-grade Intel Core CPUs and are also more scalable when it comes to memory, storage and GPUs. Both types of Pro systems are powered by the latest AMD Radeon Pro graphics cards, whereas the new iMac models feature M1 processors which combine a CPU with an integrated GPU. Where they also differ is the target market and thus how they are optimised. Mac Pro workstations are powered by higher spec graphics cards and should be the first choice for professional video editors, post production and studios in a fixed desk environment with multiple high resolution monitors. iMac desktops and MacBook Pro laptops in contrast feature less capable GPUs so provide video artists and content creators compelling performance and the added advantage of mobility.
