Start building your Mac Pro with our suggested configuration:
- Two 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon “Harpertown” processors
- 2GB memory (800MHz DDR2 fully-buffered DIMM ECC)
- ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT graphics with 256MB memory
- 320GB Serial ATA 3Gb/s 7200-rpm hard drive1
- 16x double-layer SuperDrive

8 cores, standard.
8-core processing was once reserved as a high-end option. Now it's at the heart of the Mac Pro line. This incredible power stems from all-new Quad-Core Intel Xeon “Harpertown” processors, featuring speeds up to 3.2GHz and 12MB of L2 cache per processor.
Blazing fast, up to 2x performance.
With its 8-core processing, advanced Xeon architecture, 1600MHz dual independent front-side buses, and 800MHz memory, the new Mac Pro delivers up to 2x greater application performance.2
Up to 4TB storage, RAID, and SAS.
The cable-free, direct-attach hard drive bays make it easy to install up to 4TB of storage with Serial ATA 3Gb/s drives. For enhanced data protection, the optional Mac Pro RAID card delivers hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 0+1. Used with this card, 15,000-rpm SAS drives bring added performance to RAID configurations.
The new generation of graphics.
All new, high-performance graphics cards from ATI and NVIDIA offer even greater performance for 3D and graphics- intensive applications. For more power, upgrade to a workstation-class card with up to 1.5GB of memory. All cards now support up to two 30-inch Apple Cinema HD displays.
