Two quad-core Intel Xeon "Harpertown" processors are on board, which run at speeds of up to 3.2GHz.
There's also a new system architecture that delivers up to twice the performance of its predecessor thanks to Intel's new 45-nanometer microachitecture.
For example, Apple's tests claims that the new MacPro is able to run 2.6x more PlatinumVerb or 1.9x Sculpture synth than on 2.5GHz Power Mac G5 Quad in Logic 8.0.1.
Apple announced powerful new graphics capabilities and up to 4TB of internal storage, a large amount of L2 cache - 12MB per processor, so frequently used data and instructions are kept close to the processor cores.
And guess what : the standard 8-core configuration starts at just $2,799!
