This list of Mac models grouped by CPU type contains all central processing units (CPUs) used by Apple Inc. for their Mac computers. It is grouped by processor family, processor model, and then chronologically by Mac models.

Motorola 68k

Motorola 68000

A Motorola 68000 processor in a dual in-line package, as the early Macintosh models used

The Motorola 68000 was the first Apple Macintosh processor. It has 32-bit CPU registers, a 24-bit address bus, and a 16-bit data path; Motorola referred to it as a "16-/32-bit microprocessor."[1]

Motorola 68020

A Motorola 68020 processor

The Motorola 68020 was the first 32-bit Mac processor, first used on the Macintosh II. The 68020 has many improvements over the 68000, including an instruction cache, and was the first Mac processor to support a paged memory management unit, the Motorola 68851.

The Macintosh LC configured the 68020 to use a 16-bit system bus with ASICs that limited RAM to 10 MB (as opposed to the 32-bit limit of 4 GB).

Motorola 68030

A Motorola 68030 processor

The Motorola 68030 was the first Mac processor with an integrated paged memory management unit, allowing for virtual memory. Another improvement over the 68020 was the addition of a data cache.

Motorola 68040

A Motorola 68040 processor

The Motorola 68040 has improved per-clock performance compared to the 68030, as well as larger instruction and data caches, and was the first Mac processor with an integrated floating-point unit.

The MC68LC040 version was less expensive because it omitted the floating-point unit.

PowerPC G5

An IBM PowerPC 970FX ("G5") processor

The PowerPC 970 ("G5") was the first 64-bit Mac processor.

The PowerPC 970MP was the first dual-core Mac processor and the first to be found in a quad-core configuration. It was also the first Mac processor with partitioning and virtualization capabilities.

Apple only used three variants of the G5, and soon moved entirely onto Intel architecture.

Main article: Apple M1
An Apple M1 processor

The M1 is a system on a chip fabricated by TSMC on the 5 nm process and contains 16 billion transistors. Its CPU cores are the first to be used in a Mac processor designed by Apple and the first to use the ARM instruction set architecture. It has 8 CPU cores (4 performance and 4 efficiency), up to 8 GPU cores, and a 16-core Neural Engine, as well as LPDDR4X memory with a bandwidth of 68 GB/s. The M1 Pro and M1 Max SoCs are fabricated by TSMC on the 5 nm process and contain 33.7 and 57 billion transistors respectively. Both have 10 CPU cores (8 performance and 2 efficiency) and a 16-core Neural Engine.

The M1 Pro and M1 Max have a 16-core and 32-core GPU, and a 256-bit and 512-bit LPDDR5 memory bus supporting 200 and 400 GB/s bandwidth respectively.[20] Both chips were first introduced in the MacBook Pro in October 2021.[21][22]

On March 8, 2022, the M1 Ultra, a processor combining two M1 Max chips in one package,[23] was announced. It is initially available exclusively in the highest-end variants of the Mac Studio and was released simultaneously with on March 18, 2022. All parameters of the M1 Max processors are doubled in M1 Ultra processors, as they are essentially two M1 Max chips operating in parallel; they are, however, packed as one processor package (in size being bigger than Socket AM4 AMD Ryzen processor)[23] and seen as one M1 Ultra processor in macOS.

M2

Main article: Apple M2

The M2 is a system on a chip fabricated by TSMC on an enhanced 5 nm process, containing 20 billion transistors. It has 8 CPU cores (4 performance and 4 efficiency), up to 10 GPU cores, and a 16 core Neural Engine, as well as LPDDR5 memory with a bandwidth of 100 GB/s. The M2 Pro and M2 Max SoCs are fabricated by TSMC on an enhanced 5 nm process and contain 40 and 67 billion transistors respectively. Both have 12 CPU cores (8 performance and 4 efficiency) and a 16-core Neural Engine.

The M2 Pro and M2 Max have a 19-core and 38-core GPU, and a 256-bit and 512-bit LPDDR5 memory bus supporting 200 and 400 GB/s bandwidth respectively. Both chips were first introduced in the MacBook Pro in January 2023.[24]

The M2 Ultra is a processor combining two M2 Max dies in one package. It is available in the highest-end variants of the Mac Studio as well as the Mac Pro, both released on June 13, 2023.[25]
