“We believe great, two-monitor support is very complimentary to the thin and light design of the product.”

This is a fantastic solution for anyone who was disappointed by how cheap the max-spec 2023 Mac Pro is compared to the 2019.
What isn't being mentioned is that you can't use a 4K monitor with HDR at > 60Hz at a usable resolution.
So who cares if I can drive a billion 6K monitors when it can't even do one properly.

Genelec still makes 'em. Quite good I hear. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/prod..._g_two_two_way_active_speaker.html?ap=y&smp=y
interesting article re: your comment: https://www.bangor.ac.uk/news/archi...-are-right-brained-so-what-does-it-mean-41292
Just who are these people who are running 8 displays? I'm sure there's a few dozen in the world, but it seems like a very niche thing.
I switched back to mac when the M1 Max chip was released. I needed two graphics cards before to run 6x 1080p monitors (~12M pixels). This soundless little laptop in front of me is able to run an ASUS PG42UQ 4K monitor at 120hz HDR, two LG DualUp monitors, plus the macbook display in promotion (~30M pixels). Simply amazing!
GRAPHIC EQ!!!!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Oh the days of amazing sounding music, how I miss them😥
Would love to hear stories and photos of people using 8 x 4k monitors in their setup. Like one photo.. from anyone, at all
Fibonnaci strikes again!
While it's impressive, the graphics processing power will be distributed over the displays. With 8 displays connected, you won't be getting 8 times the rendering power than for a single 4K display.
Funny thing is, they not only dropped the name, but also put the LED on the other side.
The image should have included a 1980s boombox and a mixtape. Would have been relatable to the target customers....
Based on the screenshot you posted, I can see you haven't toggle the "show all resolutions" button. Try that and see if there is the resolution you were looking for.
Steve Jobs could’ve had them on his boat in place of the iMacs

He wouldn’t be able to heat the cabin with M series like he could the Intel Macs.
Did you have Genelec speakers in the 90's? Pretty, they are not - pure function over form.

Are you really that myopic that you fail to imagine a use case for this?
Real-world example: in the AV world, we use Mac Studios as media servers for large-scale events and exhibitions. We regularly drive 5+ 4K video processors from a single Mac Studio, and have developed our own proprietary solution to enable 8x 4K60 native outputs from a single Mac Studio M1 Max (no extra hardware other than Thunderbolt to DP/HDMI adapters required).
We could do with even more display output capacity, as the hardware ProRes decode engine in M1 Max/Ultra doesn’t even come close to capacity when playing back 16+ simultaneous ProRes 422 4K60 pieces of content.
So how do you physically attach 8 monitors to a single M2 Ultra Studio? Do you have to get thunderbolt monitors and daisychain them? Or is there some other option, like a breakout box for multiple display streams? Or...?
