Apple just released a new graphics option for its 16-inch MacBook Pro, the brand new AMD Radeon Pro 5600M GPU with integrated HBM2 memory.

New AMD graphics option for faster performance

TechCrunch reported that the 16-inch laptop will be 75% faster in graphics performance as compared to the Radeon Pro 5500M. The 16-inch MacBook Pro will also have up to 3.5x faster performance than the previous-ten 15-inch MacBook Pro; this makes it a better choice for pro consumers who need high processing power in video editing and 3D rendering.

The base model for the 16-inch laptop is currently priced at RM12,199, but if you choose to get the AMD Radeon Pro 5600M with 8GB of HBM2 memory, you’ll need to spurge another RM2,800 — yes, it’s that pricey.
