Maybe it’s the nature of the industry: you have to be fickle about which graphic cards you go with and change your affections from time to time.
Per 9to5Mac, the web site claims to have discovered evidence that Apple may be planning to switch from AMD GPUs to Nvidia graphics in the new MacBook Pro, expected to launch in June.
A number of reports have emerged confirming the move, quoting ‘trusted sources’ and noting references in the to the Nvidia GeForce GT 650M graphics card in OS X beta code. The sources have gone on to claim having located references to the GeForce GT 650M, which, according to Nvidia, offers incredible dedicated graphics performance for gaming and other tasks, all while apparently being battery-life efficient.
The MacBook Pros currently use AMD’s Radeon HD 6770M and Radeon HD 6750M for graphics processing.
There are also reports that Apple will include USB 3.0 in the next MacBook Air.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
