Quick–fire questions & answers
WHICH EXTERNAL GPUS WORK WITH APPLE SILICON MACS?
None, because its GPU is integrated into the chip, where it shares Unified Memory with the processor. As an eGPU can’t share that memory, Apple would need to design in support for that. Even with Intel Macs, there are limits to support detailed at https:// apple.co/3NtoBLl.
CAN I UPGRADE MY MAC STUDIO M1 MAX TO M1 ULTRA?
Apple shows no sign of offering such hardware upgrades. With the introduction of self– repair in many countries, it could be possible to order a replacement Ultra logic board and fit it yourself. However, parts are ordered against the Mac’s serial number, so cheating doesn’t look possible, and would be expensive and difficult.
