Apple Macbook Pro Core i5, Core i7 - Price, Specs, Build-to-Order Options - NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M, 320M Graphics

Apple has finally updated the whole MacBook Pro line with faster processors, powerful next-generation NVIDIA graphics and even longer battery life.

The popular 13-inch MacBook Pro, which retains the Core 2 Duo chip (but jacked up to 2.4GHz and 2.66GHz), now features the new NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics processor for up to 80 percent faster graphics and a groundbreaking 10-hour built-in battery. The new 15-inch and 17-inch MacBook Pro models, on the other hand, are updated with Intel Core i5 and i7 processors and Apple’s new automatic graphics switching technology that toggles seamlessly between powerful NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M and energy efficient Intel HD Graphics processors.



"The new MacBook Pro is as advanced on the inside as it is stunning on the outside. With faster processors, amazing graphics and up to three more hours of battery life, the new MacBook Pro delivers both performance and efficiency."
- Philip Schiller, Apple Senior Vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing.
