I can confirm the 8 core Xeon E5-2667 V2 (not provided by Apple) is the best CPU for Mac Pro 6.1. - Both single-core and multi-core performance is better than in the 12 cores CPU provided by Apple: 4135/27254 vs 3369/27076. - compared to the new iMac Pro with 8 cores, single-core and...

Hey everybody. I had a question regarding upgrading a 867MHz PowerMac G4 Quicksilver. Since third party CPU upgrades from the likes of Sonnet are either impossible to find or pretty expensive, I was wondering if it is possible to take the CPU’s from a dual processor MDD model or even from a...

I am having a weird issue after I updated the CPU's on my Mac 1,1 to the quad core from the dual cores. If dimm 1 on the lower RAM board is occupied the system does not boot. The system turns on and the fans turn on as normal however there is no video out put and no chime, the white front LED is...

Had a quick question that I'm hoping someone can help me with. I'm not too skilled with macs, having primarily used PC's in the past. I was cleaning out some junk files using Dr. Cleaner and a cache folder came up labeled "Anomoean". I looked in the activity monitor, and saw a process labeled...

What can be wrong on a 4.1 tray? It's only on the CPU B side. It's not the CPU, swapped several times. It's not the memory, swapped as well. With another tray everything is fine. I know this tray has been sitting in a computer who ran hot, it killed the CPU B, replaced it, but something else is...

Hi, After a loong time (almost 2 years), I had some time today to try one more time to revive a Mac Pro 4.1 that I had to stash away since it died on me back in April 2017. The original post was this...

Hi everybody :) I’m about to purchase a MacBook Pro 13” without Touch Bar and as the title says I have this doubt, for a web developer (full stack if that matters) what is the upgrade that makes more sense? 16Gb RAM or the i7 processor? Knowing that I can’t afford both ..D’uh :rolleyes: Thanks

1.) Does better CPU in macbook (quad-core vs dual-core i5) will alow macbook to generate less heat? 2.) Does more RAM (16GB vs 8GB) allow macbook to generate less heat i.e. be cooler? 3.) Does dedicated graphic card in 15" version macbook pro, allow macbook to stay cooler while watching youtube...

Hi there I'm new user of iMac Pro and I would like to understand few things that looks unclear to me and now I'm focusing on CPU speed and Intel SpeedStep. I own 8-core version which from what I discovered (i.a. by HwInfo on Boot Camp) should step down as low as 1200 MHz without load...

Since I learned from you guys that bumping CPU, RAM and SSD to more than I need now would just be burning money, as it won't affect the resale price much, I've decided to just buy what I need now. Feeling very adult :) My plan was then to go for the premium config (512 GB SSD, 2.6GHz i7, Radeon...

Hey there, I know ebay and craigslist is always an option. But I was wondering if anyone knew of a place that buys used stock Mac Pro parts. I'd like to sell my stock 2.8 4-core CPU, and 4gb and 1gb RAM, for what little they are worth, and was hoping there was somewhere easier than online...

Since I updated to macOS 10.13.5 my Safari CPU usage always jumps to roughly 100%, freezing Safari and spinning up the fans. Anybody experiencing similar issues? I have tried deactivating all extensions with no luck.

If I connect a 4K monitor with a latest MBP, will there be a spike in CPU / GPU usage than normal ?
