iMac Pro Possible to connect multiple Blackmagic eGPU to iMac Pro?
Hi is it possible to connect two Blackmagic eGPUs and get better results? I'm thinking of another of the same basic one, or a Pro. Looking to get better performance doing 3D-rendering. After some google it seems daisy chain is not the way to go, but to be using different TB3 ports to balance... -

Mac Pro, mac Mini with eGPU or something else
Hello everybody, as my current system is already 7 years old now, I am in the market for a new desktop. When the rumors about the new Mac Pro started, I thought "Well, I'll just wait to see what they announce and how much it costs." - That was before they announced the pricing of the new Mac...- tobiastimpe

iMac Pro - Sudden Failure
2017 iMP - running fine today and then a couple of minutes after the screensaver kicked in it made a brief static crack noise from the speakers and went dark. Tried the obvious with the power and buttons but no response, visually or audibly. When hooked-up to a power monitor I can see that the... -
iMac Pro Another iMac Pro vs 2019 iMac Question (a bit different)
Hello Mac lovers of the forum, I have the systems you see in my signature. Just sold my 13" mbp after realizing that with the new iPadOS, I can handle the tasks I do on the go with an iPad Pro. Now, I have put an ad for my iMac and looking for the offers. Actually, I don't need to upgrade this... -
iMac Pro in 2019/2020?
Intel's roadmap for Xeon processors is continuously changing, albeit their last official position is to refresh the line every 4/5 quarters. It seems that Cooper Lake will arrive in Q4 2019/Q1 2020, while it seems that Ice Lake 10nm Xeons will have to wait till the end of 2020. The premise is... -
iMac Pro + Pro Display HDR
Apologies if this info is already out there somewhere, but I haven't been able to find it. Is it reasonable to assume that the iMac Pro, which can run two external 5K displays, will support two connected Pro Display HDRs, one for each Thunderbolt 3 bus? Does anyone have any concrete info on this? -

Space grey vs. Silver discussion [merged]
Hello! I’m about to buy a 2018 15 inch MBP (2.6 i7, 16gb and 512gb SSD) and I’m just wondering - what colour is the best to go for in terms of longevity (not getting marked/scuffed) and in general which do you tend to prefer? It is my first MacBook, having moved over from Windows, and I’m...- CB98

I now have an iMac Pro and maxed out 2019 iMac. AMA.
A beautiful new base model stock iMac Pro just showed up at my work. It’s a surprise because I was originally denied an upgrade to the Pro version but I think my boss’ boss pulled some strings. I also recently purchased a maxed out 2019 iMac 5K for home use. So I’m in a bit of a unique... -
My iMac 5K Pro (space gray skinned 2019)
EDIT: Added more photos a few posts down. I installed a space gray iMac Pro skin wrap on my 2019 iMac 5K. So not only does it have a faster i9 CPU than the base model iMac Pro, but it also looks the part! I'm calling it the iMac 5K Pro. I don't think I've seen anyone else post this here, so... -
iMac pro buying advice
I tend to use my Mac's a long time (4-5 years) so when I purchase I max them out on specs. I'm on a 2015 MacBook Pro with 16GB Ram and 1TB SSD. I'm researching an iMac Pro purchase but since it is very expensive, instead of the usual 4 years I plan on using it for 8 years. My i7 Hackintosh that...- cylack

Ditch iMac Pro for iMac 2019 i9? Noise?
I have an iMac Pro with 64 RAM and it is still in the return window. I'm wondering if I should consider ditching it for a i9 8 core 2019 iMac with similar specs and save about $1400 (by adding my own RAM from OWC). I have not seen any conclusive breakdowns saying if the new iMac i9 is having any...- Groovykeys

Premiere Pro - better on 2019 iMac or iMac Pro?
I am trying to decide to get a refurbished iMac Pro for $4,000 (see link below) or a highly configured 2019 iMac, which almost comes to $4,000 when you include Apple Care, upgraded Ram and tax. I watched this review and it seems like Premiere Pro runs better on the 2019 iMac - am I missing...- Maceditor87

List of upgrades I would like to see in the iMac and iMac Pro Lineups. What are your upgrades?
The iMac and iMac Pro current design chassis is very out dated internally and externally. The thick gross bezels are intolerable to me. Part of the reason we buy a mac is for the form and design of the machine. Apple has failed us with the aged face of the design (Chin, thick bezels etc) and...- hellokittymeow

Refurb iMac Pro or high end 2019 iMac?
I’ve waited for the the 2019 iMacs, and planned on going for an i9 config with the 1TB SSD but realized I was in the mid to upper $3Ks very quickly. I know the base iMac Pro has some better standard design features (cooling, ports, video card, 10g Ethernet... even the FaceTime camera is 1080p... -

Best CPU for Mac Pro 6.1
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... -
Connecting (2) G-Drives to New iMac Pro?
I need to connect two G-Drives, both with Thunderbolt 1 non-daisy chainable interfaces, to a new iMac Pro. I'm thinking the best way to do this is by using two of the iMac Pro's USB-C ports, but I can't find a USB-C to Thunderbolt 1 (i.e. MiniDisplayPort) cable that supports data. Does anyone... -
