Just a thought......
I've seen very little about what exactly is meant by "modular" for the new MacPro. I was just giving it a little thought and was wondering what that might mean. Assuming the the modular aspect heavily leverages TB3 as it connection means, It seems that a convergence between...
Hi all, just saw this in my mailbox, it's still a long way from that $1000-action deal in Amerika but still might tip over some people into buying one in the Netherlands or Belgium. (like me, i'm still on the edge...)
cheers!

Trying to get my iMac Pro setup such that I have secondary monitors placed on the left and right sides of the iMac.
The Apple USB-C to Thunderbolt adapter doesn't support video, so I purchased a Sonnet USB-C to Dual DisplayPort adapter and attached my previous 24" screens.
Sadly, this made for...
While I used Macbook and iOS devices for quite a while, I just moved as my main machine from a 6 core i7 Windows to iMac Pro (10 core, 64 GB RAM). I couldn't be happier with the switch with the power of the machine and how quiet it is.
However I have instances where I still need some Windows...
hi all
Long time lurker seeking some advice. I picked up a new base model iMac Pro for $3999 from micro center - what a bargain!
Anyway, want to connect my MBP 2017 and use it as a secondary display but doesn't seem to work via usb-c for some reason?
Apple doesn't offer much helpful advice...
If I go to browser.geekbench.com and search for i9-7980XE
https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/search?utf8=✓&q=i9-7980XE
I see many "iMacPro1,1" results, formatted roughly like this:
iMacPro1,1Intel Core i9-7980XE 2592 MHz (18 cores)
For example this one...
Just ordered the 10-core iMac Pro, with expected delivery between Feb 20 and Feb 27. I have a project coming up that I'm hoping to use it for, but it might arrive just too late for it.
Essentially, just curious if people have found their iMac Pros ship faster than expected?

Alright - Wow! So do I have some epic questions and a long story for this community...a little backstory:
We are medium-sized video production company and for the last 5 years we’ve edited from Mac's...

I created a summary computed with the benchmark numbers + relative performance index to the fastest machine in each test.
Price wise:
the 10 core is 78% the price of the 18C for 83% of it's performance (in these 6 benchmarks)
the 8 core is 68% the price of the 18C...
Hi,
Seems that iMac Pro has an issue with the built-in speakers. A buddy told me about this and I was able to replicate it on my machine. Wondering if any other iMac Pro owners can help test and report back in this thread, it takes only a few seconds and maybe it will catch the attention of...
Hi,
Is anyone else experiencing dirty shutdowns/restarts when putting your iMac Pro to sleep?
I'm having to restore apps, files and browser windows every time I reawaken from sleep, or the same happens when I get back to the office in the morning and the computer has shut down completely over...
Bill Atkinson, member of the original Mac team, in 1983:
I have a dream where Apple releases the computers we want at the prices we want.
Some original Mac team members reportedly cried when it was announced the computer would sell for $2495 instead of $1999.
But lets put that in...
I'm an old school graphic designer and I'm looking to upgrade to the new iMac Pro as I just feel it delivers on all my current and possible future needs. I have always been a MacPro user, but I just feel as the world has moved on, primarily with video and more specifically 4K video editing...
Hi,
for giggles, I compared the top of the line (old) I-mac vs the basic I-mac pro:
For a US$1.100,- more, the I-mac Pro does not seem to offer much more than just the (cool) darker colour and obvious evidence (for those around to you) that you, in fact, got the Pro!
Is there anything...
Hello all, I ordered an iMac Pro with an 18 core configuration back on release day, and my estimated delivery date is still Feb 6 - 20th. I was wondering if anyone else has ordered an 18 (or 14) core variant and had an updated delivery. When I ordered the computer, Apple estimated 4-8 weeks. If...
Is it an inherent flaw that all LG panels dating back from late 2012 iMacs to the new models including the iMac Pro all suffer image retention/persistence/ghosting? I noticed my late 2012 iMac 27", returned iMac Pro, and current iMac Pro with upgraded RAM seem to all be affected. I can easily...
Hello. I know there is a similar thread on this but didn't want to hijack it with my question! I'm in the process of buying an iMac Pro and was planning on using a Samsung T5 external SSD connected into one of the Thunderbolt 3 connections (USB type-C to type-C connection) as one of my backup...
On December 26, 2017 I took delivery of a 10-core iMac Pro. From the time of its arrival I have had two serious problems that may or may not be related. (1) External USB3 hard drives (I have tried a variety from different manufacturers) attached to the ports on the back of the iMac Pro are...
Hi All,
Does anyone know if the RAM on the iMac Pro has a preparatory thermal sensor? I have fitted replaced the 32GB standard RAM and replaced it with 128GB of exactly the same specification RAM and the fan runs at full RPM. To check I didn't damage anything I replaced the 32GB RAM and the fan...
Hi,
I would like to buy a NAS with 2 hard drives, each one with 8TB, to save things on one hard drive and have a mirror backup on the other.
I was thinking to buy the Synology DS218j but I noticed it has just 1GpE and just USB 3.0.
Two questions:
1) What do you think, should I buy a Nas with...
