How long do you think the 2013 Mac Pro will be supported by macOS updates?
The 2013 Mac Pro is still on the market, being sold by Apple. I know Apple has pretty much never dropped software updates for devices less than 3 from the time taken off the market (with the exception of Xserve G5) so it should get macOS updates until 2022. Does this mean, in your opinion...- macrumor2018

Major Problems; is it MP 5,1 or High Sierra?
I've had nothing but problems with High Sierra, and I'm not sure if it's a hardware or a OS problem. I've not used the OS för nearly a year because of all of the issues I've had with it, but I thought I'd give it a go because of seeing the link speed for Sapphire Mac ATI HD7970 being upgraded to... -

I extensively benchmarked my 2018 Mac Mini+eGPU against my 2009 Mac Pro
Hi there! It turns out keeping a 2009 Mac Pro running can be a lot of busy work (as 25 pages of people who can't read instructions will attest)- especially since I have a Geforce 1080 and modern NVIDIA cards are no-go in Mojave until further notice. So I figured it'd be a good time to get the... -
