    MP 6,1 Mac Pro 2013 CPU riser replacement

    Hi, I have a 2013 Mac Pro, it's the 3.5 Ghz 6-core. Been having DIMM issues, and now one of the slots does not recognize RAM. I can see that in this problem slot a couple of pins look broken. Not sure if I did this when troubleshooting (I was swapping DIMM modules quite a bit). But I might want...

    M2Pro 10vs12 Cores

    Forgive my lack of knowledge. I’m currently in the market for a new laptop for video and graphic editing, encoding, rendering…etc. I was wondering if there is a big difference between the M2 Pro 10 core vs M2 Pro 12 core? I can’t seem to find any benchmarks pitting these two against each other...

    Resolved The 5,1 Fan Conondrum

    Hello, my first post on this forum and sadly it isn't a nice one; but it could end up nicely - I hope! I've had a problem with my precious 5,1 for a long time. Then I became ill and didn't try to fix it - instead resorted to my PC, which annoys me every day no matter the great performance. I'm...

    Processor board release mechanism

    I'm having a problem with the processor board release mechanism on my 4,1 Mac Pro. You are meant to press in the tabs on either side to push out the board connected at the back. However these tabs now do nothing. You can freely slide them in and out without any resistance. To remove the board I...
