s.jobs was alive, and working, during the inception period of mp6,1 design.I was wondering. When Sterve Jobs was still alive, did he focus (I know he was very focused with his products) on making Mac pros to be more like z1 workstation?
(fwiw)

I used to do a lot of multi-gigapixel computational photography, and similar size to you photoshop files on a 2010 mini with 8gb of ram - honestly, unless you need more than 16 (and hopefully 32gb soon) of ram you may find the sweet spot for your workflow is a mini with a eGPU, and with all hints that the upcoming (as in "released to manufacture") Retina 5k display IS an eEPU, TB3 eGPUs may well be the "non imac" less over-specced than a Mac Pro sweet spot you're looking for.
I went for a 2009 pro because I needed bulk ram for the panoramic stitching, which eats 20+ GB of ram during the render (and seeing all 16 - soon to be 24 virtual cores pegged to 100% with no change in noise levels has its certain jollies), but it I hadn't needed it at the time, for specific images I needed to make, I probably would have waited to see what happened in the next couple of months.
So...Steve was involved in this design as well?s.jobs was alive, and working, during the inception period of mp6,1 design.

On Terfalops front or gaming front?For 3k I would expect more than mid-range GPU...
as far as i can gather, no, not particularly.. he didn't really 'design' anything and instead spoke more in conceptual fashion regarding product development..So...Steve was involved in this design as well?

I wonder how this will affect current and coming products.
I'm not legal knowledge guy..but i'm thinking it would be broadcom...however...apple is using it is.."guilty by association." I'm not even sure Apple licensed it.Yeah, it seems this is know for years now.
And is it Apple or Broadcom to blame? Is it a hardware issue or software?
Is it just Apple using it?
Both as the poorly written AMD drivers just gimp your performances.On Terfalops front or gaming front?
Even if each CPU is around 140W, and the PSU is upgraded to 500W, you're still short. Unless you downclock a lot, or use 1070s which could fit with some work. But best case scenario would be 2 Polaris 10 GPUs in Dual FirePro setup if you will....
[doublepost=1464627505][/doublepost]It seems there are pretty good chances (rumors or whatnot) that the nMP 7,1 is indeed a fact and that performance will be great. Hope so, if not just to shut the $#%& up some haters here.
Kidding, I'm really into getting one and I hope it's awesome.
I understand that some info might not be disclosed right now (care with those that will say this is just PR) but keep it coming as possible.
You should get a little more knowledge in the front of AMD drivers. But thanks for input .Both as the poorly written AMD drivers just gimp your performances.

And I can just hear Phil "my ass" describing how pulling out WiFi is a good thing.This would be the day when Apple powers up and meets our demand....but doesn't include wi-fi....LOL.
What a moment for Apple....lol.And I can just hear Phil "my ass" describing how pulling out WiFi is a good thing.
Anything with Dual R9 390X level of performance, 6 core Broadwell-E/EP CPU 32 GB of RAM and at least 512 GB's of SSD will fit my needs perfectly.
Oh, and if it would cost 3000$. That would be even more perfect .
Interesting. This is 120W CPU, with around 1800$ price tag.Is this interesting: http://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/6786807?
I suppose you answer MVC. He does not buy Macs. He sells Nvidia GPUs with Mac EFI, to people who need them. He is not able to sell them to people who own nMP.Yawn. Why must these threads constantly derail into Nvidia vs AMD arguments? Nvidia shot themselves in the foot by trying to sue Apple, so it's unlikely that a Nvidia card will end up in any new Apple computers. Get over it; We don't need 100 posts complaining that AMD is garbage. Don't like it? Don't buy a mac. If you still feel the need to constantly moan about it, start a new thread called "Why AMD and the nMP sucks"
