How will the new mac pro fare as a Bitcoin mining machine?

I just set the mining operation up on my 13" Oct 2013 2.4Ghz i5 - 8Gb Mac pro.

It reached a steady 25Gh/s which was admirable. However it is terrifying to run it off the Macbook pro alone as quite a few have tried and needed replacement boards/chips. The little amount of cooling means that thermal damage possibility is high.

Marty, how did you do that? Mine 2013 Mac Pro with 2x FirePro D500 (6GB) GPUs doing 0.45 Gh/s GPU mining..
