So far, in my limited time use of it so far (got it late Tuesday, 10c/64gb/1TB/Vega64) and I haven't had much time to put it through its paces. It is a slick machine. Beautiful all around and FAST.
- Fans... I've done some basic testing quick renders in FCPX and some large RAW Photo files, loaded up a game (Guild Wars 2), and just tried to do things things that would make my 2014 iMac howl ... the iMac Pro was dead silent. Ran everything like a champ, and speeds that make my 2014 look like a paper weight.
- HOWEVER... There's something that started last night and curious if other people have this issue as well, when the system wakes from sleep (or goes to sleep it seems now...), the fans kick on, FULL BLAST. Stay on for maybe 15-20 seconds, then eventually slow down and are silent again. Under normal operation, fans never come back on, always completely silent, but if I go away a bit, come back, wake the system, 2 out of 3 times, the fans will flare up again. Also seems to do this on a fresh boot from a shut down.
I'd say it is a hell of a machine, but I need a bit more actual 'work time' with it to know for sure how it will play out and if I can confidently say it is a keeper!
