[doublepost=1499735632][/doublepost]Interesting. Here is a 16-core, 32-thread Xeon running at 2.6 GHz with a max TDP of 150 Watts. This is doable in a revised iMac, so the spec'd iMac Pro 18-core might not be too much higher in terms of TDP:

And then there's this one, a 22-core, 44-thread 2.2 GHz CPU with TDP of 165 Watts.

For reference, the i7-7700K gets around 1000 in Cinebench.

While I certainly don't need such big power for now or maybe the next a few years, I always feel excited knowing those stuff coming. Thanks for sharing.
