MP 7,1 Waiting for Mac Pro 7,1 A1991 (no more)

[JimmyPainter]

Looks it's time to start a new thread: nMP 2018 edition.

Still have 6 more months left for this year.

Still have 6 more months left for this year.

We still have 6 months this year, we could talk about all of this till 2018, but why limit ourselves .... Just change the subject to "When will Apple make another Mac Pro since they killed off those kind of computers?" or "Will we ever see another Upgradable Mac?" or

"Will they Release MacOS v3 code named Lotto since the move to naming convention of games of chance to the public on a subscription base to install on your own hardware?"

Probably those remaining 6 months are reserved for idevices.

A better topic "what's Mac Pro?"

They could of used a single most powerful card at the time, only to have been beaten by the next newest model. Or go with dual graphic cards who's performance would stay relevant over a much longer period of time. They chose the dual card option.

Nah, you are still regarding dual gpus as a combined greater one, which is mostly wrong (in most cases). I'd bet that most people would prefer the certainty of a single powerful gpu instead.

Oh well, WWDC is starting.

2018.

Wisely this thread is named Waiting for MP 7,1

Yes 7,1 for 2018.

Hello MacOS

 

[Zarniwoop]

macOS Sierra is for Mac's:

• iMac and MacBook 2009 and later
• Macbook Air, Macbook Pro, Mac Mini and Mac Pro 2010 and later.

So bye bye the rest to the obsoleteness.

I suppose Metal is not yet mandatory.

 

[ManuelGomes]

macOS Sierra?
Cool.
Do I need to buy a watch now? To unlock?
No, we have Siri...
Now the hunting for AMD (or nVidia) code begins...

 

[koyoot]

Huge emphasize on deep learning for Siri. Very interesting in the context of what has been discussed over past few weeks in the threads here.

 

[ManuelGomes]

OK, have we seen it all? Or will Apple surprise us in the end and unveil some new hardware? Just a hint? nMP?
Guess not. By the looks of it, only hope for a Late 2016 by the year end.
[doublepost=1465841504][/doublepost]Indeed, I wonder if they'll force DL also in macOS and leverage the use of both GPUs.

Not encouraging that you can buy the 6.1 on the macstore now during the presentation. don't they usually have the store down?

[ManuelGomes]

I'm not sure the numbering scheme still holds, 10.12?
Sierra seems to be inline with the landscape theme.
Rumors seem to be pretty much spot on so far.

 

[pat500000]

Looks like some "leakers" were wrong.

Education price would be a good deal for 6,1. Anyway...6,1 is still the latest.

 

[MacProCard]

Good to see the old gang just as confident as the were in 2014.

It seems, that openCL capable HW has become mandatory with macOS. That is one thing you can learn from the drop out list. Nvidia GeForce GT 120 and Radeon HD 4670 are now the minimum GPUs for iMac and HD3000 the minimum iGPU. But why Mac Pro 2009 is dropped out when it has has same GPU's as iMac that wasn't dropped... plain arbitrary?

This is annoying... Apple just doesn't give two ***** about professionals anymore

 

[ManuelGomes]

I guess most of this time was spent on iOS10.
Curious - Xbox Scorpio with 8 core CPU with 6TFlops and 320GB/s mem bandwidth? What would you bet it packs?

It's a developers conference, but for Apple it is a fashion and lifestyle show. It is weird.

 

[ManuelGomes]

E3 going on.

Seems like cMP is undisputed and 6,1 is still a good buy at discounted price. When Phil stated in 2013 that nmp is the new thing for 10 years...I guess 6,1 will be the latest for 10 years.

 

[zephonic]

looks like no new hardware today, we're almost out of time...

 

[filmak]

Don't you like 2017?

Yep, unless Apple has not changed the habit, we're not going to see any new HW today.

These assmunchers shouldn't be charging the same price for hardware that is almost 4 years old...

I don't own iPhone and I wont... so second half of the show I've been doing something else.
