Thanks to amd’s recent developments, i basically cancelled buying a new mac pro. Max ram speed 2666 ghz, max per core perf 3.5 ghz? What’s this 2015?

- lliamander 7y agoYeah, the Vega II GPU is pretty interesting, but the rest of the system is pretty lack luster. A 3rd gen Threadripper, 3600mhz ram, PCIE 4, 64-128 pcie lanes, and the option of either Nvidia or AMD GPUs seems just like a much better deal.
- arvinsim 7y agoGiven that Apple is tightly coupled with Intel for now, I would assume that they did not expect AMD to deliver great new CPUs and did not create the Mac Pro to compete with them in mind IMO.
- ossworkerrights 7y agoIndeed, but why would anyone buy a Mac Pro given the massive gap? The OS aside, which for me personal is a massive incentive, I don't see a good reason to do so.
