On reflection I think they've decided that their pro users want 'more GPU not more CPU' - they could easily have added a couple more CPU cores but it obviously wasn't a priority. Agreed that it's hard to see how designing a CPU just for the Mac Pro would make any kind of economic sense but equally struggling to see what else they can do!

There is only so much you can do improving the CPU. On the other hand, we still haven't really reached the limit for GPUs.

  I suppose it’s the software - most CPU software is primarily designed to run on a single / few cores. GPU code is massively parallel by design.
