    Hi good afternoon, So I’ve been thinking about what iMac to order and decided to get the 27 i9 with 580. I don’t need the vega gpu and prefer to save the money,I was scared that it will run too hot and loud but honestly after reading a lot of threads here I just can’t justify spending the extra...

    Blackmagic eGPU vs internal Vega 20 in MBP

    Hi, I am one of those early adopters of the 2018 MBP i9 with 560x cpu. I have a 5k monitor which I use frequently in 5k aspect ratio. I have noticed that most things I do with my 560x model MBP work adequately at native resolution 2560 x 1080, but when I go up to 5120 x 2160 everything just...

    2017 iMac. Did I expect too much?

    Hello, Until last month I had still been using an early 2011 MacBook Pro. I had upgraded it a couple times. Years ago with 16GB of RAM up from the factory 4GB. Then a bit over a year ago I went to a SSD. This computer was still pretty fast using Lightroom, Photoshop etc. However about 2 years...

    Design & Planet Coaster RX 560 or 580?

    Hi, (when saying RX I mean Radeon Pro, sorry!) Does anyone here have experience playing Planet Coaster through Boot Camp on the RX 460? I'm trying to decide to sell my 13 inch MBP (i7 2016 tb) and buy the 15 inch MBP with 560, or keep the 13 inch MBP and buy an iMac with the 580. I'm going to...

    1TB SSD vs. Radeon Pro 580 Upgrade

    So today I found out that I am eligible for an upgrade to my late 2012 (purchased March 2013) iMac 27" at work (specs in sig). But I also need to make sure that the price doesn't go too high, so I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons. Would most of you rather get by on a 512GB SSD and have the...

    eGPU and Sierra 10.12.5 - how goes it?

    Besides the Nvidia web driver issue, how are AMD Radeon 480/580 cards holding up? I'm running a vanilla install of 10.12.3 atm, looking to combo update to 10.12.5, and re-do a RX480 egpu on a nMP/d700/12c for extra resources to handle noise reduction passes in neatvideo for 6K video work...
