    Thinking about making the upgrade from my 16 core to the 28 core CPU for video editing. When I bought the Mac Pro I was filming Sony 4K footage now I’m shooting RED Monstro 8K footage.

    I feel like I post a new issue every week here. Anyone experiencing sluggish, none responsive system after sleep. For me there is no consistency, as I can wake the system and work without fault. And then other times come to it, and whilst the system has nothing open, struggle to even get the...

    I recently upgraded to a RED Monstro 8K VV camera so the single card will not cut it. I’m looking to buy the duo and I’m praying that will be enough! But where can I sell off this card? Is there a Mac marketplace somewhere? Or am I stuck on fleabay?

    MP 7,1 Mac Pro 7,1 case tight/pressure to lock

    Anyone having issues removing and replacing the outer case? Mine literally just arrived, and unlocked fine, but when trying to lock it, I had to apply significant pressure to close it, and lock. IE kneeling on the top to push it down as far as it needed to be able to twist the handle?

    MP 7,1 Logic Pro users: what configuration is optimal?

    I'm seeing a lot of talk about video editing and Threadrippers, but as a Logic user I'm just trying to figure out what the configuration sweet spot is on the 7,1. It seems to be the case, going off the emerging benchmarks, that the base Mac Pro will provide no meaningful gains over a low-mid...
