    Cue “it’ll be too expensive” and “it doesn’t run Nvidia cards”

    BTW what’s that screen!!!

    Quite a bit more detail than expected

    It looks great!
    Can’t believe Apple basically admitted that the 6,1 was a bad design. Too much form over function. Basically, Cube 2.0.
    I doubt you can use NVidia cards. Unfortunate.
    But 8 PCIe slots should make many happy.

    LOL. You guys beat me to it! Yes, the cheesegrater is back and so is the ICE card (Afterburner card). But equally stunning is the 6K Retina display. Promises 1,000 nits full screen, full brightness, indefinitely. 1600 nits peak. Pretty damned impressive WWDC keynote.

    MP starts at $5999 available in Fall.

    Pro display starts $4999 available in Fall.

    BTW – other interesting news is that the iPad gets its own OS.

    1000 nits would have been impressive last year. Several gaming monitors and consumer TVs area already hitting it. But 1600 peak is nice though not a standard.

    You missed the important part. Full screen, full brightness, sustained. Everyone else dims under those conditions.
