Yes sorry – I added up wrong. 1 x 4 is most definitely 4. So the iMac has the same GPU memory as the base spec Mac Pro but on one GPU, not two. This will obviously make a difference in Resolve, but will it make a fundamental difference to the way that AE, CC or FCPX works?

What’s in the box:
Power Cord
Mac Pro
Dust!
Air!
Packing Material!!!
Silica Gel!!!
….If you look at the 4 core model vs the iMac, you can spec the imac with an i7, 32Gb RAM, 256Gb SSD, a free keyboard and mouse, an 8GB GPU and a bundled monitor and that comes to £2708. The 4 core model is £2499 for 4Gb GPU and 12gb RAM.
Unless the Mac Pro 4 or 6 core absolutely slaughters that iMac in performance, how much are they going to be stepping on their own toes with pricing in the next 2 months after release?
And yes, yes, I know the Mac Pro has more thunderbolt ports and hdmi 1.4….

Only the cheese costs 4 months rent. Lean times at mouse house.

Yes, well done Tim. Every thread was turning into a childish bitch fest!!!!!! and I was tired of digging my dictionary out to try and understand what a hominem was.
I still assume a straw man is some sort of reference to a farmer?

The only thing to add to this, is that the hard drive was the 250Gb SSD.
Still, very aggressive pricing for what could be a very fast mac. I’d love to see some benchmarks at some point soon, but they will no doubt arrive. I don’t think they will stop us purchasing, but might affect how much extra we spend on top of a minimum 6 core spec….

Thanks very much for all of your suggestions. The client is being very specific about the look of each individual element – even the dots have to look right! Hence them sending over an agreed photoshop file that I need to animate from.
Seems as though the best way to do it is having multiple instances of the layer and then have a mix of 2 suggestions. The expression is great for the representation of traffic at a steady speed, but when we want to accelerate, I’ll dissolve to a faster version.
Thanks!

Just had some pretty definitive business prices – indeed it seems that the 12 core machine, with top spec GPU and 64GB RAM will be less than £7500.
For a 6 core machine with dual 3GB GPU and 32Gb RAM it will be around £4600.
Very impressive.

I DONT KNOW WHAT WE’RE YELLING ABOUT

We won’t be purchasing until we start to see benchmark testing on the main models and most obvious upgrades. Mid January for an order with a delivery in Feb should be about right!
