Logic feels much snappier than ever before too. The video card on the other hand makes a massive difference in overall feel of the machine - especially on video work. I did a lot of research on the i9 and it didn’t make a significant enough difference over the i7, and I was a little concerned about the well-known throttling issue, although that seems to have been solved for the most part. I guess i wait a few months and will wait for some real-time performances and deeper reviews.Ībout 2 months ago I went for the top 6-core i7 with 32 GB RAM, 2 TB SSD and Vega 20 video card. Jony Ive.please go.īut i could say the same over their iPads (which are super great for music production as well). I like macOS and macbooks but not quite happy with the quality and form over function these days. But as usual i could get the same for about €400-500 less from third party sellers after 1-3 months or so. Mmhhhh, my configuration (15", 2.3GHz 8-core, 32GB RAM, Vega 20 GPU) would cost me €4199 here (Germany after tax). Then there is the T2 chip and some other design fails which might bring problems after short time. I would be fine with just 512GB since all my samples running from extern SSD´s.Īnother big BUT is the keyboard.i really want the old one i use right now on my 2013 macbook pro which never failed (and i like eating and drinking while using it) in any way yet.
8 core mac pro 3.1. 28gb ram full#
More important is the generation of the cpu.īUT.i would wait for some deeper reviews of thermal throttle and so.Īs with the older and current macbooks the cpu almost never run at full speed for long anyway, so the 0.1 GHz more for 200 is wasted for sure. I do not care much about the 2.3GHz since that says nothing really. I was close to buy a new macbook pro (also my main machine right now) since i need it mobile.Ĩ core sounds good since multi-core is the way to go for me.
