  1. yeah exactly it depends on how much GPU demand your games require. You will have to search online and see what people say/ recommend. A lot of people use the RX580 8gb version due to its compatibility with Mac and recent good bang for your buck deals. (Today is the last day of Amazon Prime Day and it might be further discounted)

    2). If you have the M.2 NVME then you’re running the fastest storage on the Mac Pro

  2. If you have wifi on your machine you will likely have airdrop. If not you can instal a card such as this (you can watch YouTube videos how to instal it) ( https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B003U61UIM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_AHFlDbQXFV8CP)

    4). Your performance will vary. Not all programs will utilize all all threads. For instance when i game i only use 6 threads out of the 12 available (you can check your usage using iStat menu program or Activity monitor). This applies to other programs which you will have to look into it. But as on theoretical test here are the scores: (Almost double the CPU score on multi thread testing).

So yeah. I do have it, i thought this meant airdrop from mac <-> iphone, ipad.

Oh wow. I don’t understand much about geekbench scores, but thats a bit more than double what i have on mine. 2912 on single core and 13047 on multi core.

Seems so far the update i should be aiming for is that 12 core upgrade.

Thanks a lot!
