The new iMac Pro is no joke. Up to 18 cores, 128GB DDR4, and less chords. Fully pimped out = $13,000 USD. Even the base model is pretty fast.

- the only joke is the apple pricinghelloeatbreathedrive
- If you want to pay 13k for non upgradeable two years old hardware which Apple refuses to repair for the silliest of reasons then OK.mekk
- a PC workstation with similar specs costs about the same, so where's the joke @helloeatbreathedriv...ernexbcn
- Mac vs PC. FIGGHHTTTinteliboy
- ditto, i think @mekk said it properly. to each his own i guess.helloeatbreathedrive
- Robbery. I built a more powerful pc a few years ago for 3k including oled monitorimbecile
- they are having a laugh right? Thats insainly priced. Put those components into a linux/windows build and take a holiday... or 3mugwart
- 13k? That's Surface money right there...docpoz
- 13k? lolol. No. You could build a render farm and a PC with top of the line specs for that money.section_014
- I guess Apple is banking on ppl that don’t want to\ can’t build their own, and don’t want to switch to PC. Like me.dopepope
- I just want a powerhouse computer to do my 3D work. But they’ve priced me out with that. I can’t buy that thing.dopepope
- How much does a stand-alone 27” 5k display cost? How much does a stand-alone 18 core CPU cost? All those parts ain’t cheap at all.monospaced
- Of course you can build something similar, but you can’t recreate it for the price that I know of.monospaced
- The intel chip on the base model retails for almost $2k alone.monospaced
- The video card is at least $650 and the display equivalent is at least $1300.monospaced
- shut the fuck up. that thing is priced purely for profit. it's so plain and you're so simple.imbecile
- Yeah but so is a Ferrari, for the same price you can have the homer._niko
- any computer is priced for profit unless you try to build it, and I'm not "simple" ... are you here to help or just be a cunt to me imbecile? holy fuck grow up!monospaced
- if you want to discuss this like a grown up sane human, try finding price parts and actually show me I'm wrong. Until then you're just being a cunt.monospaced
- I literally outlined that in only 3 parts, you're already at $4,000, and that's not even with a case or power supply or any other partsmonospaced
- so at $5k, it's not actually a bad dealmonospaced
- mono: the base model doesn't come with 18 cores, that's the $13k version. It's about twice the price of a PC.zarkonite
- I know that. I priced the base model version at $650. The 18 core is thousands more retail anywhere.monospaced
- Oh I mean $2k.monospaced
- yeah and that $2k version offers you less than a PC will.zarkonite
