Apple’s WWDC came with a LOT of great announcements, but the new Mac Pro may be the most hotly anticipated in a long time. Was it worth the wait?

This tin can with the best set up will cost more than a TESLA vehicle, $ 55,000.00 +,no joke. It all depends on your config..,l
I saw a review where they compare a top spec Mac to the top spec Dell, the Dell has a lower spec but is $30,000 more expensive
Can't wait until LTT gets one of these to review.
I hope that a lot of professional idiots purchase this machine at full spec so the price of high capacity ddr4 ram will come down! I'm really excited to be able to afford 32 Gig Dimms! Keep up the good work apple, and thanks you rich idiots for needing some kind of imaginary status symbol in a computer. lol
The base model is worst than a top spec imac which is half price, paying allot for ability to upgrade, it is s great machine though if you can justify the cost ie have a business that can make money with this machine
2019 is the year Apple started listening...
How's that? The product seems to be worse and more over priced than ever.
at the start of the video keep pressing right arrow

I can buy a similarly speced HP Z840 for under 7 thousand dollars...versus 25 thousand dollars for Apple's latest crime against humanity offering.
People have already done actual comparisons and the prices are pretty similar spec for spec: https://photographybay.com/2019/06/07/2019-apple-mac-pro-vs-hp-z-series-workstations/ You can also configure Z8's with $50k plus prices btw, yet Apple offers options to upgrade specs and everyone loses their minds.
I like you music in your YouTube's back ground very nice.
Hey I got that shirt too! One of my favorite shirts. The color just fits most of my wardrobe
A maxed out Pro will cost about 50.000 US
But will it play minesweeper.
Apple Mac Pro - $56,000.... Similarly spec'd (actually a bit lower spec'd than the Apple) Dell - $89,000 ON SALE, complete with the shittiest Indian Tech Phone Scammer support there is. As Linus pointed out with the new iMacs, the prices are actually quite good compared to similary spec'd PC's (even better in some cases). The thing is, this is a channel dedicated to gamers, who use cheap components, cheap monitors, and only really get their performance from a good Nvidia graphics card.
I mean who would speend 53k on a pc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbnmYV2tSQA
coz made in USA, the supply chian needs to catch up, high price means fewer buyers
Cant wait for someone to get scammed thinking its the best money for the buck.
Linus I no longer understand what you're saying...
Since a year you can build a more powerful PC than this MAC PRO and it would be even cheaper. A Dual 2080 TI + 32cores Epyc CPU would simply crush this machine and would also cost a bit less! Again Apple comes late and expensive!
America's only legal scamming company 😂
Most uf us expect an unbox video (and linus meltdown) likely to that red camera unboxing...
Mac Pro. SHIT... SHIT... SHIT.
Me :- Then what will be the next price for Apple's pro mac ? 😭
Brand 'Apple' :- Write down your phone number and count it. 😂
Me :- ok! then what will be your next Iphone price ? 🤣
Brand 'Apple' ones more : We have also 999$ stand which have same function like Iphone 😜
A question ? Everyone who criticize all those companies, Why don’t they make a perfect Pc or Phone , coz everything you do urself you always do better right ?
i so enjoy closing windows when comercials start
Watching in 2040: just found this at the thrift store 😂
Ah good ol Linus tech. The only person I go to to see the opinion on ridiculous products
My gawd, this guy can find something to complain about no matter the subject. Dust? SEAL on the case? GTFOOH!
but can it game?
Edit: but can it run Crysi.... eer RDR2?
The modular case probably costs £300
Cost of original Apple January 1984 Macintosh versus December 2019 Mac Pro. Now get over the cost and this is why....
Steve Jobs unveiled the first Apple Macintosh computer with a $2,500 price tag, on Jan. 24, 1984. In todays dollars on December 11, 2019 adjusted for inflation would now cost $6,188.84.
Originally released as the Apple Macintosh, is the original Apple Macintosh personal computer. Its beige case consisted of a 9 in (23 cm)black and white CRT monitor, single 400 KB, single-sided 3.5-inch floppy disk drive, and came with a keyboard and mouse.
The new December 2019 Mac Pro starts at $5,999 for the 8-core model with 32 GB of RAM and a 256-GB solid-state drive. That can be configured up to a 28-core model with 1.5 terabytes of RAM, and while Apple initially only offered up to 4 TB for the SSD, you can now go all the way up to 8 TB. A new Pro Display XDR monitor—a new Apple product as well—to go along with your workstation will set you back another $4,999 for the base model, bringing the cost of a full setup to $11,000. And that's just the entry-level configuration.
Now the original Apple Macintosh came with a screen. To compare the new December 2019 Mac Pro to the original would would have to add a monitor. Now for a fair comparison today December 11, 2019 the Amazon's Choice for a basic HDMI monitor Acer SB220Q bi 21.5 inches Full HD (1920 x 1080) IPS Ultra-Thin Zero Frame Monitor (HDMI & VGA port) is $89.99 which would bring the total base cost for a December 2019 Mac Pro with a basic monitor that is larger, and color to $6088.99 would bring the price in at about the same price as the original January 1984 Macintosh.
So when I look at this since I was willing to put the cash up back in 1984 for the original Macintosh I do not feel that the December 2019 Mac Pro is overpriced. Now would I as a normal purchase this much power for what I do daily for my own personal use?
Since I am no longer in the professional production, or now YouTube production world I would not. I now have a iMac Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014 which when I purchased it adjusted for inflation was still under the cost of the original Apple Macintosh. I use it for personal use these days with a little photography, video, and website work just to keep me off the streets. Also as you get older the larger screen helps out a lot.
If I was still in the motion picture, and sound recording business I would purchase more than one, and they would be configured to meet, or exceed the original requirements for the job they would be doing. Now for YouTube I might've topped out at the 2019 iMac Pro in the past. Now I would purchase a December 2019 Mac Pro that was equal in specifications to the 2019 iMac Pro which for me would have cost me $12,0099.00 as of December 11, 2019 just for the Mac Pro. Do not know what I would do for one, or more monitors if I was doing YouTube.
Of course the thing I love about the December 2019 Mac Pro unlike the 2019 iMac Pro or it's predecessor Late 2013 Mac Pro also known as the "Trash Can" you can upgrade, and change components. Now you can change/upgrade memory in the 2019 iMac Pro however that is about it.
I think $6000 version with average home PC specs for $999 would be bestseller for flexing
1200w PSU for rx 580 and 8 caore CPU lol
Full specs 1.5 Tb RAM memory, 28 core cpu, will cost 52,000 dollars
Apple can launch literal poop and the sheep will stand in line to buy it
I want linus to buy the ballest mac pro money can buy, i mean the highest speced model on earth
Meanwhile ... we all want to flex the new Mac Pro
Gay Sound
Apple monitor stand: $999
Apple Mac Pro cleaning cloth: $999
Apple vanity toilet paper: $999
Apple special launch offer: Get all 3 for a limited time for $9999
I was ready to buy the $38,000 top of the line Mac Pro, BUT, I found out it doesn't come with the Mouse and Keyboard! What a ripoff!
So Apple is beyond any doubt targeting only rich idiots now...I wonder how that will pan out.
Its a computer now.. with mac os
I just had a look at the apple site in Australia and specced up the maximum upgrades... the bloody thing came out to just under $81k AUD... I can buy 2 x EPYX dual cpu 2TB ram systems for that...
Obviously I'm not going to, coz there's no way I have that sort of cash, and even if I did, I'd only get one EPYX just for poops and giggles.
But damn. how the heck does apple think people will drop 80k on a system like that. just the tower...
Those massive rendering possibilities mean nothing at the price Apple are asking for one of these.
Editing is about it and you’ll never see this Mac Pro in professional post production houses, there pipelines are setup differently.
Meanwhile (and you know this) gpu accelerated options through renderers such as redshift are off the table for now.
Still that price oh dear oh dear.
Mac pro is made in USA. Competition is from overseas. You don’t want to pay for hired Americans then buy your chinese foxcomm boxes, comrade.
I Would throw everything i have just to get New Mac Pro <3
Hp just had an i7 processor laptop with 512 of nvme or ssd with octane, 16gb of ram and it was $529
