Premium Member Mark Kenfield Posted December 24, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted December 24, 2019 (edited) Hi guys, Putting my maxed-out Mac Pro 5,1 up for sale: Specs: - 12-Core 3.46 GHz Intel Xeon - 64 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 - MacVidCards Flashed NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN X 12GB - Sonnet 4x USB3 PCI Card - Sonnet Tempo dual SSD PCI Card - 512GB Samsung 850 Pro SSD Bootdrive - 1TB Samsung 850 Pro SSD RAID (900MB/s) Geekbench 5.0.4 Scores: - Single-Core: 657 - Multi-Core: 6179 - Metal Score: 35840 - OpenCL Score: 41816 As you can see by the benchmark numbers, she's a beast, incredibly stable, and gives me smooth 25fps real-time playback of 4k 16-bit Linear Sony Raw footage (which is seriously hefty material) in Davinci Resolve. And flies through edits in FCPX. I've put three 512GB Samsung 850 Pro SSDs inside, one for a fast boot drive (to hold the OS and all Applications) and the other two in a RAID via a Sonnet Tempo Dual SSD PCI Card, which gives 829MB/s Write and 997MB/s Read times, and allows for seamless playback of 4k Prores and Cinema DNG Raw up to 60fps, and Uncompressed 4k 4:2:2 streams up to 30fps. There's also a four port Sonnet USB3 PCI card for high-speed data transfers. The Mac Video Cards Flashed 12GB Nvidia Titan X is the highest performing CUDA-enabled GPU that you can use with the 5,1 Mac Pros. It work beautifully, gives you access to the Mac Boot Screen, and it also allows for OpenCL and Metal-based processing (which gives you the most versatility possible for software rendering options). Located in Melbourne, Australia, but happy to ship worldwide. If you have any questions or would like a shipping quote, feel free to get in touch. $2,250 USD / $3,200 AUD + Shipping Cheers, Mark Edited December 24, 2019 by Mark Kenfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Tyler Purcell Posted December 24, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted December 24, 2019 Very nice! I have nearly identical specs. I just have a blackmagic extreme card and NVME PCI board for boot. Nice machine and worth something to someone for sure! I'm building a hackintosh to replace mine currently.
