Why Does the M2 Mac Pro Exist?

Why Does the M2 Mac Pro Exist?

????

In a world where you can get the exact same performance from a computer half the price... what's the point?

You can't be a "hardware nerd" and prefer Apple. Hardware nerds don't support walled gardens.

I had to come here from the latest desk setup video to confirm it was launched in 2023 not 2020.

PCI-E
@silverwindspirit Says:
What I dont understand is that we have M4 and M5 chips yet the Mac Pro only has an M2. Whats up with that action
@alexandrebouvier7731 Says:
The Mac Pro is a Potemkin village from Apple to say they build at least one computer in their catalogue in US. Otherwise, the Mac Pro has more extension ports, a better cooling system and a rack form factor for a server room.

It exists so you can make a video out of it.
@macproguy Says:
Because it looks like a proper computer...for 1500 to 2000 more than the Studio for comparable specs
@Viewer-zs6xj Says:
So wild watching now that you can daisy chain 4 Mac studios now
@rawsportsamerica4895 Says:
how would a fully upgraded and maxed out 2019 mac pro compare to the macbook pro m4 pro or max?
@jimmybuffet4970 Says:
*The reason is PCIe slots.* 5:21
@themissinfowar6629 Says:
The only thing faster then the M2 Ultra is Marques Brownlee in a 20 zone.
@tobibu76 Says:
as we know by now... no M3/M4 even probably no M5 for MacPro
@basdenchris Says:
2 years after this video’s release, the Mac Pro is STILL on M2 Ultra and is an even WORSE value now. Marques and team, are you still using this or have you moved on to a newer studio?

Most useless logicless thing by apple 🍎😂😂😂😂😂😂
@triniticoclough6387 Says:
Here’s a question how much RAM can you put into the Mac studio 64 gigs only can you max out 128 can you go to a terabyte ram is important especially for me in the music world. As you may or may not know native instruments Kontakt literally loads into memory
@triniticoclough6387 Says:
But the problem I have is that APPLE wants to bottleneck everything into a single CHIP so you’re relying on your chip for your processing power in addition to your video but if your CPU ever goes out well there goes your video so you have to replace everything whereas if my CPU had went out, I could salvage my video card or if my video card went out my graphics card I could just get another one, but in this case if the graphics go out that’s also the CPU so I would not be able to replace the graphics without having to change also the CPUand vice versa. This is what I don’t like about APPLE’s new approach. Yes, it’s powerful hoping that it will never ever have an issue, which is stupid because computers always have issues.
@triniticoclough6387 Says:
I would buy it because of its modular. It’s a tower. I can take some things out unless the hard drive is soldered to the board and the memory is soldered to the board then I guess your point is made I just don’t like the idea of a small box and everything being proprietary.
@jordislav Says:
my theory is that M4 extreme wasnt ready so they had to essentially scrap the REAL new Mac pro
@alexblankenship7385 Says:
Why can't Apple sell one of these for much cheaper with a Max chip?
@michaelflynn7055 Says:
Coming back to this video, and it really sounds like Marques is struggling to find a reason and use for the Mac Pro to exist. Unless Apple does some radical redesign, the Mac Pro will largely be sidelined by the studio, regardless of the PCIe expansion slots
@JAKOB1977 Says:
Thats xtreme this is like 1½ year old according to stats, and it gets +2800 in single core which is mindboggling good but also a flagship device. 1:24 and now 1 yearlater people gets almost 4000 single core with a base M4 to 500 bucks. /v6/cpu/8964887
@hackerdon8304 Says:
can you no need M2 Mac Pro just give me
@mashaireowilliamson3000 Says:
Wondering if anyone has try to mod the m2 Mac pro
@shadabamarkhil780 Says:
It’s very simple: expandability! With the Mac Pro, you can install a wide range of PCIe cards-storage, networking, audio, and more-thanks to its seven PCIe slots. The powerful power supply supports high-consumption cards, making this machine ideal for professionals who need to customize and upgrade their systems. Apple designed the Mac Pro for this level of internal expansion, not just for extra ports
