Re: [Avid-L2] Who needs the new Mac Pro when there's this…

 

FWIW, if you want yo build your own you're looking at about $500 for the motherboard, $2,200 each for the CPUs, about $400-600 for the RAM (depending on brand), $1,700 for the K5000 and $3,500 for the Tesla K20... Then there's about $250-300 for a pair of 120GB SSDs and another few hundred for the hard drives. The Chassis is a bargain at only $160, and you'll expect to pay another $150 for power supply and then another $300 or so for the water cooling kit.

So that's about $12,000 to build it yourself, not including software costs etc... A bargain!! :)

It's getting really hard to make any argument for a Macpro now. The performance in Adobe tools is day and night.
