When were macs ever powerful?

 

Am i missing something?

 

The current mac pros have 6-12 core Xeons and dual FirePros... they aren't exactly underpowered.

I hope my Core i5 (not the most powerful CPU ever :P) and my MSI GTX 780 Lightnings (when I get a case that can deal with 500w of heat output) would kick me up the list a little.

In all reality, as I said, using a workstation is inherently more expensive. Professional-grade components demand a premium. And yes, while a dual-Xeon WS sounds like fun, it's not for gaming. It, as most WSs are, was built specifically for what it needs to do, While gaming on it will run, consumer grade is better for that end.

 

Remember what your use case is, and build to that.

 

 

Is it better as in cost effective, or is it better as in games are better optimized for consumer grade GPU and CPU?

 

I mean, will a Quadro K6000 + Xeon E7 8890-v2 run games better than an i7 5960x and a GTX 980 despite it's MUCH more expensive or will the i7 + gtx outperform the other computer?

The Xeons will be good for gaming if you need extra threads otherwise the Core i7 will at least equal it and cost vastly less money. The GTX will always outperform the Quadro purely because of drivers, the Quadro's use the same hardware as the GeForce line.

It's better for what I do because I need those cores/threads. Games don't.

 

And as above, GTX cards are meant for sporadic use, Quadros are meant for always-on use.

The projects never end in my line of work.

Not sure if having the most expensive rig is something to be too proud of, it would be a boast short lived IMO.

I just built a Sempron 140 rig and it has 2Gb of RAM with Integrated video from the Geforce 9100 chipset, so I win.

 

It does have the coolest storage solution on LTT though. I have an ACard ANS-9010 with 32Gb of RAM, so yeah, lipstick on a pig.

Can you please come back and make this thread in about 3 weeks?

Nvidia is to Dr Dre Beets as AMD is to KFC.

One makes you broke, the other you can get more of and have a midnight snack from the fridge when hungry again. Once you go Nvidia, you go broked, turn into an Elitist, or get the incorrect amount of VRAM.

 I was only 9 years old. I loved Fifflaren so much, I had all the NiP merchandise and matches pirated. I prayed to Fifflaren every night before bed. Thanking him for the life I have been given. Fifflaren is love I say. Fifflaren is life. My dad hears and calls me a fuckhead. I knew he was just jelly of my passion for Fifflaren. I called him a Sw@yer. He hits me and sends me to go to sleep. I'm crying now, and my face hurts. I lay in bed and it's really cold. A warmth is moving towards me. I feel someone touching me. I feel someone touching me. It's Fifflaren. I am so happy. He whispers in my ear; "this is my pyjama". He grabs me with his powerful Swedish hands and puts me on my hands and knees. I'm ready. I spread my ass cheeks for Fifflaren. He penetrates my butt-hole. It hurts so much but I do it for Fifflaren. I can feel my butt tearing as my eyes start to water. I push against his force. I want to please Fifflaren. He roars a viking roar as he fills my butt with his love. My dad walks in. Fifflaren looks straight into his eyes and says; "He is a ninja now". Fifflaren is love, Fifflaren is life
