#MAC PRO 5.1 PCIE USB3 UPGRADE#

Can't afford (or don't want to pay) for a new Mac and i really don't get on with windows and like using Logic. I don't think that's such a big deal TBH.ДЇor me it was a no brainier.

Even then you'll still be able to use it, just won't be able to upgrade the software. Obviously Apple will stop supporting it but it'll be while after until developers stop supporting the old operating system. Hardly notice it most of the time (although these days I tend to work mostly with headphones as my music making is confined to the early hours of the morning). The 12 core would have cost me around ВЈ2000.ДЄs far as noise is concerned, it's not too bad. I'm starting to think that I should have gone 12 core as my first project I've started with it is already pushing it (had to increase the buffer size a couple of times already). It was refurbished to allow the latest os to be installed and cost me ВЈ1500. I would ideally like to get at least 3-4 years of useful life out of any new computer, ideally more. What would be the likely lifespan of such a machine, already 7 years old? My MacBook Pro is 6 years old now. Am I going to be limited in single core CPU power for some software?

I've heard about some issues with PCI cards and Sierra. Which CPU? The prices for 3.06Ghz X5675s are good, it how would this compare with the 3.33 or 3.46? It would work out cheaper than a new PC and much cheaper than a new Mac. I want some expansion capabilities in regards to memory, storage and some more CPU power.ДЄm I foolish to consider a refurbished 2010 Mac Pro 5.1 in 2017? Macbank seem to supply them for good prices with a warranty. I run Logic Pro X with Komplete and some additional orchestral libraries. I would prefer to stay with a Mac as I like Logic, but I am looking into PC options as well.Д«udget is a consideration and I am a hobbyist. It has served me well, but I am starting to reach the limits of the machine. I am considering upgrade options for my 2011 MacBook Pro.
