Apple’s WWDC came with a LOT of great announcements, but the new Mac Pro may be the most hotly anticipated in a long time. Was it worth the wait?

Maybe that was their plan!
Perhaps – bear with me here -perhaps Apple’s target consumer group are Youtube reviewers who will buy their MacPro at any cost, just to tell the rest of us how bad of a deal it is. And the most outrageously expensive it is, the more they’ll sell. Genius!
Genius.
They better ship that stand with a stand arrow for those $999.
Stand: *doesn’t ships with any arrow*
This must be the work of an enemy stand!
they better be giving me star platinum over heaven and wet the world requiem in heaven act 69 bites the dust love train for 1000$
I’m so glad I’m not the only JoJo trash watching these.
+Jacob Pritchett Fear not brother we’re the master race here. We made Nazis into protagonists.
I think I’m gonna save up and by the Pro’ stand, first of the parts I need to build a MacPC
6:46 yeah but NVlink doesn’t mean anything in non-gaming tasks. 3d programs will use whatever vram you have available, regardless of sli/nvlink, so this very edge-case advantage isn’t really a thing.
edit: did some research and NVlink does have some advantages in high-intensity applications, that being said, my original point is still valid. For almost all non-gaming applications, like 3d work, NVlink/sli don’t really matter. The program will use whatever resources you have available.
Stand which costs $999
or
725 garlic bread which costs $999
which is better?
+Alelel_ i have just seen this meme lol
Yes?
725 garlic bread mah boiii
please stop it with the dumb memes in a attempt to get subs
47 copies of java minecraft is $999
Family: Why is the bank here taking the deed to our house?!
Me: I bought the new Mac Pro.
But why they’re taking our daughter?
+nub slayer123 I bought a MAc Pro
Linus: “iFixIt’s magnetic project mat will keep you organised, and keep your screws in place”
Demonstrator: *writes “some screws” on the mat*

Kidneys*
Sold my Mac to afford the stand…
Hahahaha
+White Rabbit yeesh be nice, it wasn’t that bad of a joke to deserve patronizing.
lol
sold my kidney to afford the monitor
+Federico Barrio Linares you have another one. I bet you’ll be fine 😀
Linus: So I’m going to by one.
Apple Repair: … intensifies
Just when you think Linus isn’t going to drop anything 6:02
Linus drop tips
Waiting for the “we got 1.5 tb of RAM” video
Every threadripper can address 2TB
So they will get the max config one? 1.5 TB is for the 24/28 core one i whould like so see a maxed out config for an actual head to head with intel and amd workstations
Apple being like: “They can’t review it and trash talk us, if it’s expensive enough!”
+Mr.Rexxyy well its not that dude trust me
can’t do dat shit without a mouse and kb
You guys need to understand that the target audience of this machine most likely is not thinking about the cost. This computer is for highly specialised purposes such as visual effects, simulation etc. The average user is not going to be doing anything even remotely close to capping this machines limits.
The stand is made from gold.
+Mr.Rexxyy Going into broadcast engineering, I’m pretty much the definition of the target consumer for this device. Trust me, at the price it’s being sold at I wouldn’t touch it with a 10 foot pole, I’d so much rather build a Threadripper machine for my organization at that point. Which is a shame, because one of the on-site professors has been waiting for a new Mac Pro to upgrade his iMac for 5 years
+Mr.Rexxyy The so-called “best machine on the planet for media creation” is $35,000. That’s not “the most expensive”, that’s “an abhorrent case of blatantly unbelievable price-gouging”.
-Recommended resolution for the 580x?
-1080?
-Sure.
Best breakdown so far of this Mac Pro. Exciting but severely overpriced.
Your name triggers some adult content vibes for some reason.
AT the end of video Linus already regretting the purchase 😀
“pedestrian 32gb of ram”
Thanks Linus, just cause I don’t have a car.
my pc still have 4 gb of ram, can’t afford to upgrade yet
+kahfi bonboy Lucky you.
Mine has 2gb.
+Om M just download some more
apple: iPhone X: $999
everyone: oh god what next
apple: hold my prices
*Pro Display Stand **_$999_*
stand + screen + basic cheese grater = 12k maybe the wheels 999 more 😬😬😬
amd threadripper ll + rtx = more power… i think 🤔🤔🤔
Galaxy Note 9 is the same price, but I guess only Apple gets the brunt of it.
+Arckanum did u actually just compare the note 9 with the iphone Xs? Cuz fam, the note 9 is better in every way and it costs more than $100 less, than the standard iphone xs…
+Adam Younes 100 less? Go look at the Samsung site right now…you will see they are still charging 999. Even the Note 8 was 950 when it first came out. Samsung plays the same game Apple does.
*Linus Tech Tips uploaded a video*
“DIY Apple Monitor Stand for under $99”
Actually its a great great opportunity for third party to sell Mac pro stand at affordable price. Imagine some Chinese company selling replacement stand around $50 .. . Most of then will buy it and save $950 !!! 😂😂😂
I would duct tape the freaking thing onto a broom before paying 1k for a goddamn monitor stand. This is an absolute outrage
Honestly, I would just buy the VESA mount and a cheaper stand.
When Apple hears that Samsung is preparing galaxy fold for $2000
Apple : Then lets sell monitor stand for half a price of the fold!
Y’all notice how Apple stopped all YouTube live streams to stop all the trash talking?🤣
