Worth replacing 2008 Mac Pro for upgraded 2010 Mac Pro?
Well, I have a Mac Pro 2010 12 core 3.33 ghz (2010 not 2009 flashed) coming with 64 GB of RAM - got a deal on it - $1,470 shipped (has a 5770 vid card, an 240 GB SSD and 1 TB drive which I don't really care about). I'll definitely consider the M.2 on the PCIe card - great tip! I'm hoping that going from a geekbench multicore score of 11,000 on my 2008 Mac Pro to over 30,000 on this new machine will equate to being able to set the hardware buffer lower for lower latency tracking with native plugins. Of course, I could be totally wrong. I'll report back my results.
