Default Re: 2019 MacPro GPU: Radeon Pro W5500X w/8gb VS. Radeon Pro W5700X W/16gb

It is a good stopgap, but maybe better not spending anything more on the Intels. The new Apple Silicons are BEAST on graphic rendering, you cannot even compare the GPU performance of the best chips, provided you have native software installed.

Example: "Hey I have this 3hr video mix render that I missed a 10sec dialogue which was left muted... how to fix?"
Answer: "Easy. Just fix it and re-render"
Argument: "But it takes ages..."
Counter: "It takes more time to send the project on this Apple Silicon, unless you already have it on TB3 external."
Wondering: "I actually have it on TB3 external"
Conclusion: "Gimme. Open it, do your fix. Okay, done. Rendering. What the.. 90 seconds?"
