MP 1,1-5,1 Mac Pro 5,1 fans ramping up after chime
Hello everyone! So I got a Mac Pro 5,1 (not 4,1) and it gives me nothing but problems so far. At first, I used a 5,1 backplane with a 4,1 CPU tray, which obviously makes the fans spin at 100%. Now, I got a 5,1 CPU tray and it still does the same thing, just different now. Now, the fans don't... -
MP 7,1 W6800X Duo worth it for 2000 Euros?
Hello everyone, Someone just offered me a Radeon Pro W6800X Duo MPX for the Mac Pro for 2000 Euros. This is probably the hardest GPU to get, and I am strongly considering it right now. To further elaborate: Right now, I have two Vega IIs. I removed one of the Vega II to make room for the... -
MP 7,1 Stuck in internet recovery ater upgrading SSD in Mac Pro 7,1
Hello everyone, So I just upgraded my 2019 Mac Pro from a 4TB SSD to an 8TB SSD. It was a system pull, and only had 22 TB written to it and under 20 hours of total use which is insane, so I decided to upgrade since the storage on my 4TB was running out anyways. Besides, I got it for completely... -
MP 7,1 So what are your thoughts on the Promise Pegasus R4i?
I recently bought another Mac Pro (8-Core, 96GB, 8TB Apple SSD, Pro Vega II, Afterburner) and it came with a Promise Pegasus R4i with 32TB of HDD storage. I am planning on selling my other Mac Pro, and put the 12-Core CPU from that into this Mac Pro, since the one I just bought is a newer... -
Resolved [Help] Is my USB port dead on Mac Pro 5,1? [Resolved-ish With Workaround]
Looking to see if anyone has experience with diagnosing an issue with the built in USB 2.0 ports on the rear of the MP5,1. Of the 5 USB 2.0's, the two front facing work perfectly and when tested with a USB tester read 5.08 volts. Of the 3 rear ports, the two outside ports work well but the... -
MP All Models Apple killed the Mac Pro on purpose
So this is something I've been thinking about for a while now, and my theory was proven right by Apple's decision to discontinue the Mac Pro. In 2013, Apple released the trashcan Mac Pro, a machine that's now loved by enthusiasts, but back then every professional hated the thing. And for a... -

MP 7,1 looking for Infinity Fabric Link Jumper 923-03852 (for W6800x duo)
Recently I realized the imperfection in my Mac Pro 7.1: I got a used W6800x duo about two years ago, but that comes without the infinity fabric link jumper or infinity fabric link bridge. I have searched all of places for this component... -

MP 7,1 7,1 bros, how is Tahoe holding up so far?
So everyone has been complaining about Tahoe so far, especially the 7,1 users such as myself. But since these past few updates and ever since I upgraded from the RX 580X to a 6900XT I feel like Tahoe is running extremely well on my 7,1. I do not feel like it is lagging or sluggish, even the... -
MP 14,8 Anyone here upgraded from the 7,1 to the M2 Ultra?
So I've been playing with the idea of upgrading to the M2 Ultra Mac Pro at the end of the year for a while now. I know, technically speaking for almost 15,000$ in Germany there are possibly way better options and it probably is an insanely bad value for money, I do absolutely realize that. But... -
MP 7,1 How can I get the 8TB modules for the Mac Pro?
So I want to upgrade my 2019 Mac Pro to 8TB of SSD storage, thus replacing the 2x2TB Apple modules I currently have installed. However, it doesn't matter where I look, I cannot find a single kit out there. The only thing I could find was the SSD kit for the 2023 Mac Pro. I contacted a friend... -
MP 7,1 Anyone tried new Studio Display (XDR) with 2019 Mac Pro?
Hello everyone! Has anyone tried the new Studio Display or Studio Display XDR on the Mac Pro 7,1 yet? Can't find anything anywhere, so I'm wondering whether it works or not, since Apple did not list it in the compatibility chart! -
MP 7,1 Advice on buying/upgrading 2019 Mac Pro
Hello everyone! I am considering getting a brand new and sealed Mac Pro 2019 (96GB RAM, 4TB Apple SSD, 580X, 12 Core) and upgrading it until I reach the max config that cost an arm and a leg back in 2019. Now, after Apple drops support for Tahoe I would most likely only use Windows 11 from... -

Struggling to decide: iPad Pro OLED vs MacBook Pro vs waiting for MacBook Air M5
I’ve been going back and forth on this for weeks and could really use some real-world opinions. Right now I’m using an older iPad Pro (3rd gen) and a MacBook Air M2. Both still work fine, but the batteries are clearly getting weaker, so I’m thinking about replacing them — ideally without...- Electixs

MP All Models TPM 2.0 / fTPM / PPT & The 7,1 Mac Pro.
Context: I am using a Mac Pro 7,1 2019, running Windows 10 LTSC IoT and play games on it. NOTE: Windows 11 TPM Bypass is irrelevant, as the software itself checks for the hardware / firmware beyond just what operating system is installed. With many programs now requiring TPM 2.0 to operate on...- Nautricity
