Hi all,
I've been waiting for an update to the Mac Pro forever (like many of you), and now I need a new system. I'm a wedding videographer running a 2011 early MacBook Pro at 2.4ghz and spending a day rendering my footage to proxy before editing.
I'd like the new iMac, but would imagine that it'll still be plagued with the heating issues that people have mentioned on here and fans running constantly.
Do you think this will still be the case? In my shoes, would you buy the updated one as soon as the store comes back up, or would you wait for the iMac Pro?
My initial thoughts are to max out the iMac now, and see the price difference. I can wait until December. I lose days editing, but I'm not that busy as yet, and so I can afford to lose a day if I'm wise here and there.
Would appreciate your input - I'm mostly interested as to whether or not this new iMac will run hot with the 8GB VRAM etc. that they're adding into it... is it a big update or not? I'm not a massive tech nerd, though I try to be. Would appreciate those who understand more about what's just been added into it.
Cheers!
