Not a benching program, but Handbrake reliably pushes temperatures to the max on my i7.Anyone have any good benchmarks to run to push the temps up?

For everyone who has their hands on iMac Pro, well, first off, congrats. I envy you
But I'm still holding off on purchasing one. Mostly because it's way overpowered for my needs (app developer, game dev, but not AAA+ titles, so...), and lastly, I'm waiting for some decent reviews.
Could anyone just post on how the fans work? On iMac 27, 2017 with an i7 CPU, fans are quite annoying. At least to me. Can you hear them on iMac Pro during some normal stuff like browsing, music, and some simple apps? And how about under full load?
Late last night I came down with a stomach bug
I don't think you looked through the thread...Great. What SSD model inside iMac Pro (4 TB) shows at
"Apple - About This Mac - System Report - Hardware - Storage - Physical Drive - Device Name"?
For instance, iMac 5K 27-inch shows "APPLE SSD SM2048L", which stands for SaMsung SSD 2,048 GB (2 TB). Thanks and Happy Christmas!
Thanks. Someone has the SSD 4TB version? What does it show at

Back to life (sort of!)
I was going to start testing 10Gbit tonight. I only have one cable in the house long enough to make it to my 10Gbit switch, and that's 300ft Cat 6, which isn't 10Gb spec. I tried it anyhow, and could get it to connect at 1000, 2500 and 5000 but not 10Gb.
So I ordered a good Cat7 cable and will have it in a couple of days.
Grateful for all the info you have shared thus far. Glad to hear you are feeling better.
With regard to 10Gbit networking, that's not something achievable via something like a cable modem and normal (airport extreme) router, correct? You need something like a dedicated line and special switch?
Thanks for the insight, guys. So if one is replacing an older iMac with a Pro unit and connects it to an existing home router there will be no practical gain or increased speed/bandwidth, correct?
Correct, you need a router or switch with a greater than 1GB portThanks for the insight, guys. So if one is replacing an older iMac with a Pro unit and connects it to an existing home router there will be no practical gain or increased speed/bandwidth, correct?
I am nearly 100% sure it's going to say AP4096M (where maybe the M will be something else).
I am seeing some weirdness with my iMac Pro bluetooth keyboard. Every once in a while it gets behind my typing and then essentially gets stuck. Like it's lagging on a 9600 baud dialup. I can fix it quickly by turning it off and on.
At this desk I currently have a BT mouse on my old iMac, a BT Magic Mouse on my laptop, a BT keyboard on my laptop, and the keyboard and mouse for the iMac Pro. And my phone.
So I am not sure if I'll see this in the long run. If I do, Apple's going to hear about it.
?Curious to hear if this settled or if you still experience the lag?
Strangely enough yesterday for the first time I had serious lag on my external keyboard connected to my 2015 MBP. Had to reboot the MBP.
