Hi all,

I want to switch now all my workflows to MacOS. I will use the computer mainly for programming (Xcode and VisualStudio Code), Virtualization, Video Editing and maybe a bit of gaming using Bootcamp.

Due to its modularity I decided to go for a Mac Pro with the following configuration:

Hardware
  • 3.2GHz 16‑core Intel Xeon W processor, Turbo Boost up to 4.4GHz
  • 96GB (4x8GB) of DDR4 ECC memory
  • Radeon Pro W5700X with 16GB of GDDR6 memory
  • 1TB SSD storage
I will for sure update the RAM on my own, just listing the final amount here. Two questions about this configuration:

For my needs is it better to go for the Vega II ?
Can you recommend any NVME SSD module, because I want to add a Samsung EVO to the computer?

If I missed anything help would be appreciated.

Thanks guys
