  6. I'm currently using the same model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-MTP-GUFF) across my three AI-capable machines: the Asus PX13, the 2019 with Vega 2, and the M2 Max .

    The fastest one is ... Vega 2 with 32GB HBM memory. I'm reliably getting 60+ tokens per second, with the M2 Max trailing with around 45-50 and the Strix Halo last at around 35-40.

  11. I was gaming on a 2019 with Vega 2 GPU, running 26.04, playing and 2077 from GOG via .

    isn’t this exactly what Mastodon is for?

  13. I put 26.04 on a 2019 (7,1) with a 32GB HBM2 Vega II GPU. It's surprisingly AWESOME for both gaming (current-gen AAA GOG games through Heroic Launcher run very very well) AND quite awesome at local AI. getting nearly 80 tokens per second was really unexpected for this nearly obsolete box. All in all, silent and pretty good. Definitely runs better than MacOS.

  17. From a graphics performance point of view, the Mac mini (M1, 2020) is roughly equivalent to a Mac Pro (D700, 2013). This is single GPU performance. The second D700 in the Mac Pro is just having a rest.

    No, I didn’t just get a lovely Mac Pro off eBay. Promise. 🤞

  21. RE: mastodon.social/@atpfm/1163296

    Listening to @siracusa talk about what #Apple should do after discontinuing the #MacPro got me thinking (maybe hallucinating :-) ) about what they could do technically.

    So here is my phantasy rollout scenario [A-G]:

  22. A good friend, here in Portland, gave me his old Mac Pro a few years ago (during the pandemic). This design, introduced in 2003, went on for what… 10 years? This particular machine is from 2008. Still gorgeous. Timeless design. Love it. Thank you, friend. (You know who you are.) #MacPro

  26. Apple discontinúa el Mac Pro tras dos décadas de historia

    Apple ha anunciado oficialmente el cese de producción del Mac Pro, su computadora más potente y emblemática, marcando el cierre de un capítulo de 20 años dedicado a los profesionales más exigentes del sector creativo.

    https://twitter.com/markgurman/status/2037274657590595959

    La noticia ha sacudido a la industria tecnológica: el Mac Pro, el estándar de oro para la edición de video de alto nivel, el renderizado 3D y la ingeniería de software en el ecosistema de Apple, llega a su fin. Tras dos décadas de evolución —desde las torres de aluminio «rallador de queso» hasta el polémico diseño cilíndrico y la actual arquitectura con silicio propio—, la compañía de Cupertino ha decidido retirar el modelo de su catálogo. Esta decisión responde a un cambio estratégico donde el Mac Studio ha logrado canibalizar el mercado profesional, ofreciendo un rendimiento equiparable en un formato mucho más compacto y eficiente.

    A lo largo de sus 20 años, el Mac Pro representó la máxima capacidad de expansión y potencia bruta de la marca. Sin embargo, la transición a los chips Apple Silicon (M-Series) cambió las reglas del juego; al estar la memoria y los componentes integrados en un solo SoC, la naturaleza modular que definía al Mac Pro perdió parte de su propósito original. Apple ha señalado que, aunque el hardware dejará de venderse, los usuarios actuales seguirán recibiendo soporte técnico y actualizaciones de macOS durante los próximos años, garantizando la inversión de los estudios que aún dependen de estas estaciones de trabajo.

    El adiós al Mac Pro no significa que Apple abandone al sector profesional, sino que redefine cómo estos acceden a la potencia. Con el fortalecimiento del ecosistema de escritorio profesional a través de monitores de alta resolución y unidades de procesamiento ultra-eficientes, la empresa busca simplificar su línea de productos. Para los entusiastas y nostálgicos, esta retirada marca el fin de la computadora más icónica y costosa de la era moderna de Apple, dejando un legado de innovación en diseño industrial y rendimiento computacional.

  28. It never made sense to me that the Mac Pro “had” to change away from this general design. A well-designed computer can be respected as art, but its primary purpose is still to be a computer. An all-in-one box that can be thrown in the car between gigs. Just plug in a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and your audio inputs, cameras, whatever it is you do with it. No fiddly external devices needed. The only complaints I ever heard are that it’s a bit heavy and the handles dig into your hands.

    Post-Steve Jobs comeback Apple was able to pull off making their towers an art piece *and* a functional workhorse. Why did Tim Cook-era Apple overlook and fail to make this balance? They killed the market for the product and only just started to win some of those customers back with Apple Silicon, but not without making a mess of the driver infrastructure, and making discrete GPUs impossible. This is after they broke the cadence of yearly Mac Pro refreshes to make way for 6 years of the Thermal Corner™ cylinder model, making a bet (dual GPUs with custom cooling) that wasn’t that useful to its customers, and would overheat and die.

    Why spend more to invest in the Mac platform when Dell would love to sell you a boring Windows tower that’s unopinionated and does what you need?

  32. Lilbits: The Mac Pro reaches the end of the line

    Apple is pulling the plug on the Mac Pro, more than 20 years after launching its first high-performance desktop computer with an iconic “cheese grater” design. The company has released several major updates over the years, but the last big change to the design came in 2019, and the last processor update came in 2023 when the company made the move from Intel to Apple Silicon.

    But the newer Mac […]
