neon1 AMD 5950x
4 6900xt
8 PCIE4 Samsung NVme Drives in RAID 0 for a theoretical speed of 70gbps
1600w PSUwouldn't be faster than a Dual Xeon Pro but you could get a 64 core Threadripper and beat it in Multicore CPU perfomance
here are some benchmarks of the $7000 Mac Pro vs a $2000 CPU you can build a $3200 Hackintosh with

look the single AMD chips beats the 2 Intel chips while using far less power
the Mac Pro isn't that great until Apple can get their own Chip in itanything Intel in 2020-21 is outdated Tech at this point
when the mac pro gets the m1 on steroids with proper cooling

theyre not even better for security anymore... mac's have had more known vulnerabilities than windows machines in the past couple years
Dec 8, 2020Unix based anything is better than s*** Windows.
Can’t do s*** in that trash command line. Programming in general is just so much better on Mac.

Windows has terrible security.. nothing is containerized so apps can easily steal your data and send it god knows where. Also it's a mess, after long enough a Windows install becomes unusable. The way the whole OS works is so outdated. Unix based Operating System are so much more reliable and almost always offer better long term performance.
its so ass. ive never had so many issues updating my machine as I did with windows. I can use a 2012 mac and update it to the latest OS no questions asked....

Idk about that man, backdating a mac to an old OS is pretty atrocious. Additionally finding an older version of a program for an old OS I have also found to be pretty difficult.

It used to not be that way. Apple wasn't always the standard. They're great at designing aesthetically pleasing products and marketing them.
With that said, Apple products are satisfying to use and definitely have a great deal of quality to them. What I despise, though, is how Apple seems to introduce certain features that complicate things and are rather gimmicky. I have a 2016 MacBook Pro.
I'm not so fond of the Touchbar because it's actually not all that useful; I prefer actual buttons to control volume, brightness, and keyboard lighting.
The butterfly keyboard mechanism was a total failure. Four keycaps have fallen off, and it's a pain trying to replace and repair. I gave up and got myself a Bluetooth mechanical keyboard to use with it instead. For now, my MacBook Pro acts as a desktop computer held by a laptop stand as I use a separate mouse and a separate keyboard instead. I'm glad they got rid of the butterfly keys for the newer MacBooks, but it's too bad I'm stuck with this problem.
