I’ll be testing the iMac Pro in detail with a variety of applications starting Jan 3 at the OWC facility in Woodstock, IL. Anyone considering the iMac Pro vs 2017 iMac 5K might want to hold off just a bit—it’s not clear that the iMac Pro is better for real world tasks, and if it is better, whether it is incremental or substantial (I expect incremental).

I explain the limitations of high-core-count CPUs in Why More CPU Cores Often Run no Faster, and Sometimes Slower than Fewer CPU Cores .

At present, my full time machine has become the 2017 iMac 5K. See Switched to 2017 iMac 5K as Primary Machine: Details on Gear I’m Using.
