If money is no object, OWC will swap 2010 or 2012 Processor shelves for whatever you want as long as you have a working Mac Pro 5,1 shelf to swap and a ton of money.

The basic charge is US$949 starting from the 2.8 Quad.
• to move up to the 3.33 hex add US$550 to the base price for a total of about US$1500.
• to move to dual Quads or dual hex ADD $1470 to $4250 to the base price.

  • Does new 2012 mac pro ssd need trim enabler

    does new 2012 mac pro ssd need trim enabler

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If they need TRIM (I think that the flash storage included with the MacBook Pro does not need TRIM), Apple turns it on by default with the MacBook.
    However, there are some people that doesn't recommend TRIM because it may hurt (rather than improve) performance > http://blog.macsales.com/11051-to-trim-or-not-to-trim-owc-has-the-answer

  • Does the new mac pro support the Apple cinema display

    Does the new mac pro support the Apple cinema display

    There is no 2007 23" Cinema Display
    There is a 2002 23" display that has the Apple ADC connector
    http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/09/AppleDisplayConnector.jpg
    There is also the 2004 23" display with a DVI connector.
    For the latter you just need a mini display port to DVI connector that plugs into the Thunderbolt port
    For the former you need that connector plu an DVI to ADC connector

    Headphone minijack with headset support
    HDMI port supports multichannel audio output
    Built-in speaker

  • Does the new MacBook Pro have an optical drive?

    Quick, easy question - does the new MacBook Pro come with an optical drive? Or does one have to purchase an external optical drive if one wants one?

    Depends on which one you buy. The Retina models do not and if you need one, have to purchase the external SuperDrive for an additional cost. The other non-Retina models, 13" and 15", do come with an internal slot-loading SuperDrive. There are, as yet, no more 17" models and no announcement whether they will be released later.

  • Does the new Mac Pro Server have lights out management?

    I would like to know if the Mac Pro Server has the LOM. Such as the ability to turn off, on, and reboot by simply using the server admin tools. I use this feture very often with my current xserve and would rather buy a new server then try and find a used 2009 xserve.

    No.

  • Will the 2012 Mac Pro boot from Snow Leopard?

    I'm contemplating upgrading my 2008, 8 core intel mac and getting a refurbished 2012 12 core 2.4 ghz mac pro. My plan, regardless of what future mac I purchased, was to keep my old maching ONLY becuase there are times I need to access my old Retrospect backups. Retrospect only works in OS 10.6.8, that is, the version of Retrospect that allows me to access my crusty old backups ;-). These backups are old client projects and can generate me $ from time to time. Anyway, I was toying with the idea of getting a newer mac, and, in the event it would actually boot from this old hard drive with 10.6.7, I would then sell the old mac. Does anyone have the answer to this?

    No. It can only boot from the OS X version it comes with. The 2012 MP requires a version of Lion. Snow Leopard does run on the 2010 model.

  • Does the new mac mini have Hdmi 1.4?

    I'm thinking about buying a Mac mini in combination with a 3D monitor but every where on the Internet they are talking about HDMI 1.4a or something like that... Is it necessary? And does the Mac mini (2012) have it?

    Not certain, but it says here that 1.4 does not support 3-D, that 1.4a is needed...

  • Does the new Mac Pro has an air filter?

    I think that if you pay this huge price from a computer, you should get an air filter too, but do you?

    The Mac Pro late 2103 does not appear to have an air filter.
    It is a departure from the forced air cooling used in previous Mac Pros to cooling largely based on the "Chimney Effect", slightly boosted by the top fan.
    It also does not have a lot of nooks and crannies to accumulate dust. But time will tell whether it needs to be blown out from time-to-time.
    I expect it will work just fine in the upright position without an air filter. If you choose to run it mounted sideways (which Apple says is allowable), that may change everything toward a more "forced-air" cooling model. In that case a lot more air may be needed, and a filter might be helpful.
    Generally speaking, users are bad about cleaning filters, and instead of being helpful, filters cause an overheating disaster.

  • Does the current Mac Pro come with OS X Lion?

    I want to buy a Mac Pro and was wondering if it has OS X 10.7, aka Lion installed already.

    They were initially selling new, old stock with 10.6.8 installed and a free upgrade (based on serial number or invoice number) to Lion via download.
    In the extremely unlikely event that you buy a Mac that was in a box at the local store before the July release date of Lion, you will get a free downlaod of Lion, just as before. You may want to perform that at the store, where they will show you how to download from their Server, much faster than at home.
    By now, all the old stock should have been sold and every Mac you buy (including refurbished from the online store) should have Lion pre-installed, but NO DVD in the box. To recover/re-Install, you need Broadband Internet or take it back to the Store and use their Internet.

  • What graphics cards does the original Mac Pro support?

    I am thinking about buying a used original 2007 Mac Pro. This Mac Pro would not come with a graphics card, so I am obviously responsible for finding one for it. I found a Radeon HD 5770 that I like on Newegg, and want to know if it would work with the Mac Pro. I really can't imagine it not, but don't want to toss a piece of hardware in my new machine that won't work.
    Here's the graphics card in question: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127490
    So, will it work? If not, is my only option for a 5770 the one that is available on the Apple Online Store? What other cards does this Mac Pro support?
    Thanks, guys (and gals)!

    http://forum.netkas.org/
    http://myworld.ebay.com/macvidcards/
    Apple's 5770 $249 for now is the 'safe' but not best in price and whether you want to run OS X ____ ? limits you also, so unless you run 10.6.5 or Lion even the 5770 is out

  • Does the new mac mini have airplay

    I have a late 2010 Mac Mini and I was looking into it the see if the new Mac Mini offered Airplay. If it did I would be looking to sell my old Mac Mini and purchase a new one sometime in the near future.

    Yes it will. Any 2011 or newer Mac mini will support it.

  • How many internal power ports does a 2009 Mac Pro Have?

    I want to add a new video card (Sapphire 7850 or the EVGA Nvdia GT680) and a USB 3.0 PCIe card.  But all the cards I find requre separate power, especially the graphics cards with require two.  So is there a third power port for the USB card available.  Or can I get some sort of splitter?

    No, I just plan to keep one video card in the machine.  Must of the PCI cards I have seen have a 4-pin connector on the board.  My guess is that it is not for the controller card, per se, but to pass power on to unpowered attachments, such as a portable drive (e.g. WD My Passports,)
    I hae a SSD drive that takes up the lower optical bay.
