bazza_g Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Just specced up a Mac Pro on their website, bit of a dream spec admittedly but definitely a dream pricetag.......over £16,000 to people really buy systems like this? :confused: perhaps I need to review my box ticking......!

bazza_g Posted August 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 yup, if you just click happily away on the website things can quickly get very out of hand pricewise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazza_g Posted August 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 the 32GB RAM is a £5,700 option on its own and the NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600 1.5GB is another £1,800 - it all adds up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorburn Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 the 32GB RAM is a £5,700 option on its own and the NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600 1.5GB is another £1,800 - it all adds up That Quadro isn't a terrible price (not worth the money it costs when you consider you can buy a faster GeForce for £200-300, but not far off the retail price of one), but the memory is really taking the piss - should be about £1500 even at retail!
