A Fully Loaded $14,000 iMac Pro vs. a Fully Loaded $6,000 iMac
Is it worth upgrading to the latest fully loaded iMac Pro, which will cost you $14,000? Filmmaker Parker Walbeck recently went hands-on to find out. Here’s his interesting 4-minute video review that looks at the speed comparisons between a fully loaded iMac Pro and a fully loaded $6,000 iMac.
Walbeck found that the iMac Pro rendered about twice as fast as the iMac, but interestingly the Warp Stabilizer effect in Adobe Premiere performed 25% better on the iMac — apparently a quick that has to do with the number of cores that task utilizes.
“I definitely think there is a point of diminishing returns,” says Walbeck. “You’re going to pay a premium for the latest and greatest tech.”
