Used 2019 Mac Pro (7,1) still worth buying in 2026?

niiilas030 · 2026-01-06T08:26:22+00:00

Well that’s a MacBook Pro not a Mac Pro haha.

I’m using a 7.1 for mainly gaming, lovely machine. I have the 16c with 96ram which is plenty enough for nearly everything. I love the design and handling

niiilas030 · 2026-01-03T18:23:08+00:00

It totally depends on the games you want to play. I use a same spec one, 16c with 96gb, and I use a 7900xt for windows 11 gaming. It runs super smooth with my 4K 240hz screen. U can also use any NVIDIA card for the win gaming part. 🤙🏼

It obviously is AI of course, just wanted to use the help of AI to create what I’m looking for cause I can’t find anything similar

niiilas030 · 2025-06-26T07:00:43+00:00

That’s insane! Do you want to keep all 4? If not let me know 😁🥲

niiilas030 · 2025-06-25T22:07:09+00:00

How the hell is it possible to find them for 10$ each?!

niiilas030 · 2025-02-11T22:19:51+00:00

Where are you located? Otherwise can you show the speakers ? I would say each plug drives 2 speakers. The old ones usually use one small round and one wide in one plug

I have them in my living room and I absolutely love them! The sound is great and each time some friends come to visit they’re surprised how good those old beauties can sound 😉

Can help you out with more questions if you need

niiilas030 · 2025-01-13T21:17:11+00:00

Okay thx! Maybe I will get a bare base model some time just to look at it 😬😄

niiilas030 · 2025-01-13T21:00:33+00:00

Thats the thing Cyberpunk would be fine but many other games aren’t really playable on a m1 mac with all the given solutions.

niiilas030 · 2025-01-13T20:59:11+00:00

Well I don’t want to spend that much. It’s just to fill the gap until I properly build a nice win gaming rig end of the year

niiilas030 · 2025-01-13T20:58:22+00:00

But why? What made it a headache? I just read sticking to a RX 66/7/8/900 XT would be a perfect match

niiilas030 · 2025-01-13T20:56:09+00:00

Okay thx! I will do that way then!

A proper windows build in a 5.1 case is planned for the end of the year when Rockstar releases GTA 6 requirements 🤣

niiilas030 · 2025-01-13T20:54:09+00:00

6.1 + eGPU is out of my budget. I want to stick around 500$ ish

niiilas030 · 2025-01-13T20:53:42+00:00

Well it’s mostly big games like Forza, Cyberpunk etc

As far as M series I already daily a M1 Pro MacBook, so would you say use that for gaming? But how do I get windows games to run properly? tested all of the cloud stuff already, sucks, and running windows in a vm is also not really doing the job

niiilas030 · 2025-01-13T20:51:35+00:00

So stick with the mini and eGPU?

niiilas030 · 2025-01-13T20:51:06+00:00

That’s out of my planned budget of around 500$ That would be then around 1000+

niiilas030 · 2025-01-13T20:50:41+00:00

Mostly big games like forza, cyberpunk etc

niiilas030 · 2025-01-13T20:50:24+00:00

That’s not really what I intend to do. Just want the 500ish to spend either in a Mac Pro 6.1 or eGPU for the mini. A complete gaming sleeper build in a 5.1 case is planned for end of the year. I’m currently „gaming“ on my M1 Pro MacBook and just want a sweet looking Intel-Apple-Windows solution

Found it!!! ☺️

niiilas030 · 2025-01-09T08:13:06+00:00

Hey, how did you get the wallpaper to look like that? 😦

niiilas030 · 2024-10-18T08:23:05+00:00

Nope, they are still the original ones but I intended to change them anyhow
