  1. Well, fun project but the eGPU enclosure is so big that you can have a ITX MB in it. Take a small factor PC case, build an insane powerful PC for cheap and use it as an Hackintosh. It will be smaller, faster, with H264 and H265 hardware encoding, ultra fast nvme SSD, lates NVidia or AMD GPUs… but i love the design of the Trashcan but without the eGPU… too bad about the D700 x 2… I had to sell mine few month ago

  2. I just stumbled across this video and wanted to mention if you didn't know, the trash can won't utilize all the processor cores when running a benchmark. I ran into this when testing mine, if you run it from bootcamp windows, windows will utilize all the processor cores. It's something to do with Mac OS Vs Windows and how they control the processor cores. You will get a higher benchmark using Windows…..

  3. This is a really entertaining video, as I can tell you're having a lot of fun with these upgrades. 🙂
    I finally acquired a 2013 trashcan Mac Pro last year for a bargain price, and upgraded it with 64 GB of RAM and a 2 TB NVMe SSD.
    I'm not fussed about upgrading the trashcan Mac Pro's quad-core CPU — I lack the parts and confidence — but I AM awaiting a 3.46 GHz six-core CPU tray for my 2010 cheesegrater Mac Pro.
    With this CPU tray, I will have upgraded every major part of the computer — four-core to six-core CPU, 48 GB RAM, RX 580, 1 TB NVMe SSD — and I can't wait.

  4. I have one of these maxed out. I have two Thunderbolt Displays and a 4K monitor that can be ran at 60hz. Unfortunately I have to use the 4K monitor with the hdmi port that can only put out 4K 30hz. I was using an egpu that was able to run power the display at 60hz but when using it for watching 4K videos would lag. The monitor isn’t thunderbolt but it has mini display which should work and display port which the Mac Pro doesn’t have. I love my computer. If I can find the right mini display cable to connect my 4K monitor to my mac without a glitchy screen and no egpu that would be great

  5. Just got a Mac Pro 2013 for free! It is the base model.. I would like to upgrade to twelve cores but I seems so damn hard from what I have seen! I have a Mac Mini M1 but I always loved the look of the Mac Pro and I just could not say no when it was offered to me for nothng. My plan is to use it for older plugin that will not be upgraded to Apple silicon. But will it give me much more power for music production with twelve cores then the four in the base model ?

  6. 3:12 what display you have there? I just brought a 27’ Apple Thunderbolt Display to connect to Mac Pro 2013 tried connecting to my EGPU it won’t display picture. An my extend cable is mini display port to display port on back of GPU. Never mind just that not a Thunderbolt Display you in video

  7. Mac Pro 2013 Mantiz Venus MZ-02 -5x usb 3.0 ports, a ethernet port, and a ssd mount. The thunderbolt connection also allows 100 watts of power delivery,MSI Air Boost Vega 56 with 8gb of HBM2 memory.
    512gb SSD

    I want to get a eGPU for my MacBook Pro 2011, since apple ship it with a faulty gpu

  8. I upgraded mine to 12 core, 128GB RAM, installed the Amfeltec SSD expansion module, upgraded the SSD to 2TB OWC, along with another supplemental 2TB Samsung SAD. The only thing I haven’t done is the eGPU, which doesn’t seem worthwhile.

  9. I totally agree, the amount of work to make apple things work correctly just makes you question if it will be worth it. On the other hand, you do have the worlds nicest flower pot, right? 😂
