[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1719633, member: 56379"] Exactly!:) Not many apps are written to take advantage of all available cores. A lot of folks do email and internet…don't need a 12-core Mac Pro for this!;) But if using apps that are written to use all available cores…the projects will fly! But with the Mac Pro's…you do get better graphics hardware. So even if all CPU cores are not being used…the video hardware may be kicking in…and helping out.:) Still…a well equipped iMac is probably a much better value than a Mac Pro for most users.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
