PCAdvisor: Apple Mac Pro Eight-Core/2.26GHz (2009 edition) review

PCAdvisor:

"The new Apple Mac Pros, with their cutting-edge Nehalem processor technology, are able to execute more tasks at a faster clip, despite lower processor speeds. And their new internal design makes adding hard drives, memory cards, and PCI Express 2.0 cards easier than ever. Apple's most expandable Mac is the pro platform for power users. With its improved graphics, memory bandwidth, and reduced memory latency, the 2.66GHz quad-core Mac Pro was faster than the 2.8GHz eight-core Mac Pro, and at £1,899 costs £600 less. It would be a fine purchase for anyone replacing an older Mac or buying a new one for the first time. That is especially true for people who work with processor intensive apps such as video or graphics. It's harder to recommend that people spend £600 more for the new £2,499 2.26GHz eight-core Mac Pro if they don't run software written for the top-of-the-line Mac Pro's eight processor cores. Although the 2.26GHz model was faster at most individual tasks than the previous eightcore 2.8GHz Mac Pro, and very fast in a few of our professional applications tests, it was slower than the new quad-core model at the majority of our application tests."
