12-core Xeon workstation for professional workloads

The Apple Mac Pro MD878LL/A delivers a 2.7 GHz twelve-core Xeon E5-2697v2 processor with Hyper-Threading. Sixty-four gigabytes of 1866 MHz DDR3 ECC memory and 1 TB of PCIe-based flash storage provide capacity for large datasets. Dual AMD FirePro D500 graphics cards supply 6 GB total GDDR5 VRAM for multi-display configurations.

Replaces single-socket towers

The jump is worthwhile when applications scale across twenty-four threads and benefit from ECC memory integrity. Workloads limited to four to eight threads or reliant on single-thread frequency will not utilise the full core count. Buyers who need more storage than 1 TB or require a second GPU beyond the dual D500s should consider alternate platforms.

Sustained multi-threaded compute

The unified thermal core manages heat from the CPU and both GPUs during extended render or compute sessions. Memory bandwidth remains consistent across the four-channel DDR3 controller. GPU VRAM is fixed at 3 GB per card, limiting scene complexity in modern 3D pipelines.

Questions about this item

What are the dimensions of the Late 2013 Mac Pro cylinder so I can check desk clearance?

The Late 2013 Mac Pro uses a unified thermal core in a vertical cylinder; allow space for the 1TB PCIe Flash, four 16 GB DDR3 modules and dual D500 GPUs plus rear I/O clearance.

How do I install additional DDR3 ECC memory in the four user-accessible slots and what is the common mistake?

Open the side panel, release the memory tray, insert each 16 GB 1866 MHz DDR3 ECC module until the ejectors click; the step people miss is seating all four modules evenly so the tray slides back without resistance.

When will the 1TB PCIe based Flash storage or the dual AMD FirePro D500 GPUs need replacement?

The 1TB PCIe based Flash has no moving parts and typically outlasts the chassis; the dual AMD FirePro D500 GPUs are soldered to the main board and are not user-replaceable, so plan on a full-system refresh instead.
