No, not just aesthetics.

This thing was a beast and literally had upto 12 core Xeons and super sexy. Super sexy hard drive caddies, expandable PCIe slots, 2 DVD/BD slots....and so on.

No PC has ever matched it.

What's interesting is I still see people use this with GTX1080s.

This is what you PC fags don't get. It's not about "equal" it's about better, which the Mac is and PCs are not.

LMFAOOOOO find me one with timeless aesthetics.

This design is more than 10 years old and it's still miles better than any PeeSee out there, inside and out.

2x 6 core Xeons. And since you can't overclock, just one of them in a PC is nearly as fast. A single Threadripper would absolutely slaughter two of them, even overclocked to the max on one of these.

>>61927275
That's just silly. I would never put a GPU as powerful as a 1080 in my system, even with a massive overclock the bottleneck would be enormous. I love my Xeon, but lets not overstate its capabilities. Mac users stick 1080s in theirs because the only other option is a nearly as outdated throttling trashcan

>Are you insane?
Why?

It's pretty expandable. Has many PCIe slots and HDD slots (via sexy caddies).

You can run Wangblows on it too if you want, but I wouldn't recommend it.

It's the quietest/coolest case I've ever used.
>>
>>61928003
I've seen many cases and motherboards with more expansion slots and 3.5" bays.
>>
>>61928003
4 HDD bays, fewer than the average mid tower case
4 PCIe slots, fewer than a standard ATX board

PCIe 2.0
USB 2.0
SATA 2.0
>>
>>61927918
Even for non-game tasks. Westmere is a monster overclocker, but it comes with very low clocks out of the box and the Mac Pro is stuck with those.

Been looking around for something like this that can take ATX components. Supermicro and such have some cases with drive caddies and SATA/SAS backplanes, but they're not as beautiful as your example. Almost everything somewhat worthwhile these days is geared for gamers and watercooling. They've become so inconvenient to work with. Something as simple as adding or replacing a drive have become a chore with cable management and hidden away drive mounts.

I think I will try to find the case of an old workstation on ebay or something.

Controlling airflow. Only needing a few fans to cool as many key components as possible. My Poweredge T410 has only one fan (except for the two in the power supplies) that cools both CPUs, memory, chipset, and takes care of the overall case airflow. Has a plastic cover that you can pop off when you need to access components that are attached to the motherboard. It is very common for servers and workstations to do stuff like this.

From what i've seen, it's a popular case at times, but it needs a lot of cutting and modding to be used by regular PC's, since it has a weird internal config.

Picked up two 3,1 Mac Pros from 2008 three years ago that a lab was dumping.

>3.2 ghz Xeons
>16 gb ECC DDR2 (amazing 800 MHz)
>early SSD
>three Velociraptor 10k RPM HDDs

Stuck a 980ti in one and a 970 in the other. Can't complain for the price of nothing even if the Core 2 Duo era Xeons are bottlenecking the GPUs. Pretty not shit for nearly 10 year old workstations.
Shame Apple released literal trash for the newest Mac Pro. Never seen one used by a lab when the earlier Mac Pros were a fixture.
