Buying Mac Pro Advice

Hi,

I am looking to upgrade to a Mac Pro for working with Resolve. I will not be able to afford the new mac pro that's coming out. Do you think the price of the current pro will significantly drop once the new one is released? I'm just debating if I should wait to buy or if I should order it now.


Thanks for the help!

I dont know how people on this board feel about it, but many of us, myself included, have gone the hackintosh route. I have a custom built Mac I run and it is a great machine, I love it. I use an i7 3770K, with a Thunderbolt mother board 32GB Ram etc... I have my decklink and all my mac accessories working with it along with Resolve in an up-to-date Mountain Lion Environment. It is worth a look, and I cant imagine not building my own hacked Mac now. I do have my MBP though that will always be a real Mac.
