In this video, I dive deep into the legendary 2013 Mac Pro, a machine that stunned the world with its futuristic trash can design. But was it all looks and no brains?

I take apart this high-end configuration featuring an Intel Xeon E5-2697 v2, a massive 64GB of RAM, and dual AMD FirePro D700 GPUs (HD 7970 equivalents). We'll explore what went wrong, what Apple got right, and whether this iconic piece of tech was ahead of its time—or just a beautiful failure.

From thermals and design flaws to real-world performance in 2025, I put this forgotten powerhouse to the test!

🔧 Tearing it down, testing games and pro apps, and pushing it to the limit. Don’t miss it!
