I am new to this and trying to figure out my options... I prefer Mac to Windows, but I am being told that Microstation works better in Windows based machines rather than Mac running windows. I was thinking of running a Mac Pro with the following configuration:
- 2.7GHz 12-core with 30MB of L3 cache
- 64GB (4x16GB) of 1866MHz DDR3 ECC
- 1TB PCIe-based SSD
- Dual AMD FirePro D700 GPUs with 6GB of GDDR5 VRAM each
I am going to be processing Lidar and Photogrammetry information that has high graphics processing requirements. Can anyone tell me if this MAC configuration running windows will be able to process as fast as a Windows based system?
