Merry Christmas to us! The first of our new Mac Pro models have arrived today so testing and benchmarking and product development can begin. But first, here’s a few unboxing photos of the 3.7 GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon E5 for your visual pleasure…
OWC confirms Mac Pro 2013 processor is upgradeable.
We also connected 6 displays to the new Mac Pro and have a Mac Pro 2013 Tear Down Gallery

As always, follow the OWC Blog for industry coverage, tips, and more tricks for keeping your Apple products at their best. We’ll post back soon once we get some initial testing done on this beauty.
It needs a clear cover ;)
What are the exact external dimensions and circumference?
Thinking where this will fit.
thanks
Height: 9.9 inches (25.1 cm) – Diameter 6.6 inches (16.7 cm)
What about 12 monitors?
Each Thunderbolt port (except the one attached to the HDMI port) can be attached to a CalDigit Thunderbolt Station.
Now each Thunderbolt port can be attached to both a Thunderbolt Monitor AND an HDMI-port Monitor. TWELVE monitors in all.
It’s not about the ports.
The graphics cards only support six Thunderbolt displays or three 4K displays.
Is that polystyrene protecting the tower inside the box? Or something more bio-friendly like corn-starch based foam?
Thanks!
can you tell or do you know whether the processor can be upgraded in the base model AFTER purchase?
We’ll be doing our teardown and testing over the next few days and will report back with our findings. Too soon to tell yet.
Yes, the CPU will be upgradable as it is removable.
