Windows 8 Pro Computer

8GB SDRAM is much better than 4GB in my DELL desktop computer.

Use with computer with windows 7 pro. Creative Z sound card.Intel DH87MC mother board and I7-4770 processor.

I use this on my MacBook Pro 15 and Windows gaming computer and it worked fast copying to/from when I don't want to hook up a big SSD drive and carry that around.

This is the fastest, coolest (temperature), and versatile computer I have owned. I have owned various MacBook Pro's (Intel era), iMacs and MacPros (cheese grate), so I know a little about OSX computers. I use Parallels sometimes to run Windows 11 Pro, and this computer does not disappoint. I use CT scans for work, and can seamlessly use the same software at work (Intel PCs with Nvidia RTX cards) vs. my ARM version Windows 11 Pro in virtual machine simulation. Manipulation of these 3D renders is comparable in speed (even though the software explicitly states that it was not optimized to use ARM chips). Haven't found anything that really slows it down. The computer is mostly cool all the time. The fans barely quick up, if at all, so it is really quiet.  But most importantly, I use this computer day in and day out, and most of the time I can use it all day for three to four days before it is down to the 20-30% range where I start feeling anxious and then I plug it in. Charge up is super quick as well -- I think less than an hour to fully charge to 100% from a really low state of charge. So this is the first computer that I feel comfortable calling portable since I don't have to worry so much about finding a plug somewhere. For sure, a well built solid machine. The only cons I have to report is the weight -- I put a clam shell clear protector (which was not that heavy), but I feel that this laptop could be used as a weapon to defend myself if I had to (like the really old IBM mechanical keyboards if you are from my generation). Also, I think there is a small defect on the edge of my screen in the super thin black surround frame which is a purely cosmetic annoyance. I didn't bother to claim warranty on this since I figure it does not really affect the computer's functions. Overall, I would buy it again, although I probably would wait for the M4 that is coming out soon. Kudos to Apple again for creating such a nice piece of hardware.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the 500-gigabyte version for my brand new Windows 11 computer. To be honest, I only wanted the 980 Pro. I went through a lot of information for many flagship M.2 drives of various manufacturers and for me, the 980 Pro seemed to be the best. From the first day, I installed this drive on my computer and installed the Windows system on it, it worked without any problems. My 980 Pro works blazing fast and without any bit of problems. The temperature in this drive is always noticeably lower under load than in my other drive from another manufacturer.

8 x Splitter works as described. Great unit.

I could not upgrade the firmware from Godox through my windows 10. So after a computer professional looked over the situation said that Windows 10 would not recognize the upgrade due to the time Godox wrote the firmware upgrade. He used Windows 7 and the firmware upgrade worked.

I highly recommend Windows 11 Pro.

As a Windows Refugee this Mac Pro blows any windows PC out of the water! The Dual XEON 2.4 GHtz 8-Core processors, ATI Radeon HD5870 Video Card, three Western Digital 1TB HDD's, Pioneer Blu-Ray 12X Internal Burner, Apple DVD Internal Burner makes this machine handle anything I throw at it!

I love my laptop, its fast and works great. My desktop is Windows 7 pro and this comes with windows 8.1 home. I just need to upgrade it to pro and I'm good to go.
