While we sit around and wait for Apple to in conclusion release anew Mac Prowith Apple silicon ( youpromised , Apple ) , we can pose and reminisce about Mac Pros of yore . ( I know , nothing will cease us from reminiscing even after Apple releases a new Mac Pro , but humor me . ) And the one Mac Pro that Mac substance abuser love to hate is the2013 Mac Pro , dearly called the “ Trash Can ” Mac because of its resemblance to the receptacle and the impression of detestation user had toward it .
But over clock time , those intuitive feeling have turned to appreciation , and peradventure you ’ve become so doting of it now that you like you may grease one’s palms one . Well , we have good news for you : you may still buy a 2013 Mac Pro direct from Apple with a full one - yr warranty . And best of all , you’re able to pay for it in British pounds .
Are you sold ? Then head on over to the Apple Refurbished and Clearance Store on the Apple U.K. internet site . There you will find a2013 Mac Pro for £ 5,149(about $ 6,400 in U.S. dollar mark ) with its blue-blooded Add to Bag release just shout at you to click it .
What does all that money get you ? A 12 - pith , 2.7GHz Intel Xeon E5 , 64 GB of RAM , 1 TB SSD , and dual AMD FirePro D700 graphics processors with 6 GB of GDDR5 VRAM each . This is the maxed - out model that was available when the 2013 Mac Pro was introduced , and its original Mary Leontyne Price ( which I actuallywrote about nearly 10 years ago ) was $ 9,599 in the U.S. So you save nearly $ 3,000 !
One downside , however : You ca n’t install macOS Ventura on it since Apple barricade supporting Mac Pros made prior to 2019 . So noStage Managerfor you .

Apple ’s freshen up products go through a “ strict renovation process prior to sale , ” so this Mac Pro will surely be in like - new condition , even after all this time . Apple even tender AppleCare for £ 299 ! However , it looks like this U.K. store offers destitute manner of speaking and in - memory board pick - up only in the U.K.–but if you call Apple with a packet of cash I ’m sure shipment to the U.S. can be arranged .
The 2013 Mac Pro might be Apple ’s most infamous Mac . Apple ’s interpretation of a mini tower created quite astirwith its alone cylindrical design , the amount of processing major power in its compactness , and its want of expandability . Apple finally returned to an expandable tower designin 2019 , but the 2013 simulation left an indelible mark on the diligence .
