Re:Apple’s New Mac Pro to Be Made in Texas by michaelt on Tuesday September 24, 2019 @03:22AM (#21057397)
The only Mac with a price announced has a Xeon W-3223 and to get a fair comparison price for the Dell, I selected the Xeon W-2145.

That means the Mac has 8 cores, 3.50 GHz, 16.5 MB cache, 2666 MHz memory [1] while the Dell has 8 cores, 3.70 GHz, 11 MB cache, 2666 MHz memory [2].

So the Mac has slightly more cache, while the Dell has a slightly higher clock speed.

I'm not sure I understand how the availability of accelerator cards that aren't fitted in either machine is relevant to a price comparison?
