Mac Pro 2019 Tower/Casing/Design  

The first thing you are going to notice is its aluminum housing with little cheesegrater design. Apple says that the lattice pattern found on the Mac Pro tower is a naturally occurring phenomenon found in molecular crystal structures. The new Mac Pro 2019 design has a purpose besides just looking good it actually optimizes the airflow maximizing the Mac Pro’s thermal capacity that is super important when you have 28-core CPU and multiple dual GPUs inside.

The white strips beneath the handle act as antennas, similar to the antenna lines on iPhone. On top, it has a little power indicator, a power button, and two thunderbolt ports. A little latch in between is used to remove the aluminum housing and access the internal components. You don’t need screws to open you can just grab the latch, twist it and lift the case up.

The great thing about this case is that it provides the unobstructed 360-degree access to the interior component. That makes maintaining and installing system components much easier. 

The dual-sided logic board makes it super easy to access the components. On one side of the board, you will find the processors, the graphics and PCIe expansions. On the opposite side, you see storage and memory.

Apple uses three axial fans to move air across the CPU & GPUs to cool them. That means the MPX GPU modules don’t need dedicated fans.

Display Independency

Whereas with the Mac Pro 2019 you are not forced to have that 5k display on your desktop if you don’t want it.
