I guess with the MacBook Pro, you get a great performance for a small, portable form factor. Generally, desktop machines are more powerful than notebooks, which makes the comparison kind of weird. The Ryzen and the i9 from the MacBook Pro might have an overall similar performance. In terms of the CPU, a high single-core clock-speed might be better for Rhino, than a high number of cores (?). I don’t know if Rhino prefers “gaming” GPUs or runs better on the workstation hardware though? I mean that’s a no-brainer really! You’ve doubled the amount of memory and planned for a full-size beast of a GPU.

Performance-wise the custom PC would be stronger. I’m more of a Maya guy myself, which by the way runs flawlessly on macOS. Polymodelling and rendering seems to work great though. I haven’t messed around with Blender a lot, but I find it to be a slow app at least for procedural, script-driven projects, but hey it’s free. I use Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator myself. The Adobe apps always work great on Macs with decent specs, though Premier might be an exception. I’d recommend you to think about what you use most and absolutely need and research or ask if it’s available. LunchBox, Pufferfish, Weaverbird, Anemone, etc.) are available though. It’s true though that Grasshopper has less compatible plugins. Worksessions is currently also not implemented on Mac, but Dark Mode and Versions are Mac exclusive. Here are the commands that currently aren’t available.

There are some minor bugs in the current version of Rhino for Mac, but the support from guys like is superb, and updates are released all the time.įrom what I can tell, Rhino for Mac is nearly on par with the Windows version.

I do mostly architectural and design modelling and lots of Grasshopper. I use a maxed out MacBook Pro (late 2016, 2.9 GHz i7, 16GB RAM, Radeon Pro 460) and Rhino/Grasshopper runs totally fine. Do you prefer macOS or Windows? What I wouldn’t do, is buy a MacBook Pro to run Windows on it. In your case, it pretty much comes down to which operating system you prefer to use.
