The 2013 units are already outdated and there's no signs of any updates coming down the pipeline.
I have a couple of 8 GPU systems for 3d work and am currently modifying one of them. It all depends on whether you do or expect to make money with the system. Of course, you could build a system into which you can use up to four 3d capable GPU rendering cards for just a little more cash. If you want the newest, stable card(s), then get GTX Titan Black(s). Expect to pay between $300 to $700 dollars for each 6G GPU. You'll have to shop carefully because those within the 3d rendering community all know how good these cards are and thus they sell quickly. They each have 6Gs of Vram so that you can even do 4k renders if you're so inclined. I recommend these cards highest because of their speed, price, stability on the Mac, and large Vram size for doing large format renders. Depending on how much rendering power (number and kind of GPU cards) you need/can afford, add one, a couple, or three used or refurbished GTX 780 6G or the original reference design Titans (also 6G). They're cheaper than building your own system and a lot cheaper than building a 3d animation rendering system based on the 2013 MacPro. Instead, if you want a MacPro, get yourself a used MacPro 2009 - 2012. You'll spend a lot more money in the end to get it currently capable of supporting a solid GPU animation renderer.

Anyone use a GPU render plug-in (like Octane or Furry Ball)? Also, from talking with Apple Store employees, I'm expecting an update to be quite soon (within the coming months).

So I guess I'm asking for y'all's experience with the Mac Pro and 3D. I'm fixed on the 6-core (possibly getting a storage upgrade). It's been a while since an update has occurred, and I don't want it to be updated right after I get one. From reading forum posts, I'm getting the Vibe that the Mac Pro isn't the best for 3D rendering (especially for C4D which is what I use). I've been interested in a Mac Pro for a while. I could bring it here, however my place is quite small and the Alien is quite big. I have an Alienware Aurora (2012) that I've built up over the years.but it's in Chicago while I'm in NY. Now, I also use my MBP for school, as well as my website. If I do a close up (say on the rims of the vehicles which are really detailed) I'm lucky if I get done with 15 frames in 12 hours. So far, it takes around 45min-1 hour to render stills 3000x3000), and around 12 hours to render a simple animation upto about 90 frames.
I have the midrange, so 2.6gHZ i7, 8gb Ram, gt650m (I think), and 512gb. So far, I've been doing all of this (modeling, rendering, and post production) on my Mid 2012 Retina MBP 15'. I initially began just rendering stills and posting them to my site, however I now create animations and "promo" videos.

In my free time, I design body kits and rims for cars. I'm a currently a mechanical engineering student.
