[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1541867, member: 56379"] At VAMountaineer and chas_m. 90+% of the time would agree with you guys:)...and I would be saying the same exact thing (look at what I mentioned earlier in this thread). But after looking into things...I think that spending $50 bucks to upgrade a 2006 Mac Pro from 4-cores to 8-cores is about as cheap as it gets when it comes to perfomance upgrades. $50 bucks is a drop in the bucket!;) - Nick p.s. I certainly agree with the limitations VAMountaineer listed. But $50 bucks to go from 4 to 8 cores is pretty cool!:) I wish I still had my 2006 Mac Pro 1,1...I would do this upgrade in a heartbeat (if for nothing else...just for fun)!:):) [/QUOTE]
