[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1643961, member: 56379"] Some of the stuff you mentioned wanting to do will use all the cores the computer has. For example Handbrake will use every core you throw at it. The difference between the CPU scores (15541 vs. 17658) isn't super-major…but still nice. With the eBay Mac Pro the 5870 video card is a nice plus…since it is worth almost twice as much $$$ as the 5770…and the 5870 is 2x the performance. And (at a maximum) the eBay computer would be $1299 (maybe less). The other Mac Pro sounds like it was around $1599. - Nick [/QUOTE]
