[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1886082, member: 56379"] When I said "dedicated gaming machine"...I was mostly thinking of JUST the games you've been running on it up to this time (which you said were running "with ease"). If you were thinking newer games...yes I agree...your 2009 Mac Pro's CPU & GPU (as is) probably aren't up to the task of running newer games at higher resolutions (don't know if your 2009 Mac Pro is a 4-core or 8-core unit). As you probably know...2009 (4,1) Mac Pro's can be upgraded to 5,1 Mac Pro's (similar performance to 2010-2012 Mac Pro's)...but it can be pretty expensive. You probably can also use various Windows video cards in your 2009 Mac Pro...that have more than 2GB RAM. But all of this can get expensive. Nick [/QUOTE]
