[QUOTE="SuBDivisions, post: 1618573, member: 337239"] So i have an iMac 24", a core 2. 2.8 (7,1), 4GB, with a Velociraptor.. I wanted something faster and stronger so i went and off eBay bought a Mac Pro 5.1, Westmere, dual Hexacore CPU (12 Core/ 24 VC) with 16GB, and a Radeon 5770. Both are running Yosemite now (they were Mavericks).. I have to say i think i may have been expecting too much.. The Mac Pro is not as "snappy" as i thought it would be.. Now i will probably put an SSD in it (it has a 1TB 7200 Sata) which will be a big boost, but i dunno, it seems kinda laggy.. Im also running at 2560x1440, i dunno if that has anything to do with it (it shouldn't).. Its not like Dog crap slow.. i think i was expecting too much. Thoughts? (Putt this way, it feels no faster then the iMac). [/QUOTE]
