So do compare your total spend cost to say a imac if you cant pick up a 4.1/5. I think i saw something like a 1/3 speedup depending on tasks also a big plus is the 4.1/5.1 have much cheaper used ram on ebay, i picked up 32GB for something like £50 2-3 years ago (yikes maybe more now)īut i do want to say is that if you care about speed do think twice and dont over spend as a macpro is slow by today's speeds Simply in single core speed something like a W3680 is noticeably faster than a E5462 and when using all cores (ie two 4c E5462 v one 6c W3680 the W3680 tends to win) The 2008 Mac Pro doesnt have SATA 3 and that could hurt the performance of your SSD. (cinbench is always a good cpu test both showing single core cpu speed and multi core cpu speed)ĭont look at old tests that look at GPU speed as thats an easy upgrade .also RAM for the 2008 Mac Pro is way more expensive than the iMac RAM. Or look at old barfeats posts like this one To see changes just google the cpu's there using, look at comparisons ie
