What is the best upgradable CPU for my 2006 Mac Pro 1.1 2.0 Dual Core?
Hey folks,
Just wondering if anyone could help me on deciding what CPU I could upgrade my older Mac Pro 1,1 2006 up-to. I have read some people are running 8 core processors on these units, I do not need that sort of power but something a little quicker would be great. Thank you for your help and opinions!
These CPU units are going for a decent price, but I am not sure if they would would be compatible or if there is a even faster CPU I could use:
My Mac Pro INFO:
