I just souped up my Mac Pro 2008 for video work.
After doing days of reading here, I decided to keep my 2008 mac pro and add additional features, let me know if there is anything else that I need to do.
Installed a apricorn pcie dual card with 2 matching Samsung 250 GD ssd's 9
Installed a Radeon 5770 graphics card
Installed 32 GB of 666 RAM
Installed a 3.0 pcie card in the top slot
installed an additional 125 GB ssd in the first startup bay with fresh El Capitan.
My Mac Pro is a 8 core / 3.0 dual chip model.
I know I can add 800 speed ram but I got a great deal on the 32 GB 666 ram.
I really don't know what else to do to help me work on my videos.
Thanks ...
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.0.x)
