Mac Pro 2009 Nehalem: Single 2.93 or Dual 2.26

Thanks for the response and information. I think I'll go with the 2.93 GHz Quad, as Gaming is definitely something I'll be doing everyday.


Hopefully this thread can help out others in my situation! 🙂

Abidubi is right. The 3.33GHz CPU, being almost 1 GHz faster, would make a tangible improvement. In every app. At $1000, it's too pricey... But for $450 difference, you really are wasting a lot of money for a very small gain. Then again, $1000 is closer to a bargain compared to $450 given the CPU speeds.

The integrated GT120s are really unsuitable.

The GT 120s aren't integrated, just standard equipment.
