    Re: mac pro processor upgrade

    i think if you googled it you would find that there are other possibilities although it might be harder to source the chip you want. i remember checking this out when i was thinking of purchasing a mac pro

    but you should read the instructions a couple of time cuz I remember reading someone messed it up real good cuz the cpu or the cooler wasnt seated properly. its quite delicate
