I recently acquired, for free, a 2009 Mac Pro - dual, 4 core 2.26ghz Xeons, 12 GB RAM, 2 640 GB hard drives, and an NVIDIA T120 with 512MB.
I am thinking of turning this into an every day machine for work and gaming. I can pick up one of the old aluminum Apple LCDs for $130 and I was thinking of getting a better graphics card (like a Radeon 7950).
Obviously the machine is 6 years old. Does anyone have experience using this computer as an every day machine? Is it still passable on processor intensive tasks? Finally, does anyone have any Recs for graphics card upgrades?
