Hi, I have a decently stout Mac Pro 1.1 and I'm looking for a bit more power for some animations I've been working on.   So far, this is what I have:  

 

Dual Quad Xeon X5365s

32 gigs ram

SSD for OSX

SSD for Win7

Modded 7970, I'm pretty sure this is the fastest card available that still displays boot screens correctly.

 

I've done some reading about the BSEL mod, and the VID mod, but have not found anyone who has done this with my processors.  Does it work much the same?   What else can I do?

Ah, alright.  It's fine if this machine is fully maxxed out; it still does what I want and runs amazingly well.   In fact, it sort of blows my mind that this thing is a decade old but still runs modern OSs and modern programs as well as it does.
