Korrupted Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 You mean the Mac Pro[intel] instead of the Power Mac G5[PowerPC], right? The G5 never had 8 cores.

drunknbass Posted April 19, 2007 Author Share Posted April 19, 2007 yea my bad.. the mac pro and i messed up when i wrote the subject too. im dumb.. i cant find the 3.0 clovertowns anywhere for sale. the 26 look like they are 1400$ a piece. i made a mac pro with 4 gig of ram and the price was @ 4600$ if the processors alone are 3000 its almost worth it to just buy a pre built apple.
