Product Description

Enter the Quad-Core Intel Xeon Nehalem" processor. Its single-die, 64-bit architecture makes 8MB of fully shared L3 cache readily available to each of the four processor cores. The result is fast access to cache data and greater application performance. Combine that with the other technological advances and you get a Mac Pro that's up to 1.9x faster than the previous generation. All-new high-performance graphics cards from NVIDIA make Mac Pro graphics technology faster than before. More Details >>

Is this the 2nd generation or the 3rd generation Mac Pro
I placed an order for this particular Mac Pro and then quickly canceled it when I read that it comes with DDR2 memory. According to Apple's website, the Mac Pro now comes with DDR3 memory. More >>

Exceeded All Expectations
I bought this to replace a 4-year-old G5 (dual 2.7 Ghz).I push my Macs to the limit - the new one now has three video cards to support 5 monitors (way cheaper than even just 1 30 inch monitor), 16 Gb of memory, and 3 hard drives for a total of 2+ TB of space. More >>

Super Fast and Very Quiet
I owned a PowerMac G5 Dual 2.0 Ghz before the video card died. I use two cinema HD monitors and the AGP cards are hard to find for that older model. More >>
