This purchase was part of an incremental upgrade plan, as I wanted to extend the life of my X58 based system which I built in 2009. The performance gain as a result of the upgrade from my mildly overclocked 3.1GHz Core i7 920 to this Xeon X5690 was outrageous. Although there are gurus out there who would - citing better overclock potential and value for money - suggest using a lower clocked CPU in this Xeon family, this second hand CPU was a good buy in terms of performing well at stock specs without the need of expending precious time overclocking it. Hopefully this will see my system reach the 10 year mark at least.

Massive upgrade to the 4,1 and 5,1 mac pro. I use the cMP for product rendering and also general design and it runs circles around my 2018 Macbook Pro 2.9 i7.

This Xeon continues to keep my x58 mobo competing with the latest mobo cpu combos. Great units good price!
