The "cheesegrater" 5,1 Mac Pro are still value for money even the single core models,but change cpu to 6 core @3Gig and I run 32 Gig ram in single core and 64Gig in twin cpu model single core WILL not be happy on monterey but twin will. my single core now runs Linux Mint21 mate. very fast,and has even run AppleTV,just to see if both versions of'Nix would talk to each other,they did. But AppleTV on my "new Mac" works perfect. And they look drop-dead gorgeous .In my frontroom/lounge of whatever I have a 3,1 PowerMac, thats seriously updated to a Ryzen 9 cpu Blu-ray 2Tb ssd 4Tb HHD ,2Tb HHD,and a 120Gig ssd for Timeshift and runs Ubuntu 22.04.So yes save your money get an old mac or mac laptop run Opencore Legacy Patcher and follow Mr Machintosh on youtube.

Casing was in great shape, had Yosemite pre-installed on the 2TB hdd. Quick responses to my queries & I was able to pick it up hassle free! One of the HDD sleds was missing & one of the RAM modules was mismatched, but for the price who cares! Brilliant piece of kit, have upgraded a few internals & it’s running like a dream 👌

Given the choice of spending unaffordable megabucks on New Apple computers or choosing this route of maxing out a 2010 G5 model I chose the latter route. I was able to expand my Music Production system at 25% of new prices.
