How the heck is that possible.

Well it is and the way I did it was so easy I highly recommend it. I found a couple of options. One was to send the tray with the processors and ram on them to a vender and they would perform the upgrade. OWC has a mail it in service. I want the BIG jump.

More on that later. I found you can buy the processors, but you have to do some extra stuff to make it fit.

The stock ones have a cover on them that makes them taller and that causes issues. If you over tighten you could damage the chip and the board basically destroying the computer and making it really expensive to fix. Here is what I did. DN Computers sells a kit for my MacPro 4,1. I went for the fastest processors I could get. The Core 3. If you have this model you are in luck too!

I asked them what other options are available. The 3. The only reason I might suggest the 3. I do continually restock, and would be glad to do other CPUs if requested. I only stock these two at this time: The other way is way more complicated. Google it and you will read the stories. If you ever built a computer before this way is super easy. New CPU under old ones. With the cap removed you can see an outline where it was.

Why buy the kit?

Removed Quadro and replaced with stock Mac video card. Not sure why. I believe any stock card that shipped with your Mac model would work. After the update is done the Quadro gets reinstalled. USB Drive with firmware. First step. Flashing the firmware to version MacPro 5,1. This is a must in order to get the Mac Pro to work with these new processors. The process is simple.

The kit includes a USB drive with the firmware on it. Just run it from the USB drive and follow the on screen instructions. Super easy to take out. Use the supplied hex driver to remove the heatsinks.

DO NOT try to install the new one that way. On the top of the CPU is a frame. This is a little riser I think. Put it aside and take note how it goes on. Then did the same to the second CPU. Repeat on the second CPU. The new CPU fits perfect. Just line up the notches and it plops right in. The only thing I have to worry about is lining up the plug on the heatsink. Tighten up the four hex screws on each and done. They are spring loaded so it takes a little wiggling to set them. With the tray ready to go I just put it back in and plugged the power cord in and powered up the Mac Pro. After running a few bench scores with Maxon Cinebench R15 I easily doubled the speed and added a few more frames per second too.

This was so simple and the results are well worth it. At least for now……. Thanks for coming by! Thanks again for coming by eriknaso.

Interested in buying a new camera? Well I have a course on Lynda. Filed in: I think that will be a Summer project for me.

How long did the whole procedure take? Thanks for the information. Thanks for the post! Very interesting. The DN computers website has loren ipsum fake text for their shipping and customer service page. It worries me about the legitimacy of the website. Thanks for posting this. I have the same Mac and have been thinking about this upgrade for a couple of years now. The processors were just too expensive.

The price now is just too good not to try it, so I am taking the leap. One question, does the machine run extra hot? Did you have to do anything to change your fan speed? Seems to run fine with no heat issues. Fans are really calm even when rendering. If you live in a hot environment it might be better to get the next model down.

It really made a big difference. I did the upgrade and all seemed to go as you described. However once I rebooted, some of my memory modules were not showing up. Just wondering if that would fix the problem or if something else strange happened in the process.

Updating my own post: Now it is working perfectly. I just ordered mine, Erik! Really looking forward to this upgrade. Cheers for such an awesome article!!! Because I was purchasing a machine specifically to be upgraded, I had the liberty of waiting for a model to show up at an acceptable price. This made the installation simpler and provided a bit more protection against incompatible OS changes. Have you tried adding USB 3. I got the Caldigit pro card with usb3 and esata. Sorry, wrong address.

Model Name: Mac Pro Model Identifier: MacPro2,1 Processor Name: B08 SMC Version system: MacPro3,1 Processor Name: B05 SMC Version system: Great article! Did you really get the 2 x 3. The upgrades got me through a very tough edit so no regrets. Would like Thunderbolt. Thanks, Eric. I think it comes down to money, the form factor, and the monitor.
