I tried them, and for some reason they didn’t work for me. There are applications that can make this easier for you. I don’t need anything more than this 1,1. But I knew the Mac Pro 1,1 was capable of running El Capitan, and because of the security updates, I felt it was time to make this upgrade. It hasn’t suddenly stopped working, and everything it used to do, it can still do. Quite a leap! I use this machine for BBC Iplayer Downloading and encoding DVD rips for my Plex library, so the CPU will really help.īy early 2018, Yosemite is coming up to 4 years old.
EL CAPITAN FOR MAC PRO 1.1 32 BIT
In October I upgraded the two dual core 2.66 GHz processors with two quad core 2.66 GHz processors, giving me an 8 Core, for £5 + an hour of my time! My 32 bit Geekbench went from 5601 to 8945. By this point, I was happily chugging along with Yosemite. I put Snow Leopard on it, upgraded Lion to Mavericks, upgraded the paltry Nvidia 7300 with the Apple ATI 5770 and installed an SSD. Over the first year, I had a lot of fun upgrading and playing with it. It actually ended up with 2 hard drives – my machine was damaged in shipping and they told me to keep the drive from it and put it in the replacement machine overnighted to me! At the time, I paid ~£150 for a Mid Range 4 Core (2x2cores) 2.66GHz Mac Pro with 8GB of Apple Certified Memory and a 250GB Hard Drive. These shortcomings meant that the machine was cheap.
5 years after it’s last Operating System upgrade – 10.7 Lion.
