Fear not, if the hacker will get their hand on this, it should work. Some graphic card in the past also released for certain model only, but most has been modified to accept other Mac.

worth it or not.....? sweat.gif sweat.gif

if like mine, 0.34GHz difference, 4 cores to 8 cores, double the amount of L2 cache, justified lar....

but the current one is only a mere difference of 0.4GHz, same amount of cores from the standard specs... hmm.gif

btw, how much is your configuration costs, and mind listing down your configured specs...? brows.gif
