Updated my mid-2010 MacBook Pro to 10.11.1 El Capitan directly from 10.6.8 Snow Leopard - the only OS it has ever known until now.
I never wanted to move from Snow Leopard but the last supported version of iTunes was not compatible with iOS 9 devices. In any event, El Capitan has been excellent so far and I have been impressed with how well it runs on a machine of this vintage. Time will tell if it is as stable as the legendary Snow Leopard.

2006 Mac Pro 1,1. Officially stuck at Mac OS X Lion, but this one happens to have Mavericks installed. A 500 GB SSD, in addition to 4x HDDs and 2x ODDs are installed inside. I would dread all that external clutter with a nMP
This is my New Main machine I got the Mac pro for Christmas along with 32GB of ram for it (the ram for these macs are stupid cheap it was like £40 for 32GB of ram) and I fitted a Geforce GT 740 I had lying around loaded it up with el cap onto my 64GB SSD and moved all the stuff from my temp hackintosh to it and it runs like a champ very pleased with it runs better then i was expecting can not believe its an almost 10 year old computer (it has let me use my 2TB green drive as a storage drive too) I have also fitted a second ODD and have loaded windows 10 x64 on the factory 250GB drive for some light gaming. in the future I plan to get a better GPU something like a 7870 or 7950 for good power with boot screens and I also plan to get a pair of X5365s for it since it slightly struggles with VMs but apart from that I am very pleased and happy with this almost 10 year old mac
Pretty good computer for your first Mac.
Here's my two main machines.

Hey, do you know the model of that nVIDIA case? I built a PC years ago using that same one, and would love to find it again.

Looks like you Have inject nvidia turned on in Clover I recommend you turn it off (Its not needed on Kepler and up cards and can cripple the card some)
