I have 2 Mac Pros:
Mac Pro 1,1 - 2 x 2,66 GHz Dual core CPU - 32GB RAM - HD 5770 - Running modified El Capitan with Pike's boot loader
Mac Pro 3,1 - 2 x 2,8 GHz Quad core CPU - 16GB RAM - HD 2600 - Running standard Yosemite
My question is, could I switch the graphics cards and RAM and run BOTH with the following setup:
Mac Pro 1,1 - 2 x 2,66 GHz Dual core CPU - 16GB RAM - HD 2600 - Running modified El Capitan with Pike's boot loader
Mac Pro 3,1 - 2 x 2,8 GHz Quad core CPU - 32GB RAM - HD 5770 - Running standard El Capitan
To simplify, will the 3,1 run El Capitan with the 5770 card and the 1,1 run the modified El Capitan with the 2600 card?
