The GeForce 8600 GT is largely under Radeon 4670HD of today, 3X slower than Radeon 4850HD that juice the quad-core iMac. In fact it’s marginally faster than GeForce 9400M of Mac Mini and white MacBook, more processing power, but same memory bandwidth!

So why Apple is selling this old videocard dubbed as GT120 on MacPro? It has no sense!
