    It is a rare machine that allows mixing.

    You must get the proper specs for Your machine.

    Replacing (upgrading) usually does not work because the Mfg tend to use Matched motherboards with the chips.

    If you use a CPU that is not matched to the mb you will be bottlenecked, and any extra power will be lost.

    It's better to get two different chips for it. Now for mixing jus add sum extra hotsauce and there you go. Enjoy ya mac pro salsa 🤗
