How come I have the same Mac Pro as Lasse, only with 12 instead of 16 GB Ram and I get a better result for the memory (and overall)
It can have a lot to do with the quality of the chips you put in there.

Early 2011 15" MBP, Core i7 2.2, 8gb @ 1600
Also just as an aside, a lot of people are unaware since Apple puts 1333mhz ram into everything that all the Sandy Bridge based Macs will take up to 1600mhz or 1866mhz DDR3. Good performance gains!

Didn't you have a 6-core ? Or did you just contemplate ipgrading to a 6 core at some point ?
Pretty decent for an old rig, I suppose.

So I can upgrade them to 1866 ? That's sweet.
Also, it's not officially supported, but you can upgrade to 2x8 Go of ram with no problem. Those are still a little expensive though.

No hexacores here. Mostly waiting on decent mainstream octo core options to become available. I don't want a server processor because I do a bit of gaming too - and I need my machine to crunch Diablo 3 as hard as it crunches 100+ track sessions.

Never felt the need to, that's how. I've worked out of plenty of studios running old hardware, some as old as G4 macs and the only time I've felt like stabbing myself in the face was with a PC/Nuendo setup
Edit: Now that I check, there are lots of people going with 4GB in this thread.
