I've got a Mac Pro 1,1 which I've been debating about upgrading. Apparently you can new processors and hack around the 32bit EFI bootloader issues. It's a bit of a pain, but seems like a cheap way of getting a faster machine. The bus access is still going to be slow, but for most tasks, it seems pretty reasonable.

I've got one too. X5650s on ebay are about $20 for 2, 16gb of ram was $15, and you can flash it to a 2,1 easily and take it up to El Capitan.
