Great machine. I still have a 2006 Mac Pro 1,1, just for the sake of upgrading it. It's not my main machine, but I've upgraded the GPU, put in dual 3.00 GHz Quad Xeons, 32 GB RAM (it can handle 64!) and an SSD with 3 TB hard drives for backups and RAID. Of course, it's limited to El Capitan, but it has plenty of power to spare.

I plan on using my 5.1 Mac Pro for another 3 years until I can get the newer one used. I have Nvme drives and a Metal compliant 8gb graphics card and its blazing fast - nowhere near obsolete (way faster than my 2018 Macbook Pro) and people have already found ways to install Catalina and I suspect that trend will continue for quite some time. Im now tempted to go from 8 core to 12 core as the 6 core xeons are now just £50 a pop which is bonkers. These machines are good for at least another 5 years.

Regardless of NvME or CPU, this MacPro has no problems, and the speed is still enough to perform Pro performance, but the only problem, sorry I was wrong, are two problems ... 1: nvidia CUDA driver, 2: Apple deliberately refused to let it Support for the new operating system, although its performance is still very fast.

I have a Radeon 5700 and before it I had an RX580 (MacPro 5,1 6-core 3.46Ghz). The Heaven benchmark plays at more than twice the fps, but in real world gaming (e.g. Fortnite) you barely notice the difference. You'll probably gain more by installing Windows on the MacPro to take advantage of faster drivers and hardware decoders (e.g. for recording gameplay with OBS) which are unavailable on MacOSX. If you do go for a 5700, pay attention to the card's height. The only one I could get my hands on that would allow me to continue using the Nvme RAID and USBc PCIe cards was the Asrock Challenger.

cool vid!, thought about a pci network card to a fast nas(prebuilt or one you made woth that cost)?

Hugh, you mentioned that the NVMe cards you bought were overkill. Do you have any advice for a slightly less expensive option that wouldn't result in wasted potential like this setup?
