Here's a conundrum for you all…

I have a 2008 Mac Pro 3,1 2 x 2.8 GHz running El Capitan 10.11.5.

I had 16GB of RAM made up of a mixture of 800mhz and 667mhz modules.The presence of the 667mhz causes even the 800mhz modules to run at 667mhz so I decided to purchase 4 x 4GB modules so that I could do away with the 667mhz modules and increase my total memory at the same time.

I ran Geekbench tests along the way and I had surprising results…

First up is the pre-upgrade test. So 16GB total...
