Mac Pro 1,1 x5160 -> x5355 for gaming? X5365?

i have spare stock mac pro 1,1 have sitting around gaming on occasion.

x5355 ( 4 core 2.66 ) have gone down in price, can 2 less $350 now.

question is: gaming, going see performance increase @ all?

i've read, answer no, wanted check.

meanwhile x5365 (4 core 3.0) still expensive ( $650 - 700 2 ). expect performance better 1 maybe not worth money.

have benchmarks or experience gaming these processors?

 

i interested in knowing since thinking making 5150 5355 swap might not worth gaming, video.

alternatively, 5150 -> 5160 might more interesting since procs quite cheap now.
