Hi there,
I've been out of the fold for many years.
I'm currently out of work due to an MMA injury. So i don't have alot of money.
I was thinking of going down the Dual Xeon route, 2x Xeons in an LGA 1156.
Can any of you recommend a Xeon that's in high supply that is a better option for me than the Xeon E5650. That's the one i;m currently thinking of getting 2x of. I can get 2 for about 70 euro's. And i can pick up a lovely big a*s LGA 1156 mainboard for about 40 euro's.
Im wondering also, has anyone got any experience overclocking these older Xeons?
So basically, for 2x Xeons and the mainboard for them to go in, it's only costing me about 110 euro (about 125 dollars). I already have a Zotac Geforce 1080 my friend gave me, it's the tiny one with only 1 6 pin power plug on it.
I want to make this thing without a case, any suggestions on a VERY cheap breadboard i can put this thing on? Also, i'm gonna be needed some cheap DDR3 ram that will fit in it, and a PSU.
Thank you SO much.
Boom
