X99 Dual CPU LGA 2011-3 Motherboard Kit | 2x Xeon E5-2680 V4 (28C/56T) + 16GB DDR4 | for Rendering, VMs and Servers
Unlock the power of two CPUs in a single machine. This is the ultimate kit for workloads that demand maximum parallelization. Combining a new SOYO SY-X99 Dual D4 motherboard , two Intel Xeon E5-2680 V4 processors (used, tested) totaling 28 physical cores and 56 threads , and 16GB of DDR4 memory , this set offers exceptional processing density for 3D rendering, complex simulations, heavy virtualization servers, or professional editing workstations, at a fraction of the cost of a new dual-socket platform.
Double the Processing Power:
- Dual Xeon E5-2680 V4 (Used, Tested): Each CPU has 14 cores / 28 threads (2.4GHz base, Turbo 3.3GHz). Together, they offer 28 cores and 56 threads of simultaneous processing , transforming tasks that take hours into minutes.
- Dual-Socket Motherboard SY-X99 D4 (New): Based on the Intel C612 (X99) chipset, it supports two LGA 2011-3 processors and DDR4 ECC/Non-ECC memory in an eight-channel architecture (four per CPU). Includes two M.2 slots (NVMe + SATA) and robust expansion capabilities.
- DDR4 Memory (16GB - 2x8GB): Entry-level memory included. The board supports up to 256GB in 8 slots, essential for powering all threads.
Technical Specifications for Professionals:
- Architecture: Dual Socket LGA 2011-3 (Xeon E5 V3/V4).
- RAM: 8 DDR4 slots (4 per CPU), supports up to 256GB, optional ECC.
- Storage: 6x SATA 3, 1x M. 2 NVMe (PCIe 3.0 x4), 1x M. 2 (SATA/PCIe).
- Expansion: 2x PCIe 3.0 x16 (AMD CrossFire support for compute or rendering GPUs), 2x PCIe 2.0 x1.
- Network: 1x Gigabit LAN.
- Ports: 4x USB 3.0, 4x USB 2.0, 6-channel audio.
- Power supply: Requires 2 x 8-pin EPS connectors (in addition to the 24-pin ATX). A high-power (750W-1000W+) and high-quality power supply is absolutely necessary .
- Form Factor: ATX (290x280mm).
For Whom is This Kit a Revolution:
- 3D Artists and Render Farms: Extremely fast rendering in Blender, Cinema 4D, V-Ray, Keyshot .
- Engineers and Data Scientists: For CFD, FEA, machine learning simulations (as a training station), and massive code compilation.
- Virtualization Professionals (Homelab/Professional): Host dozens of simultaneous virtual machines on VMware ESXi, Proxmox VE , or Hyper-V .
- 8K/RAW Video Editing Workstations: The Legend of Color and Heavy Effects in DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere .
- High-Demand Game Servers: Hosting MMO servers or servers with many simultaneous players.
Critical Notices and Transparency (Read Carefully):
- Component Status: The motherboard is NEW . The two processors (CPUs) and the memory (RAM) are USED , but tested and functional . Do not purchase if used components are a problem.
- Video Card REQUIRED: Xeon processors do not have integrated graphics . You NEED a dedicated video card.
- High-Quality and Powerful Power Supply: This system consumes a lot of power (especially with two 120W CPUs each). A reliable brand 750W-850W 80+ Gold power supply with 2x 8-pin EPS cables is ESSENTIAL .
- Case Compatibility: Verify that your case supports ATX motherboards and has excellent airflow to cool two CPU heatsinks .
- Operating System: Ideally, use Windows 10/11 Pro, Windows Server, or Linux distributions to take full advantage of the hardware.
Choose Your Package Carefully (IMPORTANT):
- Motherboard only
- Motherboard + 2x CPUs (E5-2680 V4)
- Complete Kit: Motherboard + 2 CPUs + 16GB RAM (2x8GB DDR4)
This is no ordinary PC. It's an industrial productivity tool for those who think in parallel.
