Motherboard Kit X79 LGA 2011 + Xeon E5-2650 V2 (8C/16T) + 16GB RAM DDR3 ECC | Gaming PC Budget

Build a powerful gaming or work PC on a super affordable budget. This combo kit provides the foundation for a capable system based on the Intel X79 platform, combining a new SY-X79 D3 motherboard , an 8-core, 16-thread Xeon E5-2650 V2 processor (used, tested) , and 16GB of DDR3 ECC memory (used) . It's the ideal solution for building a PC for 1080p gaming , light streaming , basic video editing , or heavy multitasking, taking advantage of the exceptional cost-effectiveness of repurposed server hardware.

The Core of the System: Multitasking and Cost-Effectiveness

• Xeon E5-2650 V2 Processor (Used, Tested): A server CPU with 8 physical cores and 16 threads , base frequency of 2.6GHz (Turbo up to 3.4GHz). It offers robust performance for games that use multiple threads and is great for multitasking (gaming + streaming + browsing).
• SY-X79 D3 Motherboard (New): Supports Intel Xeon E5 V1/V2 processors (LGA 2011) and DDR3 memory. Includes a crucial modern feature: an M.2 NVMe slot for a fast SSD, which will give a big boost to system speed.
• DDR3 ECC Memory (16GB - 2x8GB, Used): Sufficient quantity for most current games and tasks. ECC memory offers extra stability.

Technical Specifications and Focus on Games:

• Chipset: Intel X79
• Socket: LGA 2011
• RAM: 4 DDR3 slots, supports up to 128GB. Includes 2 x 8GB DDR3 ECC (used) .
• Storage: 2 SATA ports, 1 M.2 NVMe slot (PCIe 3.0 x4) - An important differentiating factor for a kit of this generation.
• Graphics Expansion: 1x PCIe 3.0 x16 (compatible with modern graphics cards such as GTX 1660, RTX 2060, RX 5600 XT, etc.).
• Network: Integrated Gigabit LAN port (1000Mbps).
• Rear Ports: USB 2.0, PS/2, LAN.

Who is this kit perfect for:

• Budget-Friendly Gaming PC Builder: To assemble a machine focused on 1080p gaming where the biggest investment will be in the graphics card. The processor delivers many threads for a very low price.
• Beginner Streamers: The 16 threads allow you to encode software streams (x264) with decent quality while you play, without costing a fortune.
• Users Who Need to Multitask: Ideal for those who keep many tabs open, work applications, and perhaps a light game at the same time.
• PC Builders for Office/Basic Workstations: For general tasks where 8 cores offer smooth performance.

Critical Notices and Transparency (Read Before Buying):

• Component Status: The motherboard is NEW . The processor (CPU) and memory (RAM) are USED , but tested. Do not purchase if used components are a problem.
• Video Card REQUIRED: Xeon processors do NOT have integrated video . You NEED to buy a dedicated video card separately.
• Single-Core Performance: For games heavily reliant on high single-core frequencies (above 4.5GHz), this is not the ideal kit. It shines in games that utilize multiple cores and in multitasking.
• Power Supply and Case: Requires a quality power supply (500W-650W recommended, depending on the GPU) and an ATX/Micro-ATX case.
• USB ports: Only USB 2.0 on the board. For USB 3.0 devices, a PCIe hub or expansion card will be required.

Kit Includes:

• 1x SY-X79 D3 Motherboard (New)
• 1x Intel Xeon E5-2650 V2 Processor (Used, Tested)
• 2 x 8GB DDR3 ECC Memory Modules (Total 16GB, Used)
