Posted June 28, 2022 (edited) Budget (including currency): trying to minimize but upto ~1000USD Country: ISRAEL (shipping and taxes usually add around 33% ontop of US prices) Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: upto AAA games, light editing and rendering, some basic programing and compilation. This pc will be the main machine in the home it will also serve as as a mediacenter, media server (storage runs on a qnap jbod), some VMs for minecraft(and other games) servers and any other application a hhome might need Other details existing parts lists: Xeon scalable qmq6 (I have 2 of them) 8*16gb ecc reg ddr4 (actually have 16 of those dimms to use) 2*256gb nvme m.2 2*1.6 tb sata ssd 2*6tb sata hdd 1660 super Some 120mm case fans parts needed: Mobo (see my question below regarding this) Case PSU No peripherals are needed, upgrading from: hp z600 w/ 2*x5675 with 48 gb ddr3 ecc reg, when you're going to buy- as soon as i find the correct parts... what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 1440p, 144-165 hz The most pressing issue is if there are any lga3647 boards that will support this cpu as it is marked as "intel confidential" and i am not sure if it is even ES or QS? Thought about getting a barebone workstation like hp Z6 g4, but not sure it will take such a cpu I have found: an Asus Sage board (not sure if it supports this cpu model) Phantechs case, Nuctua lga3647 140mm cooler And a proper 1000w 80+ gold For around the price limit i set And a z6 g4 baarebones with mobo, case, psu and cpu cooler would cost arond half that price...

I think your choice of CPU is not good for your goals. It's a super high core count configuration with low clock speed, which is generally not great for gaming. Instead, a 6 or 8 core CPU with a good clock speed that's much newer will provide a well improved experience. As recommended, an i5-12600K is great for gaming right now. Paired with some non-ecc memory and a decent Z690 motherboard you're set.

It wS my bad to press the wrong button on page and post without details which i edited already.... Now for the other question regarding the 12600k I was doing a comparison to the 12700k (not the 12600k) and it was rougly 650usd more to get that system as it would require to add cpu and ddr5 mem (no i will not settel for ddr4 if im buying 12th gen) The whole idea was to use what i have Knowing that im giving up performance HTH to explain my strange decisions...

Posted June 28, 2022 You might be better off selling what you have now and getting a higher end system that what you could make now. As @Fasauceome said, you would be better off getting a 6 core like the 12400f, rather then a 16 or 32 core extremely slow cpu. I see 2 options here imo. Either sell everything you have now and buy a higher end system with the new capital. Or keeping the 1660 super, case fans, sell everything else, and just buy cpu, mobo, case ect.

The cpus, and mem i already have I really dont like the idea of buying new stuff (that is why i try to minimize and use what i have) Also the cpus and ram will already be an upgrade to what i currently have Going from dual 6 core 3.06ghz to 18core 3.7ghz And going from 3-channel ddr3 to 4-channel ddr4 The main issue is will i have any support for such a cpu on a productiom mainstream mobo? or will i have to go through hoops trying to get said support?

It's a good thing to want to reuse hardware, but you're looking at server-grade equipment. The cost of the motherboard alone is a lot, and you won't have a variety of mainstream options.

I am well aware of that, and maybe i posted in the wrong forum As i mostly wanted the answer regarding the mobo compatibility But gus for refferance sake Here is the comparison i have made of the relevant prices of parts i would need to buy Prices are in NIS which is around 3.4NIS=1USD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 7, 2023 Author So, it has been a bit of time since i asked this question Wanted to update here, so that if there's any weirdos like me in the crowd, they will have closure and some answeres... First of all the cpu is a QS for the xeon gold 6150, and it is recognized by cpuz and by the bios and os as a 6150. I finally setteled on th asus pro ws-c621-64l sage. It cost me about 625$ with shipping And had no issues with cpu compatibility. The cpu cooler i got from aliexpress, and my only gripe with it is that the fan orientation forced me to not put the gpu in the top pcie slot. The case was a cooler-master throwaway i found and had to chop and mod a bit. PSU i got for free from a friend. Since this is a 6 channel memory board i used 6*16gb 2400mhz ddr4 reg ECC. Boot drive is a micron 512gb i stripped from a dead dell laptop. Bulk storage is 2tb pcie nvme +2*1.6tb sata ssds + 6tb hdd. The 1660 super remaind for now The mobo is great and packed with features that i will probably not use more than 80%of, but it is stable, working with no issues even with this QS CPU, and although it cost an arm and a leg, it still cost less than what i would have paid at the time for a 12th gen cpu+board+ddr5 mem kit. The upgrade is noticeble And my son is enjoying it very much This was also the second gami g pc he built for himself, and i am so proud of him for being able to do that (socketing a lga3647 cpu with a massive cooler ontop is no small feat!) Attaching some pictures for you to get some sense of how such a system performs (sorry i didnt record tems, but they were very manageable) Plz dont hesitate to ask anything regarding this build and my experiance I will be glad to help.
