Well, i know ive said before that i dont wanna upgrade my CPU and neither GPU but!
I'm gonna make a PC thats gonna be in the other room and only render C4D, ae n such.

So! i had the idea to go with an old i7 2011 typed CPU.
Any good out there with that type of socket and could i use 2011-V3 with DDR4 for it?

I dont wanna pay more then max 300USD for it :-)

And for the mobo i have an idea of a fine mobo for almost no money and im gonna slap in a SLI 670 setup or another "good" SLI setup that i can get for under 200.

There are no LGA-2011v3 CPUs older than the socket. Old ones are incompatible and new ones are all very expensive. X79 and 2011 or X58 and 1366 are more realistic with an $300 USD limit.
