Posted February 19, 2016 Hello, My name is Blake. I've been kind of digging into making a gaming PC out of some old Xeon E5410 CPUs. CPU: Intel Xeon E5410 x2 Motherboard: Intel CPU-S5000SL Heat Sink: Intel Xeon Fan x2 RAM: Dataram 63356 DDR2 4GB PC2 5300 Registered ECC 667Mhz x4 I am still looking at finding a reasonable priced PSU and looking around to see if I can find a chassis I can fit the motherboard into, any tips on this I will be grateful for. Thank you. Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/550784-xeon-e5410-budget-build/ Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted February 19, 2016 Pretty sure getting 16 GB of ECC is still cheap. Also get a good PSU like SeaSonic.

Posted February 19, 2016 Author I was going to get four sticks of that ram I linked too get 16GB. I'll have to look at the PSU. If all else fails with this I can just turn it into s file server so I can make sure my web development files are backed up.
