would this be a good deal IF i can flip the i7 3820

local morning yall. im browsing ebay for parts for a server build. i came across this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/ASUS-P9X79-Motherboard-X79-LGA2011-Intel-Quad-Core-i7-3820-3-6Ghz-processor/332558527793?hash=item4d6e086d31:g:su8AAOSwNmNaiGE9

i plan to us a Intel Xeon E5-2640 V2, for this project, so the CPU included with this listing means nothing to me, that said, is there a potential profit to be had from flipping the i7 3820?

 

ive been having a hell of a time finding mobo that are x79 with an LGA 2011 on them anywhere near me, so this is one of the better bets ive found so far.

Maybe. The motherboard is what's really worth a good chunk of cash.

The i7 3820 doesn't hold much value by itself. Somewhere between a 2600k and 3770 I'd say, which is also where its performance lies, so about $100 ish.

i see. im only asking because sadly this of one of the better deals im left with at the moment. as i said up top, i just need the board so i can stick an E5-2640 V2, so the included CPU is of no real use to me, at least that i can see currently.
