should work on many x79 board, but they really aren't that fast and a ryzen 3 will be faster in most desktop uses.

then just run windows 7 in a vm, otherwise a used lga 1150 is faster for most uses and cheaper.

Thats a no name board, your much better off getting an used name brand board from someone like asus, supermirco, gigabyte, or others.

 

What programs are you using? What are you doing?

 

Would this work?

The seller has a 25% positive review rating so you'll be lucky if you get anything close to what's pictured, or according to some people, anything at all.
