I'm not really inclined to use Xeons as their motherboard options are quite restrictive

I think my idea is waaaaay better.

 

Spend $1100 on 3 pc's as mentioned in my previous post.

Then spend money on a few 1050's or ti's for them pc's since I see that he needs them.

Then spend money on a new decent Ryzen build, 2700 with say a 1060 if required, or just slap in a 1050 or ti.

 

Then buy a 6 pack for the co-workers.
