Supports single M.2 drive and PCIE 3.0 x16 but only half-length (according to specs), so may be not be good for high-end gaming?

    Honestly this isn't something you'd want to use as a gaming rig. Better off going for: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/602202

  • Don't use these as gaming rigs as they are far nosier than a normal system. Their BIOS's also generally aren't built for having a GPU etc. Do your research on each specific motherboard to ensure it supports the parts you want to put in it.

    • Agree with the first bit; not with the second.

      Quite the opposite; I agree, not for gaming, but if you do a lot of encoding, the pcie lanes on the xeons make for a great box to drop 4 GPU's in, for hardware accelerated grunt.

      • Or 16x bifurcated storage cards for a lightning fast storage server!

    Good price but not for gaming.

    It has four hard drive bays, so given the processor, could be more useful as a beefy NAS if you can live with the increased noise and power consumption.

    But not really suited as a general desktop PC.

  • Thank you, It's about time I upgrade the home-servers.

    • You can get better deal if you look at second hand rack servers but does require wife approval as those are loud.

    pointless rig……6 core Xeon is literally rubbish now.

    • I agree, 6 cores and single channel ddr4 for this price? Techfast sells some 8 core dual channel ram for $1600!
