I spotted quite a few of these CPUs on EBay, some as low as $25.
I don't know if there is a major decommission or how hard it is to find motherboards or how expensive MBs are?
A bit older than E5-2670, maybe not as fast (but half the price), more level 2 & level 3 cache; but can be used in 2x CPU configuration and support up to 1TB ram.
(EDIT: Only 2 CPU configuration and 1TB ram!)
This seller has them for $30
Intel Xeon E7-2870 SLC3U 2.4GHz 30MB 10-Core LGA1567 CPU Processor
