Hello!

So I currently have an unRaid server built but I would like to upgrade a little bit. Its kinda an all for one build for me. I would like it to be able to be able to do the following:

-Plex, one user
-Occasional small game server
-NAS
-Back up for a few home PCs

Current Build:
i7 950
32GB RAM non ECC memory
20TB

My current CPUs I have laying around
2x E5620
2x X5550
2x X5667
FX 8320
FX 9370

I would like to use a pair of the xeons I have laying around since I have 64gb of DDR3 ECC RAM I could pair it with.

Another option would be to sell all of the above and buy CPU/Mobo/Ram that would suit me better.

What do you guys think? I would like to stay in the ATX form factor since that fits my current case.

You should go for first option. I think it will work as you nice RAM and other configurations.

wow, these are real old stuffs..lol.. i actually also have a pair of x5550 in a dell t5500 also..... but it's too bad that windows 10 is not supporting 1366 fully anymore... the thing won't do proper s3 sleep anymore on win10.
