Old multi core server for Visual Studio

[Hobosapien]

That depends - in my case given that I have a slightly dodgy 3900X - the upgrade is worthwhile assuming my scan order actually gets despatched today.

Sell it to CEX for £211. Doubt they check them beyond visual inspection so as long as it isn't charred from over enthusiastic overclocking it should be accepted.

Though I presume their stores are now closed so may have to post it to them where they may have a proper testing set-up, whereas walking into the store relies on the staff there having much of a clue and kit to check it with.

It's not that bad - it just doesn't play as nicely with the ddr memory I have than the 3800x I was using before I installed this chip.

It may be a moot point though as it seems Scan have screwed up my order as what I'm seeing on their website doesn't match what the email lists...
