This poweredge server makes a great desktop box. Add 8GB of ECC memory and a copy of Windows 10 and you have a kick-butt desktop system that is built to last and will outperform most big-box super deal systems.
If you are looking for a system as a workhorse for many processor intensive tasks the Xenon is known for its abilities to do just that.
The motherboard and case offer plenty of room for expansion. It only comes with a 290W power supply so you will be limited if you want to add high end graphics cards. I was able to locate a replacement here on Amazon that was 500W and still fit in the space provided. As I recall it was a Rosewill non-modular 500W.. and I was able to run a OK gaming card. AS is, you can run 2 displayport monitors with no issue.
Its a heck of a deal on a great box with impressive spec's and its NEW and under warranty :-)
