I'm looking for the following parts for a lightweight pc to carry back and forth to my friends and various places. I already have an i5 6600k GTX 1070 build I wouldn't mind transferring over to mini ITX. Then I would just need a new motherboard. That option seems more reasonable, as I only have...

But seriously, i feel like 4c/8t is not going to suffice for my needs, and ddr4 is too expensive for me

Shhhh, i dont have a dual socket fetish

Also used is fine

I have an i5 6600k with a motherboard i think is going out, and 8gb of ddr4 which isn't enough and it sometimes throws errors. I want to replace it all. And the i5 stutters when multitasking.

Would a dual socket work better for VM's with some cheap ECC?

Yeah, I have a gtx 960, an ssd and hdd, a 750 watt corsair 80+ gold psu, and was thinking about making a custom case to replace my h440 and give my h440 to a family member

I need a motherboard, CPU, RAM, and Cooler for some hardcore multitasking, like even an occasional VM, Editing and rendering, and gaming while doing that for $300. List me some suggestions.

And i have Win10 Pro

I do, but my motherboard is shaky, and RAM slots are shaky. I also want to be able to play a game while rendering, my i5 is miles away from being able to do that. I know it won't outperform it, but it's not going to be miles behind it, right? I also only have a gtx 960 sooo.

It is about $250 just to get hyperthreading. Here I get triple the cores, and sixtuple the threads, or however many x6 is. And 32 gb of RAM is included in that $300. I only have 8 gb rn. But, I have proved the RAM is not the issue, as I have seen my system when I'm doing some lighter...

My issue is is, DDR4 is crazy expensive. Also I only have about $300 for Motherboard, CPU, RAM, and Case. I cannot beat the price of these chips.

Don't roast me, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to go for dual Xeon X5675's for gaming, unless someone could convince me otherwise. It also has to be able to multitask exceptionally well, because my i5 is not getting it done for me. So my question is, what would be wrong with using a motherboard...

It is with dual socket x5650's and hyper 212's. I can share my Pcpartpicker list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/YWM86X
