For instance the E3-1241 and E3-1271 are priced so that they slot between the lower end i5 and the slightly more powerful i7.
So I was looking at build options for the 2011v3 systems and noticed the Intel Xeon E5-1630 would make a good entry level entry into this otherwise very expensive platform.

Notice all 40 of the chips PCI-Express lanes are enabled. So I put together a potential parts list for a build.
My question to you all is what is your opinion on potentially using the E5-1630 in this manner?
