I just bought a 2013 Xeon Workstation, it had a key component that made buy it because was a great deal: nvdia quadro k6000
6 GB GPU. Also has 64 GB GDDR3 RAM.
Was thinking that I may have about 300 to 350 dollars budget for more pieces to a custom built machine. I have a i5 7500 Dell Optiplex with 32 GB DDR4 2400Mhz RAM also.
I saw that on MagicMicro that a barebones system with the i5 11400 cpu is about 320$.
Was considering placing the quadro 6 gb card, the 2400mhz DDR4 ram, my 512 GB M2 SSD, into the case with the i5 11400...Would this work OK? Would it be solid at running CopperCube???

BTW I forgot to mention, my optiplex is an SFF 7050. I won't take a nvdia GT 1050ti

Are you sure? Wouldn't a 11400 be bottlenecked by the old quadro and slow ram?

Coppercube 32 bits is 2 GB ram memory.

I have run it on a dual core with 2 gigs of ram and 128mb of video memory it worked pretty well.
There will be no issue running on a Xeon.

Not veer off of coppercube as a topic, but would 2400mhz ram seriously hold back an 11th gen i5?

Aw, fantastic!
You have Intel 486 to run Coppercube.

No not the cpu, the clockspeed of the ram. Ddr4 ram is 2133 mhz to 3200 mhz. I have a dell optiplex 4 core i5 7500 3.2 ghz with 32 gb ddr4 2400 mhz ram.but my optiplex is a sff so it can not take a 1050ti 4 gb. A 4 gb card will run gameguru max, which I want so I utilize the 3d models in coppercube projects by importing them into cc.

but my optiplex is a sff

sff is code for "small form factor"

those are extra low / narrow, need special graphics card and and IO shield or you use PCIe 16 bus extender.

better save the money, 11 gen I5 not that much 20% faster as 7 gen I5 also not much more energy efficient.
https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i5-11400F-vs-Intel-Core-i5-7500/4111vs3648

why not use integrated graphics intel4600 or so.

dell most corporate stuff is really well made but is also difficult because they mirror motherboard, so that graphics card is plugged in on the other side of motherboard.
