Thought this might be fun. Who can put together the highest CPU PassMark per dollar system?

Has to be parts that are available, say at least 10+ available on eBay. We could include entire systems but for now, I’ll just start out with a CPU/motherboard combo copied from a recent LTT video.

Generic X99 Motherboard $106
https://www.ebay.com/itm/LGA-2011-3...-/154270379450?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292


Intel 2667v2 $100

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Xeon...-/353369545191?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292


PassMark 12277
59.6.1/$

Just for fun (because while these parts are available, they'd be nowhere near their MSRP if purchased from scalper land):

ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero X570 ($420)
AMD 5900X ($549)

CPU Passmark 38778 (Was also installing MS Flight Simulator 2020 in the background at the time)
40.02/$
