Six Intel Q6600 kits, including motherboard and 4x1GB of DDR2. They're old render farm machines that I got for free from work since they sorta pale in comparison to E5-2670's. They're complete and they work. I have enough Kodi machines in my home already, but I'm sorta curious about setting up at least one with some additional components to see how cheaply I can build a Kodi machine that can also maybe do some gaming, while sticking entirely with old and/or used parts. I wonder how well these CPU's can do HEVC. 1080p HEVC might be okay, maybe?

One for a Storage Server (FreeNas or Nas4free)
Use the second one Kodi and then donate or sell the rest of them.

Well, for the majority, I was thinking 'Home renderfarm for personal VFX projects' but I since I enjoy my kodi setups and I've bemused what low end hardware can do, I thought it might be fun to project up at least one of them.

If you wanted a bit of a hobby you could build a Hackintosh.

There are 64bit Intel Kentsfield CPU's in these machines.

Hackintosh is always a fun project..
