Intel® Core™ i5-2500 Processor (6M Cache, up to 3.70 GHz) - Product Specifications | Intel

So this mobo is kinda weird, and to be honest, I have no idea what's wrong with it. Sometimes it works 100% for weeks, and then it just doesn't. It gives out beeps that indicate there being an issue with the graphics card. And then sometimes it doesn't. Moving the card to the other GPU slot sometimes fixes the issue. And then the second slot gives the same error a few days later, swap it to the top, works, then it doesn't. This exact GPU works 100% on a different board.

I don't really have a bunch of different components to try to diagnose what the issue could be. If you are good at tinkering, maybe you can fix it. Worst case, you got a free CPU (Who knows, maybe THAT's the issue). I can't really give you a warranty/guarantee on these components. I figured that instead of just throwing them away, maybe someone out there can get it sorted.

This mobo doesn't have a display out, so it needs a GPU to work. It also has a weird CPU socket, only coolers that screw in will work it (I am including one). If you can fix it, you could use it as an office PC or a server or something.
