This is not only a how to video for a processor upgrade on a PC, but it is also a bit of a showcase of my Frankenstein Media Server.

Parts:
OS - Windows 10 Pro
CPU - Xeon W3550 3.06ghz 4 Core TO Xeon X5690 3.46ghz 6 Core
Motherboard - IBM ThinkStation S20
Ram - G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 16GB DDR3 1600

PSU - Lenovo 625 W Bronze (From IBM ThinkStation S20)
GPU - PowerColor RX560 4 GB
Case - NZXT Phantom 410

This thing was built with a mix of new and old parts to provide a surprisingly current and fully capable Media Server / PC. It presented many unique challenges along the way, like how the motherboard had a very rare 10 pin power connector. Couldn't find an after market one that had that 10 pin. So I had to use the PSU from the ThinkStation S20 which normally sits in the top of server rather than the bottom. The CPU cable wasn't long enough for my NZXT case. I was extremly lucky to find one place online that sold a 10 inch extender which allowed me to anchor the PSU in the bottom of the case with 1 screw. After that smooth sailing.
