I'm new...This is my 2nd or 3rd post...so take it easy on me. I thought this was worth it due to the Nvidia Quadro P5000 (16 GB) just trying to post a good deal for someone out there.

I don't know if this has specific use as a workstation that would get particular benefit from teh Xeon and Quadro card, but I don't think this is good value for general use.
Based on the specs I think a typical ~$600 new level gaming pc would beat this. The Xeon is on par with todays i3's and the P5000 is about as powerful as a 1660 Ti.
This is for professional applications (drafting and sometimes rendering are two specifically). The graphics are okay but the processor is not great outside allowing access to ecc memory.

This is a workstation for engineering or CAD. Don't compare it with gaming computers. The purposes and target markets are different. It's like saying trucks are bad because they're slower than sedans. Admittedly this is an old computer, though.
