Loose Xeons and EPYCs — tray or boxed, by the handful or the pallet. Demand is barbelled: current-generation silicon and cheap ex-hyperscaler workhorses both sell well; it's the forgettable middle that sits. Send the exact SKUs and we'll price them against what they're actually trading at.
| Family | Typical |
|---|---|
| Current Xeon Scalable | Platinum 8592+ (Emerald Rapids), Gold 6558Q / 6538N / 6348 / 6330N, Silver 4516Y+ / 4510 / 4410Y |
| Earlier Xeon Scalable | Gold 6330 / 5317, Silver 4-series, Cascade / Ice Lake generations |
| Ex-hyperscaler Xeon | E5-2673 v3, E5-2696 v4, E5-2666 v3, E5-2676 v3 — Haswell / Broadwell, cheap core count |
| AMD EPYC | 7xxx (7763 is the top request), 9xxx Genoa |
Not listed? Send it anyway — this is what turns up most, not the whole book.
The market is split. At the top, current-generation Scalable parts hold real value as people build and repair recent servers. At the bottom, ex-hyperscaler E5 v3/v4 chips are wanted precisely because they're cheap cores by the tray — Azure and other operators retired them in enormous numbers. The mid-life, mid-spec parts between those two are where prices are thinnest, so a precise SKU list is what lets us pay properly for the ends.
The exact SKU, quantity, whether they're tray or boxed, and a note if you know they're OEM-locked or ex-cloud. A pasted list straight from a spreadsheet is perfect. That's enough for a real number inside a working day.
