You're spending a lot for it. That stuff isn't worth $500.
Stay away from old Xeon workstations unless you can get them dirt cheap. There's a reason people are dumping them right now. For that same $960 you can build a far more powerful system new.

Here is something to look at and I am sure the "uninformed" will be surprised... (but sill not care) lol

Intel wins in every matrix except "value and sentiment".
A whopping 73 points go to pure hype.
10 Intel cores versus 12 Ryzen cores.
I will say that "sentiment and value" will get you a bad cup of coffee. ROTFL :)
Which company can do more with less? That by definition is the true measure of "innovation".
Hype is worthless and should not even be considered.
Drooling fanboys do not a great product make.
AMD
Hugely higher market share.
Much more popular.
Cheaper.
Intel
Better value
(Do you know what better value means? It means that the extra you spend you make back over time.)
I agree with Richard to definitly go with an Nvidia card

This seems like a really good workstation and it is worth $960 used.
It seems it has 40 lanes per core a good buy.
You might have to upgrade the power supply for more than one graphics card.
Some motherboards have proprietary power supplies..

Comment: It seems AMD has built 64 tricycles versus Intel’s 18 supersonic jets... (But the price has been switched too)
Yea, AMD was the first to make a 64 core cpu. lol
And now AMD has stopped racing to make weak CPUs and they are copying Intel and trying to make better single core performance.
Now that is a novel idea, ...and how about better overclock speeds too? lol
Oh, and there is this:
