Here\'s the story - I bought this at a local sale under the assumption (stated by seller) that this was working but was wiped by the seller ( No OS). So, when I get home and plug this thing in, it seems to try to boot, makes a startup sound, but no image on the monitor. My son takes a closer look and notices that there is no hard drive (SSD), So, I buy a 256GB SSD on (OEM apple SSD), install it and still the same results. After googling this thing I see that they have video issues. I refuse to spend anymore money, if you think you can fix it, god bless you. Not sure what is exactly installed as I can\'t get any info out of it, there seems to be 12gb memory (3 - 4GB sticks) I have to assume that this is a base model. The back Panel Lights Up when Powered on and also when I move it, It lights up also. The USB keyboard that I plugged it into responds also as I hear beeps when pressing certain keys like (ESC), the fan comes on and is extremely quiet. When I bought the SSD, it did not come with a mounting screw, so it\'s just plugged in without the screw holding it, so it needs this small screw also, I have to assume that there is nothing on the SSD as I could not access it either.Im not sure what video cards are installed, but if I go by the model number (A1481) the spec sheets says D700, this can be a mistake also, I\'m not sure and I don\'t want to make any false comments, my son believes it a 2015/16 build date, but again, not 100% sure.
The case has a minor scratch or two, nothing too serious. Overall it looks extremely clean inside. This item comes as shown, No Keyboard, No Power Cord, No Mouse.
Any Questions Please ask, I don\'t know too much about this or it\'s operation and I will try my best.
I am Selling it as Broken - AS IS - For Parts or Repair.

Update Nov. 15th : I have been asked by some interested parties to remove the \"D700\" video comment if I am not sure which video card is installed, as of Now I can not remove or edit the original listing. So to avoid any disappointments, disregard any video card comments, I did state that i was not 100% sure and I was only going by the Apple Spec Sheet A1481. If anyone knows a way to determine which graphic cards are installed, please let me know and I will try my best to find out and post the info. on another update.
Also: This Item will ship with delivery confirmation, so please, if you can\'t sign for it, please don\'t offer. I will only ship to confirmed addresses, I can\'t afford to lose any more.Other questions were \"How did I test the Video\". I have not tested the video, I hooked up a HDMI cable to my monitor and I did not get any signal, to double check, I used a different HDMI cable with the same results, no video. It is only my opinion that there is most likely defective video cards from all my google research. Could it be a different issue? I can\'t answer that as I am not that knowledgeable with these MacPro\'s.

Update 11/19: The Serial number is F6CPL015FY40 - Entering this info, this is what I came up with, Please do your own research as there will be no returns or refunds. The only discrepancyI see so far is that the has 12GB I assume as I only see 3 sticks of 4GB. This is why I say do your own research with the serial number. If you need anymore pictures, I will be happy to send them.

offer on this assuming that it\'s just a base model and nothing more, this way there will be no disappointments. I\'m sure most of the buyers know this item inside out better than me.
