You could pick up a Xeon E5-1650 for fairly cheap and clock it to the moon. A Xeon E5-1660 is also an option and clocks well (especially the IMC), but is a much more expensive part for only marginal gains. With both Xeon options you have official PCI-E 3.0 support as well, something the i7-3970X lacks.;)
the 3970x is an 8 core xeon with 2 cores cut off, the 3930k is a 6 core with nothing disabled. the 3930k also tends to clock higher as they are the higher leakage xeons, but the 3970x is just random broken ones.Quote:
