I might have the chance to pick up an LGA1155 motherboard so I can upgrade from the AMD 8350 I have and get some stronger single thread action going on in my rig. Not that it's a slouch, but I'm tired of having lower fps and benchmarks because of my AMD processor. So I was going for the standard look of a 3770 but I saw the E3-1230V2 for 200 bucks at microcenter! I did some digging and found out that minus the onboard graphics and lower power consumption, the xeon is pretty much the same thing.
My question is simple. I don't need to overclock, I've never had any luck with it so I don't even want to mess with it. Short of that, will the Xeon E3-1230V2 perform on par with the 3770?
