I am building a workstation used for programming..
I will not be playing any games, perhaps I'll do some XNA but I don't care about game performance.
I'm trying to decide over i7-2700k and Intel Xeon E3-1275
I'd read the Xeon would give great performance in Visual Studio but not sure how it would compare against the i7 2700k
Since according to cpubenchmarks.net, i7-2700k gets a higher rank
As this would be a machine I don't want to upgrade for another 3-4 years, I want to get the most out of it.
