At first, I was skeptical when I bought this product; I wanted an i7, but after talking to a friend, he told me the Xeons and I series are made on the same dye; They perform better, smoother, and have higher base frequencies; I honestly love this processor.
Not a lot of Motherboard support; I tried looking for one, and it took awhile before I ended up just going with the combo deals; Even then, only 2 mother boards were available, but it has 4 different combos with them
