What would be the 2500k's Xeon counterpart?

Thanks.

I would say the W3520

EDIT: Why though? Bad mobos for overclocking and they run on a 1567 pin socket. They are ideal for server use.

There isn't a sandy bridge xeon with an unlocked multiplier, so I would say there really isn't an equivalent.

This here shows socket 1155 Xeon chips

?

Edit: Thanks hopper.

One question, would an extra $60 for a 2600k be worth it over a 2500k?

Only if you can put those threads to use. Gaming? No. Put the 60 toward your gpu.

Yeah, still debating that one.

Another quick question(I feel like a noob for making this thread), will my ram work with my sandy bridge setup?
