If you have the appropriate motherboard and are comfortable setting up an overclock this is potentially a very good upgrade. I had an i7 3820, I am able to run this Xeon at 4.4Ghz, it does get very hot under full load however so you will need a beefy cooler. The 2 extra cores and increased cache size is worth it though.

I know this thing is rated at 130W, but it actually uses very little power, rarely more than 50W. Core voltage is 1.1V. So even when I have all the cores maxed out for hours, I can't get this thing to go above 62C with a basic Dell heatsink. Fans generally stay around 1000 rpm even at full load, and I can't hear them. I just know that if I could overclock this thing, it could reach some sick speeds. The fact that I can't is a shame.

Installed the cup in a new board and it booted up just fine. Stress tested the cup for over 48 hours and it performed perfectly. Amazingly it ran quite cool

A very very fast CPU when tuned right, especially for the $25-$45 price range.
