@ZLO ZLO•System on E8200 or E8*** or xeon E54** or anything on 775 socket is very old and yea probably can get it for very cheap or even for free, and it will run FA... but probably worse than this xeon .
What????? What are you talking about?
Link to e8200 intel:https://tinyurl.com/y5ounpys

Both have large cpu cache. The e8200 has 6 mb of cache for 2 cores and no hyper threading. The 2420 V2 has 15 mb for 6 cores and 6 threads with hyper threading. So with some simple math 15 divided by 6 = 2.5 mb cache per core ? But that's a guess.
6 divided by 2 = 3 mb of cache per core for the e8200, that means the e8200 has more cache for each of it's cores then the xeon no?
Your post is a bit confusing with the jpg you attached. The 2420 v2 xeon turbo clock is 2.7ghz But the v1 2420 has a turbo clock of 2.4ghz.. So either you have v1 and are overclocking or you have v2 and you are under clocking, which I ask why would you do that? Maybe it's the program your using to read the clock speed of your cpu? Plus xeons aren't generally known to be good gaming cpu's. The e8200 with a 2.66 ghz base clock are easily over clockable to 3.5 ghz with 1600 ddr3 ram.
• i just think 775 is bit too old.
• it is certanly 2420v2 and 2.7 boost is only on a single core, mainly it keeps 2.5 ghz or so
• Ivy bridge has shared L3 cache for all cores. i don't know much.. i think it will be 15MB - 2*(L2+L1) cache in size. cause 15 MB is probably L2+L3 and i hav heared that for some reason if something is in L1, it has to also be in L2 and in L3 cause that how it works for intel (that is why i put 2x there)
• i can turn off Hypertheding in bios... not sure how helpfull that would be.
• Ha! ddr3 RAM on 775 socket... well if you have that, then why not... i think it is kina a rare thing
I actually have xeon E5450... i think it can go up to 3.4 ghz or so... maybe i could test that...
