Basically a cheaper I7 2nd Gen with almost the same performance and you can find it cheap in the used market. Probs the best 1155 Socket CPU in terms of performance for price.

Intel 2nd Gen CPUs support PCIe2.0 only limiting you in NvME SSD and good graphic cards perfomance, slower with memory and draws significantly more power (worth to worry at DCs).

Meu Xeon E3-1245 V2 é fantástico!!! Muito melhor que o i5 antigo que eu tinha, muito superior a muitos processadores da atualidade.

when your budget is only enough for e-waste, these old 1155 xeon with quadro P4000 is already good enough for 800p gaming.
