This Xeon CPU is based on the Harpertown architecture and can be modded to work in many mainstream LGA 775 boards, thanks to it's clock speed it delivers an great perfomance, but is outperformed by any Core i5 CPU on the same clock speed. Gaming-wise is one the best upgrade paths for LGA 775 if your board support it, for office or web browsing better consideer the Pentium E6700 or the Core 2 Duo E8500. Any GPU better than the GTX 1050 Ti will be bottlenecked by this CPU on modern AAA games. Most of them will be playable on constant 30 FPS. This CPU can be easily overclocked to 3.8GHz-4GHz if you have the right board, the perfomance incrase will be noticeable.
