Was thinking about dropping the Noctua cooler since I won't need to OC / can't OC. Purpose of this build is programming, video games, a little CAD + rendering + computation. Will use Windows and will have one virtual machine running Debian. Want something powerful, small, and silent.
Please don't recommend any i5 processors since I need the hyper threading. Also, 256 GB of storage is more than enough for me. Thanks!

that's a lot of ram, but nice build overall
i don't know much about that processor, but i doubt there will be any bottlenecking
if u are using it as gaming/ workstation u might want to check out some CPU liquid coolers imo

are you retarded op

Why do you want a Xeon? Just get a 6700k. Probably gonna want an additional HD too.

>>55404681
6700k is $100 more. Is it really worth the .6 GHz and iGPU and higher TDP?

>>55404681
xeon has ECC ram and more stable and better QC too
way less crashes and cheaper for similar performance
>>
a Xeon only makes sense in a multisocket build, dude
Get a fucking i7
>>
>>55404763
You have no idea what you're talking about. That Xeon is on par with most i7s. It's cheaper because it doesn't have a iGPU. Go look up the specs of OPs CPU.

>>55404341
He said he can't OC, so is there really a point in getting an after market cooler? Maybe stock will be fine. Not sure if Xeons come with better fans than the comsumer Core CPUs though...
