Since this is my secondary rig I am trying to spend the least amount on it as possible. The build is mostly made up of my old parts that were once in my main rig. As for that Xeon CPU, would that be much better than my 8320? They are roughly the same age, but the Xeon is actually clocked much lower. Thanks for your reply!
Here is a video comparing an overclocked x3430 (4 core 4 thread) against the 8700k.
You should expect sightly better performance than this with an overclocked x3440 as it is 4 core 8 thread.
