Lga 771 best xeon

First, would the xeon work in this mobo asus p5ql-e (with 771 to 775 mod) also what is the best xeon I could put in it, instead of Q9650 that I was going to do before I found out about the 771 to 775 mod.

If you are overclocking anyways take one with a 1333 FSB and overclock it. Beyond the x5450 its likely not worth the extra price, there will be minimal difference in performance beyond that. 

Xeon e5649@4.4 GHz on Asus Rampage II Extreme or Gigabyte x58a-OC (whatever I feel like to set up at a time) , 6x4 GB Kingston HyperX 1600, Gainward GTX 670 Phantom, Samsung 840 Evo 240 GB, BeQuiet L8 530W

Must check the max TDP of your motherboard match TDP of the CPU...if the CPU is 150w, great chances your motherboard is limited to something like 136w.
