Model overview based on user reviews  
The Intel Xeon E3 v2 is an entry-level server processor that offers impressive performance for both work and gaming. It features high frequency on all cores and 8 threads, making it capable of efficiently pairing with high-end graphics cards like the GTX 1080, RTX 3060, or RX 6850 XT. Users appreciate its low TDP and cooler operation compared to similar processors, such as the FX-8370. While the stock cooler may not suffice under stress, replacing it with an inexpensive tower cooler significantly improves thermal performance. The processor is noted for its smooth graphics in games and fast operation, especially when paired with an SSD. However, it does not support multiprocessor systems. Overall, the Xeon E3 v2 is a great affordable choice for those seeking a reliable CPU for years to come.
Pros

Cons

Great affordable CPU for work and gaming
15 May 2023 
I got myself a replacement for the Core i5-3570 for just 850 UAH, and it noticeably runs faster. It shows 8 threads at 3.5 GHz across all cores in games and stress tests, with Windows showing 3.7-3.9 GHz. I installed it in my MSI B75A-G43 motherboard. The stock cooler couldn't handle it, as stress tests pushed it up to 80°C, so I dug out an old Cooler Master Hyper 212 tower cooler with 4 heat pipes and a 120 mm fan, which I bought a long time ago for 250 UAH. And this is just perfect - during stress tests, it only reaches 53°C, tops at 45°C in games, and stays at 30-35°C in normal use during summer, even with KPT-18 thermal paste. This processor will be more than enough for me for years, my RX 580 8Gb only uses it up to 35-40% in all games. Paired with an SSD Sata, Windows 10 runs like a jet and boots very quickly.
High frequency on all cores, 8 threads, low TDP, high performance allows it to easily pair with GTX 1080, RTX 3060, or RX 6850 XT and load them to 100%. Slightly more efficient and much cooler than the FX-8370, which has 8 full-fledged cores and a popcorn frequency of 4.3 GHz, offering smoother graphics in games compared to the Core i7-3770.
A box cooler is better replaced with an inexpensive tower.
