Question Looking to buy an Xeon CPU for my 1150 board as an upgrade

[NerdyComputerGuy]

One thing I'd like to ask is I will probably go anything over the 1230 v3, the only difference between the higher models is the clock speed by like 100-300 mhz, i think the max is 4ghz.

Is it worth the extra £10-40 difference with only 100-300 mhz difference or should I just get the 1230 / 1231?

There is also the 4770 and 4790, not overclockable but under £100.

a 1230 is like £80

Thanks!

I purchased two XEON's from EBAY for two Z97 setups that I was upgrading on a budget. Can't beat the prices.

That doesn't answer my question though, is the 100-300 mhz extra on the higher end models really worth the price increase or will i not notice any speed difference?

It's not a huge difference.
