WOuld my MSI P55-GD55 support the XEON X5650?

[GodEmperor]

I am offered for 30eur this processor which seems to be a good improve for the money.

The specs of the board don't show compatibility with Xeon chips.

How sure would I be buying the processor?

Is there any way to mod the bios to support it?

Thanks in advance!

I see, then should I go for the L3426 or similar.

Thanks.

L3400 or X3400 series, depending on wanting 4/4 or 4/8 cores/threads.

The X3470 has the best factory turbo clocks if you are not overclocking.
