I heard that the i7 line in general are power hogs as compared to say an x3450. They use a lot more power for just a slight increase in performance (a few percentage at best).

Some places power is no big deal, I know a DC in VA who could do 60A 208V per cabinet for the rest of their space and have way more capacity left.. heh.

Not sure where you get this... the 860s and 870s are 73w tdp and at idle are around .75 amp... that's pretty low, unless you go specifically for a lower wattage processor. The i7 900s are more around 135w tdp.

Yeah, the 9xx are the power wasters, the i7-8xx and x34xx are roughly the same CPU but the i7 lacks ECC/Registered support which is highly desirable for larger ram capacity and the benefits of ecc/reg.

True, but for cheap servers they're great
