Nice. Better buy both xeon at the same time (or be prepared to have to
replace the old one with a fresh one when adding the second:
availability of identical & compatible xeon is not warranted).
btw, xeon are not cheap (but pretty nice) when compared to i3/i5/i7.

But K10 is not compatible with xeon-socket, and it's old technology
(Bulldozer / Piledriver continue the serie)
some opteron 6200 (8 modules, 16 "cores")... but they top at 3.6GHz in
turbo mode... full load is less than 3 GHz.

while dreaming... Abu-Dhabi opteron 16 cores (2x4 modules) are
quad-processor ok. (Interlagos too)
Just need a naughty motherboard with 4 sockets... and a damn budget for
the cooling and the power supply (at 140W per cpu, you can sell on ebay
your old heater!)

Only have 24GB ram, and 6HT/12 cores... It's small, but it was affordable.
