Also consider that your 570 can do an insane OC with extreme cooling. Somewhere in the 6-7Ghz range and stable with it!
The 955XE is a good CPU but probably better to get a lesser one like the 670J + DDR2-800 Ram and OC it. If money is no object DDR2-800 Ram + 955XE will be very very quick as the Ram can hit 1.6Ghz FSB @ 1:1 and the unlocked lower multiplier should get you 5Ghz ish on air!

It will work you just don't get the VT features as that only works with the 975X chipset.
