1440p Gaming PC Build (Need Help)

[sam441]

Hello,
I am trying to build this system:
GPU : Gigabyte GTX 980
CPU : i5-4690k or Intel Xeon E3-1231v3
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo
RAM: HyperX Beast 16 GB 2400
Motherboard: Asus Z97-A
PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2
SSD: Samsung EVO 850 250GB
Case: NZXT 340
Monitor: Samsung (U28D590D)
Total: 1900 EUR, Amazon, France

I just need some final thoughts before purchasing, any recommendations for changes? specially the cpu (i5-4690k or Xeon E3-1231v3)?
The system is intended for slight overclocking, be somewhat future proof, and handle games at 1440p/4k resolutions.
I know a single gtx 980 will not do 4k but will be fine for 1440p, I plan to throw another one in there once the price drop which explain the 750w psu and 4k monitor.
Note: I have stretched my budget as far as I could.
Thanks,

if you arent going to overclock then get the xeon, but if you are going to OC, than get the i5. both are good processors nonetheless. shouldn't you have an SSD for storage?

edit: not SSD i meant HDD

I was thinking. the xeon is locked at 3.4 GHz but have the i7 advanced technologies like hyper threading, the i5 on the other hand can be easily overclocked to 4.4 GHz but no advanced technologies.
so it comes down to higher GHz vs advanced technologies, with the focus on gaming performance what do you think should be my pick?
I have my old HDDs

if it's on gaming primarily, then get the i5, because the clock matters while gaming. besides there aren't that many games that can benefit from hyper threading. otherwise that build is looking good!
