Intel Xeon E3-1230 v3 vs Core i5 4670K for games?

what kind of games? the rest of your spec?

The 4670k is pretty much the best gaming processor you can buy. I would highly recommend it.

They will be Asus GeForce GTX 770, 8GB(2x4GB) 1600mhz RAM, 1TB SATA 7200 rpm, Zalman Z11 Plus

I'd go with the i5 and an ASUS z87-A motherboard.

Depends on your willingness to overclock. If you intend to overclock, 4670k. If you don't, 1230 v3.
