Slightly lower price.

Mobo is just as good.

CPU is as fast as an i7 4770(has the i7's hyperthreading as well which the i5 lacks)

PSU better quality but not modular.

I think you're playing too much for the CPU and too less for the GPU. This should get you more FPS. Also changed the Power Supply for a higher quality one.

Hope this helps.

A xeon-760 build doesn't seem optimized for gaming when you talk about price to performance.

The i7 4770k is way overkill for gaming rig. The Xenon is just no, not for gaming. The 8350 build, yes it does give a better gpu witch at least a 770 or 280x is needed if you want a good build to last for years to come on high settings.

i5 build would net you better single core performance, but youd need to come up with about $50 more to keep the 280x or a 770 and get an i5. But even having a 8350 chip, I use my system for video editing, autocad, solid works, and everything that needs those extra cores. But honestly even though I love my amd, id recommend an i5 and a gtx 770. i5 gives better performance for a few $ more, and the 770 gives an edge on 280x since the bit minding raised prices, if the 280x was still at launch price iid say go for it, but until then 770 all day long.

What's your concern with the Xeon+760? Can run games at High no trouble.

No problems with Xenon, just not in a budget gaming build does it ever make sense to me.

 

[AshyCFC]

If it's CHEAPER than the OP's original choice(with some part changing) it doesn't effect anything negatively, only benefits for me.

Don't get me wrong the i5 4440/8320 are great but the xeon is streets ahead.
