I've been trying to build a Gaming PC, and is Intel Xeon any better than the i7? Also, is i7 better than i5? I thought Xeon was for servers, but it seems like a great choice for a Gaming PC.

Xeon is not good for gaming, it's for servers and serious workstations. i5 4690k is better than most i7's when it comes to gaming. As I see your budget is not small, the best processor for any money is Intel Core i7 5930k. :)

Just one more question, Is AMD's processors any good for PCs?

They are powerfull but not quite good and reliable. Even an Intel I3 will outperform 90% of amd's.

If your not interested in overclocking the xeon e3 123* v* is absolutely perfect for gaming, its an i7 without igp taking up half the die, lower tdp and for less money. Dont listen to 'for server' nonsense its a smarter buy for gaming pc with dgpu, I game on one now.
