Xeon processors are workhorses but not fast processors. For gaming you really just want a single Core i5 or i7 processor. There are a lot of technical reasons why but the main reason is that Xeon's at only 2.4GHz are going to be slower and you won't be able to use two processors while gaming anyway.

For gaming this is not a good PC to buy. This is a workstation setup not a gaming rig. If you want a workstation then it really depends on what your needs are but if you just want a gaming PC then this is a waste of money.
