Wait... You're planning to spend $25000 on a build? I honestly think that you should spend that on a car or a down payment on a house or something that is actually needed.

Thats really bad for that money. Here is what I made: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/rpTpVn, use the rest of the money for something good. That build will run you EVERYTHING.

I really want bad that Xeon CPU, it kills everything!!!

Xeons kill everything in editing and rendering, but it's about equal to the i5-4690K.

Technically, Xeons are Core i7s without the integrated GPU.
I must say, there is about 15000-20000$ of wasted money in the first build and about 2000-4000$ of wasted money in the second..

Xeon CPUs are not for gaming.. It is for editing or servers..
