You should get an i5 processor rather than the xeon.And I don't think the gtx 750ti will be good enough for 1440p gaming in 60 fps you should get the gtx 960 or wait for the gtx 950 to come out next month :) 

First, thank for commenting. I need the xeon because it has a lower tdp than the i5 and so my cpu cooler will have to run less so it will be quieter. I also need a strix or at least a semi passive card so it can run quieter. I have ADHD and the noise is distracting. The 960 strix is just out of my price range, but the r7 370 2gb is in my price range.

If it is between the r7 370 2gb strix and the 750 ti stirx which should I get?

Thank you

You don't need a Xeon, they are way overpriced, just get an i7 4790k, so you can actually overclock, and get a 980 or R9 390x at the very least if you want to game at 1440p high to max settings. 

The xeon is $272, the i7 4790k is $340. The games I want to play are an indie game (transistor) and a game from 1998 (fallout 2) and as for hyper light drifter, it is pixelated. I don't need to overclock the processor and I can't afford the r9 360x. Thank you for the advice but I need help chosing between the 750 ti and the r7 370 2gb.

Thank you

if your playing older games you dont need 2 ssd's save that money and get an asus strix gtx 970 (i have one and the fans dont start even after playing crysis 2 for 30 min also you dont need 16 GB of RAM 8 is plenty for even the most current titles. also go with the fractal design define r5 for the case if you want silence. and finally go with a corsair RM 650 watt power supply. the fan wont turn on until you hit ( i believe) 40-45 percent load. which you wont if those are the titles your playing.

Thank you for commenting. The silverstone psu is semi passive and the cooler master silencio is very quiet and compact as well. The define r5 is a bit too big and expensive. I know that raid 0 will not help gaming performance significantly but the process of transfering data files will help. Though I will consider A 970 is incredible overkill for what I want to do. With the way things are headed 16gb won't be overkill (though I will admit that it is right now) The ssd in raid 0 and the 16gb of ram will not equate to enough extra money for a 970, though possible a 960. I am still thinking that an r7 370 or a 750 ti would be good. Also I realise that Vsync lag won't be an issue on these less demanding games. So using Vsync, ~40 fps is fine. An r7 370 or 750 ti is the decision I need help making.

Thank you,

You need a 970 minimum for that mate, 750ti is not gunna cut it, it barley does at 1080p let alone 1440p

Thank you for commenting. A 970 could max all settings in the games I am trying to play. Thanks for commenting though.

I can outrun it.
