I know people are saying get a i5 or i7 for gaming but why when they cost so much more, This processor can run all games that are out with no problem, i can get a computer with this for £75/$115

For gaming an i5 or i7 CPU would be a better buy ;)

Xeon processorers are made for server computers. If you want a computer for gaming you're far better of with an i5 CPU. Also the price on xeon CPUs are rather expensive, and you can get a i5/i7 with equal gaming performance for half the price ;)

but for that I have to change my casing+mobo+ram which will become much expensive than xeon..

Your current rig are (P)LGA771-socket with DDR2 RAM. Xeon W3520 uses LGA 1366-socket and DDR3 RAM. So you actually has to change both mobo+ram for an xeon upgrade as well. So either way you have to replace mobo+ram for both xeon and i5/i7 upgrade. And an Xeon CPU alone often costs more than an i5+mobo+ram with similar performance.
