BTW, that 3770 outperforms that Xeon, ECC memory or not.
You are comparing a gaming platform to a workstation. If you want to compare realistically, add premium support (on site), two high end CPU's, at least 32GB RAM, some high end GPU's (Quadro/Firepro) and start look at general build quality and watch the premium shrink.
