If you only playing games, get the 2500k as the 2600k will not improve game play much.

Good luck

exactly, no need for the 2600k the 2500k will be sweet.

As above the 2500K is sufficient for gaming and will be for at least a couple of years.

Gotta agree with all the above 2500k will see you sweet.

It's unanymous !

Any extra cash you may have leaned towards the i7 with, channel it to the gpu.
