Gaming not at all, the differance is when video rendering as most video rendering applications can use Hyper threading. Games dont take advantage of hyper threading. If you plan to overclock heavily the I7 is also a better bet but the I5 is by far your best choice for gaming.

Nope, get a 3570K. You will probably get a whole FPS or two difference going from i5 to i7 though so keep that in mind

Oh I kind of lied to ya' there.
I can get the i7 with the http://microcenter.com/product/401769/Z77A-G41_LGA_1155_ATX_Intel_Motherboard motherboard.
And the i5 with this motherboard http://microcenter.com/product/387554/Z77_Extreme4_LGA_1155_Z77_ATX_Intel_Motherboard

The G41 is voltage control locked. You won't be able to manipulate the voltage when overclocking. Just something to think about.
