I recently upgraded my GTX 650 to a GTX 660 OC, and am now looking to drop some money in a new mobo and CPU.
As of right now my rig specs:
ASRock H55M/USB3 Mobo
Intel Core i5 750 @ 2.67Ghz
8GB Ram
Nvidia Geforce GTX660 OC
650 Watt power supply
And I was looking at these:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007KTY4A6/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
My question : Is this an optimal choice for gaming? And should I consider the i5-4670k over the i5-3570k due to LGA1155 being a dead socket? Or should I get the new i5 CPU that dropped this month and get that with the corresponding mobo? Or lastly should I stick with the CPU for a while and just get the 212+ and OC it?
