Yeah Irrelative, if you take any advice here please go with ksham's suggestion of the i5-4670k. While your name is Irrelative, the price/performance (in a gaming context) of the two cpus are equally irrelative 
. Despite what you might have heard.
I'd just hate to see you spend that extra ~$120 for practically unnoticeable gains.
