If you will be mainly gaming, the i7 only performs un-noticably better, since it has a little more cache. The HT would only be utilized if you are doing a LOT of multitasking or running VM's or other applications that will use all the threads.
nice build btw
thank you and i will bee gaming on it i just wanted to save money but not sacrifice the performance.
Than just stick with the i5. It won't be worth it to you to spend the extra $100 on the miniscule performance gain in gaming.
Depends on what you are using the system for. Gaming, generally, the i5 is a better choice. Some games take advantage of HT of the i7, but they are few and far between.
