would my build need an i7 4770k

Solution


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.

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
