Solution
NO! Your 3570k will still be a very strong cpu for years now. In fact, you will need to replace your 780 before you'll need to replace your i5.

Holy cow man, your 3570k trumps the 8350. If by next gen you mean next generation consoles, then don't worry about it. The PC is the real next gen system. Consoles are old and busted before they even launch.
