Pretty much any of them are great for gaming. Just buy the fastest you can afford. If you want to overclock get the ones ending with K.

I have the Core i5-4670K overclocked to a little over 4 Ghz and it has done everything I want from it.
I play at 1920x1080 (not the most demanding resolution anymore) and its perfect.
Just dont' forget get a good GPU, or else you'll bottleneck your performance.
If you spend all your cash on a processor and leave none for the rest, you can't have a balanced system

4670k is the best gaming CPU on the market in terms of price/performance. Like arges86 said, make sure you get a GPU also.

+1 for the i5-4670K http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CO8TBOW. It's definitely the best option right now. It's not much better than the 3570K but for the price it would be silly not to go with the 4670K.
