Hi guys, I have the following specs, and would like to upgrade my CPU and Motherboard.

GTX 780ti
i5 2550k 4.3GHz
8GB DDR3 RAM
1920 x 1080
Windows 8.1
Gigabyte Z68MA-D2H-B3 Motherboard Micro-ATX
NZXT Mid Tower

I was thinking of buying this and this, are they both suitable? I'm told that some people prefer i7 4770k's over 4820k's, but I'm not too familiar with CPU's to make that judgement.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It seems to me that they are pretty darn close. I would figure out which socket you are wanting to go with that will have the best upgrade ability for you in the future. Otherwise I doubt you will notice much of a difference in the two CPU's. But the 4770K does seem to perform slightly better than the 4820K in most cases.
