Hi! This is my first time posting on Tom's Hardware. Sorry if I am doing something wrong in accordance to the rules. 
I am planning on buying a processor for the computer I am building. I am thinking either an i5 4670k or an i7 4770k. I have some questions.
1. Should I get the i7 and spend more? I will be playing video games, and likely recording them and editing videos. I don't need a major boost in video editing speed, as this is just a hobby. I have a fair amount of time on my hands, so I can wait awhile for rendering and stuff. Plus, it's a difference of 90 dollars.
2. Is the stock fan good enough? I won't be overclocking either processor, no matter what my choice of processor is.
3. Does anyone think it would be a good idea to get the 4790k or 4690k, as opposed to the ones listed above?
By the way, this is my rig so far:
Nvidia GTX 770
Asus z97-AR
16GB Corsair Vengeance 1866
AX760 PSU
2TB Seagate Hybrid SSHD
Asus Xonar DX
