I know for most its an easy comparrison but i dont do much put alot of strain on the cpu. I pretty much want to know if the 6 core would be better for playing games like dayz. Will the 5820k give me any benifit to outweigh the price for the cpu and board?

if you're only gaming a i5 will do, but a i7 4790k will be better if you are set on a i7

There are a few games using real multicores like FSX. For FSX 5820k is king. Anything else 4 real cores are enough. Any Haswell i5 will be enough.

If you're strictly playing games, you won't see any tangible (if any) difference. If you enjoy streaming & multitasking like a beast; then get the i7. My personal recommendation would be to go with the i7. Having hyperthreadiing there in case you need it is a piece of mind I enjoy having.
