I can either get a i7 2600k with a gtx 480, or I can get an i5 2500k with a gtx 580? Which would be better for gaming. All I do is game and browse the web? Is the i7 2600k a lot better than the i5?

gtx 580 is better then gtx 480 for gaming

i5 2500k is the same performance as i7 2600k for gaming, no difference whatsoever

get the i5 2500k and gtx 580

+1 again for 2500k and gtx580. Just make sure you have a good power supply to power that power hungry card.

NO doubt the i5 2500k and the 580. Just an all around better combo.
