Thanks for the reply. I'm probably going to have to get a strong 560ti card (I don't really mind, because looking back a I don't really need a 570) to have money towards the motherboard, and the SSD (I'm probably going to get this SSD http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...) is going to be only 64GB for my OS.

The i7 2700k is 1 Ghz faster, which you could do 3+ Ghz on the 2600k hardly even overclocking the thing. Save your money as it's not worth it. The FPS difference would be minimal. Intel basically just released it as the *Punch in the face* to Bulldozer, which failed by the way.

Ah ok. Thanks for the explanation. I'll save my self a good $50 and get the 2600k.
