I5 2500k vs. i5 3570k

[Maxwh2o]

What one is better for gaming? I will be playing BF3 and video editing. This is my first build and I haven't overclocked before but want to. I probably wont be able to get super high overclockes.
I have a ASRock P67 EXTREME4 GEN3

i5-2500k, the 3570K is not supported without a BIOS update!

If there was a mobo that I didn't need that would it be worth it?

Z77 chipset.

Would It be worth it over the i5 2500k?
