I5 2400 Upgrade to an i7 3770k?

[Altiris]

Is it worth upgrading an i5 2400 to an i7 3770k? I will overclock it and I am wondering whether to get a Corsair H80, Antec 920 water cooler or a Hyper 212 Evo.

For what purpose? If you are doing 3d rendering and editing then it is worth it.

For gaming and exporting videos on Adobe Premiere Pro.

If there is editing involved with Adobe then it will benefit from the extra thread capability of the I7
