Hello, im considering to buy the i7 3820, but then i saw the i7 3770k and the i5 3570k, and i dont know what i should choose.
ps sorry for my bad english.
 
The "K" suffix indicates an unlocked multiplier. This makes overclocking easier.

i7 CPUs are better suited for graphics design work (Photoshop, Autocad) and for video editing.

i5 CPUs are adequate for gaming.

The decision regarding which one to buy depends on the pricing and budget. Good luck!

ok so im going to buy the i5

 
MicroCenter has the best prices on CPUs and also on CPU/motherboard combos. Hope you are near one.

Edit: Never mind - I just checked and noticed that you are in Portugal. Good luck with your CPU purchase!
