Hi guys! Im buyed the old AsRock Z77 Pro 4, witch cpu is the best for overclocking and price? i5 3570k or i5 2500k?

Either would do, but the 3rd Gen i5 would run hotter due to the architecture and the density of the chip. You will need to make sure you have aftermarket cooling for that(or either) processor.

So i5 2500k is better? Im will paired these cpus with radeon hd 7870 so the i5 2500k is the better option?
