i7 4770 k or i5 4670k

[Shaik Farooq]

Hey Guys which is a better choice for me since i only game and use for a little photoshop and video editing(Moviemaker)??

i5-4670k
As your main purpose is gaming. And i5 is sufficient for gaming/ minor photoshop/video editing.

i7 is the better CPU but for gaming you will notice no difference between the i7 and i5.
if your taking about best bag for your buck then the i5 is your best choice

Like the others have said, the 4670k is better for a gaming rig and sink the money you save in to more GPU power.

Few games can use more than 2-3 fast cores. That is why the 4670K is recommended for gaming. The extra hyperthreads if the i7 will not be used.
It is better to spend the $100 saved on the cpu towards a stronger graphics card.
One plus for the 4770K is thatI suspect that it is binned a bit better, and you can get a slightly better overclock out of it.

You are good to go Solid build!

If you want to make sure your rig lasts for a long time, you should go I7.

In your case it's either I7 or I5 and everything else is the same anyway. I5 is good now, BUT it's just that and we don't know what future holds, however let me say this - in Battlefield 4 there is a healthy difference between I5 and I7 and this game is only the first of many to come.

Eventually you will upgrade CPU again - with I7 that eventually will come one year later, which is a good investment, in my opinion.
