Is this worth it or not?

I have an i5 3470 and I can purchase a G1 Sniper M3 for $150 AUD, around $100~ USD. I plan to buy a used/refurbished/brandnew 3770K/3570K in the future and overclock it.

Overclocking needs better cooling, so you have to upgrade your cooling system.
if you can't afford better cooling system, its not worth it , cuz you don't want to get anything fried up.

Yes I know that I plan to get AIO in the future aswell.

Yes, its worth it , if the 3770k/3570k you get can get a stable run on 4.4/4.6ghz(OC)

Do you think it's still somewhat worth it to get a 2600k/2700k these days considering they are still somewhat powerful especially OC'd?
