I am thinking of getting this CPU with my build as it is within my price range:

However I am thinking that maybe I should get a better CPU so I wont need to overclock like the:

So should I get a better CPU or overclock? Also is the i7 one better than the i5

1. OC
2. No unless you do heavy rendering
3. if you can wait, wait for the better-for-overclockers devils canyon

What will you be using the computer for? I am sure the i5 will have plenty of oomph, especially if you overclock it.

For gaming, i5 4670k is enough.
For rendering , maybe the i7 is something to consider.
