I currently have a i7 920 Do Stepping 2.66 CPU that is OC to 4Ghz, and was wondering what current CPU would be a nice boost to decrease my video encoding times i also play games on the PC. Would a i5 3570K 3.40GHz be a good shout or would i7 3770K chip be better suited (at £100 more than the i5?)?.....or is the new haswell chip going to bring any more performance increase, when is Haswell out by the way?

Going from a i7 920 to a???, for encoding and gaming?
