Hello, i have a i5 2500k
I have a friend that offer me one of these 2 cpu,s for pretty much nothing..

i7 4770k
i7 3770k

i use my pc for gaming only...

Atm i have this:

I5-2500k
Gigabyte z68ap-d3 rev 1
16GB Ram ddr3 1600mhz
Asus Strix rx 480 8GB OC

If i get the i7 4770k i will get a new motherboard(maybe a z97) and sell the one i have atm..opinions on wich should i go?
 
not really, i think its setting me back a bit, plus the ram its 1600mhz, i
mean overrall this would cost me like 100£ to upgrade, is it worth it?
 
This is the reason i just went straight to a 6700k. I couldn't stomach paying over £100 for an old 3770k.

No, a i7 3770k and a i7 4770k is gonna cost me 150£ in total, so i will sell one of them and keep the other..
or sell both and get something new... but some people told me that the i7 4770k will be more then enough for gaming now, correct?
 
What do you think of the z97 boards? been seeing some gaming k3 and k5 cheap.

or any opinions on a motherboard for this?
Gpu i have a asus strix rx 480 8 gb OC atm
