i7 is like for editing although it can be used for gaming, but I think the i5 is just as good for gaming. IDK which to get...

Of course i7 bro but it's more pricey just saying
 
I updated the post, I put a link to the PC I might get... Tell me what you guys think please.
 
Kinda obvi that i7 is better, but I can run most games fine on my i5.
 
Well, a Sandy Bridge i5 in my opinion is better than an i7 ivy bridge, because a Sandy Bridge can overclock much better than an i7 ivy bridge can.
 
i7 is obv. better, but if you're using it purely for gaming, i5 should be just fine.
 
i5's are extremely good for overclocking. A specific i5 (can't remember the name) can go to 4.2ghz starting in the late 3.5's. I'd go with an i5.

Could you link me please to the site!?
 
Just get a i5, Like I built my pc and I have a i5 2500k.
And don't buy it premade just build one, You get so much more for the buck.
 
i7 is better IMO. But currently my laptop has a i5 (Didn't want to spend the xtra $$)

Yeah that works, But I bought all mine from a local place.
Didn't feel like waiting for parts, So I just bought everything there including my monitor.
