I know that i7 is the cream of the crop today but an i5 with a k multiplier can be very well a choice for you as it provides you with over clocking options that can take you up to par with a stock i7, but you will still lose out on an i7 with a k multiplier.

but you still spend for additional cooling, not to mention you'll be consuming more electricity due to overclocking. if you can afford it, just get i7. you won't be disappointed in the long run.
