This computer is for gaming, & I don't know if I should have better ventilation or a better CPU.

If you're only going to play games then go for the Intel Core i5 4690K. If you are going to play games, edit video's and do other things like that then go for the Intel Core i7 4790K. If you don't plan to buy a new processor then go for the Corsair Carbide Series Air 540 High Airflow ATX Cube Case.
