Hey Everyone,

Im rebuilding my PC and im hoping to get into some gaming. 

I have two processors at the moment one being the i7 2600 and the other being the i5 3570k.

I have recently bought the H55 cpu cooler so ill be looking to overclock the cpu.

Which one will give me better gaming performance?

 

Thanks in advance,

Lachlan

The performance would be about the same for gaming, the i7 is better for multitasking. 

The i5 can overclock but the i7 is locked.
