i5 is plenty for most games.. it's VERY rare an i7 will net you an increase. I'd take the savings and try get a 240GB SSD (MX200, Arc100, 850 or similar)

 

And thats a very mediocre PSU.

I don'T PreSS caPs.. I juST Hit THe keYboARd so HarD iT CriTs :P

Get a different PSU. Look at EVGA's G2, Corsair's HXi, AXi and RM, or BeQuiet!'s line of products. at worst, look at NZXT or Fractal. The CSM series is pretty mediocre. I'd also go for 850w for some extra overhead.

i5 vs i7 but with a 240GB SSD and an EVGA G2 PSU.. much better quality (and cheaper) than the corsair.
